Vinod Khanna was considered one of the most good looking actors in
Hindi cinema
, who gave quite a tough competition to Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra in those times. Khanna is still talked about, for his handsome looks and screen presence. Both his songs, Rahul Khanna and Akshaye Khanna have been able to make their own mark within the industry. Akshaye even worked with his father in his debut film, 'Himalaya Putra' in 1997. However, the '
Taal
' actor had admitted that he would never ever work with his father again.
In an interview, Khanna had said that some actors like Amitabh Bachchan and his father have such a screen presence that one cannot shine besides them on screen. He had said in an interview with IANS, "There are certain people whom you shouldn't work with. My dad is one of them. Amitabh Bachchan is another. To stand in the same frame as them confidently is impossible. They've such an overpowering screen presence.It's very difficult to match my father on screen. It's that quality - either you have it or you don't have it. Very frankly I don't have it. I just don't have that kind of presence. There're some actors who just wash you away on screen. My dad is one of them."
Akshaye also confessed that he doesn't even look closer to his father and hence, could never do a biopic on him. He said, "I don't look anywhere close to my father... Not an option. I haven't ever thought about it (making a biopic on Vinod) so I can't say. But I think biopics by nature, I suppose as accurate as they can be, the better for an actor. It's very challenging as well as risky for an actor to portray a real-life character because you are portraying someone who actually existed. So, it becomes really difficult."
Akshaye was last seen as Aurangzeb in Vicky Kaushal starrer '
Chhaava
'.
