Akshaye Khanna’s FA9LA moment From Dhurandhar goes viral as rapper Flipperachi sends love to India

Akshaye Khanna viral scene

When Dhurandhar arrived in cinemas on 5 December, it didn’t just open—it erupted. Audiences walked in expecting a gripping Ranveer Singh thriller, and while they certainly got that, something entirely unexpected stole the spotlight.

A single sequence, set to the pulsating track FA9LA, featuring Akshaye Khanna letting loose in a way no one saw coming, suddenly became the moment everyone was talking about.

The song, created by Bahraini rapper Flipperachi, has taken on a life of its own. It’s everywhere—on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and in living rooms where fans are enthusiastically recreating the now-iconic steps.

The beat, the energy, and Akshaye’s effortless spontaneity have combined to turn FA9LA into a cultural wave.

And the rapper behind the track has been watching the excitement unfold.

Overwhelmed by the love pouring in from Indian listeners, Flipperachi shared a heartfelt video message on Instagram Stories.

As quoted by NDTV, he said, "Big shoutout to India for making FA9LA the number 1 track in viral (on Spotify). I am putting the link down here for the official song on YouTube if you haven't. - your boy Flipperachi. Love you India."

His sincerity struck a chord with fans, who eagerly circulated the clip, thrilled to see the artist acknowledge the Indian audience that helped propel the track to the top.

While FA9LA’s beat is undeniably addictive, it was Akshaye Khanna’s impromptu dancing that pushed the scene into viral territory. Known for his gravitas and intense presence, Akshaye surprised everyone by breaking into playful, uninhibited steps that felt charmingly real.

The internet fell in love instantly. Viewers couldn’t believe how naturally cool he looked, and the fact that the moment wasn’t choreographed made it even more special.

Vijay Ganguly, the choreographer behind the track, shared the delightful backstory with Mid-Day:

"The song is a celebration of Akshaye's character being crowned as the Sher-E-Baloch… he said he would dance a bit when he walks in… Akshaye entered the scene, took it from that point, and spontaneously performed."
