He was the surprise package of Khakee.

Rajkumar Santoshi's cop drama engaged on every level with its spiffy script and terse drama. And Akshay Kumar's turn as a corrupt policeman with a sense of humour was especially worthwhile.

Despite the presence of so many actors (Amitabh Bachchan, Ajay Devgan, Aishwarya Rai), AK held his own.

A truly rocking act.
