He is the son of renowned veteran actor Pankaj Dheer. Pankaj Dheer became famous for his role as Karna in BR Chopra’s famous ‘Mahabharata’. Nikitin made his mark in Bollywood with the 2008 film ‘Jodha Akbar’. Nikitin Dheer played the role of Sharifuddin Hussain in Ashutosh Gowarikar’s epic “Jodha Akbar”, in which he played the rival brother-in-law of Hrithik Roshan’s “Akbar”.
He won the hearts of the audience with every character
However, his experience on the sets of Jodha Akbar was not fun at all. In an interview with Siddharth Kannan, he said, “It was a very bad experience for me, so much so that I told my father that I was on the wrong path and would have to rethink my life.” Over the years, Nikitin has added several hits to his filmography, starring alongside stars like Salman Khan in ‘Ready’ and ‘Dabangg 2’ and Akshay Kumar in ‘Housefull 3’. By becoming a terrifying villain, he gained immense fame in the industry. She also played the roles of Ravana and Kansa in many religious TV series.

He became famous for playing a villain
Nikitin landed his breakthrough role in 2013, playing the villain Thangabali in ‘Chennai Express’ with Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone. Directed by Rohit Shetty, the film was a huge success, grossing around Rs 400 crore worldwide and becoming Shah Rukh’s highest-grossing film at that time. After the premiere, Nikitin became one of the most searched stars on the Internet, as the audience was very curious about the actor who played this character so well on the big screen. During this film, King Khan and Nikitin became good friends.
Even after he became a star, he fought for films.
Despite the success of “Chennai Express”, Nikitin had to put in a lot of effort to get a job in films. He has been out of work for almost 11 months. In an interview with Times of India, she confessed that she was not receiving any offers from Bollywood or the southern film industry at that time. After a long time, he got the Telugu film ‘Kanche’ and then he started getting offers from many Bollywood films.
