'Dhurandhar': Aditya Dhar’s Sequel Receives Rave Review from Anupam Kher.webp

New Delhi, March 22 Actor Anupam Kher praised Aditya Dhar's directorial "Dhurandhar: The Revenge" and said it was not just an outstanding film but an experience and an emotional journey.

Featuring Ranveer Singh in the lead role, the sequel to Dhar's 2025 film was released on Thursday and has already crossed the Rs 300 crore net mark at the domestic box office.

Also starring R Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, Sara Arjun and Rakesh Bedi, the film was released in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam languages.

Kher shared a video on his Instagram handle on Saturday.

"Dhurandhar" is outstanding! Aditya Dhar is a rockstar! Sometimes, words fall short. You walk out of a film… and there’s a silence within you that says everything, yet explains nothing. That’s what watching #Dhurandhar felt like. It is not just a film. It is an experience. An emotion. A journey that quietly enters your heart and then refuses to leave. There are moments in 'Dhurandhar' that don’t just play on screen—they stay with you, long after the lights come on," the actor wrote in his post.

"I have tried to capture what I felt in the video I am sharing along with this post… but honestly, I could have gone on and on. Because some stories are not meant to be described! They are meant to be felt. 'Dhurandhar' is one such story. Congratulations to the entire team for creating something so powerful, so magical, so moving, and so deeply human. Watch it. Experience it. And then sit with it. And #SanjayDutt is brilliant! EVERY ‘INDIAN’ WILL BE PROUD OF THIS FILM. JAI Hind! #Indian #Proud," he added.

Singh left a comment on the video, thanking the veteran actor. "The words I have written seem inadequate after watching this, Sir. I have been deeply inspired by your work, Sir. Your words mean a great deal to me, Sir. I bow to you, Sir," he wrote.

Set in the Lyari town of Karachi, an area known for its history of gang wars and violent turf battles, "Dhurandhar" revolved around covert intelligence operations against the backdrop of geopolitical and terror events such as the Kandahar plane hijacking, the 2001 Parliament Attack, and the 26/11 Mumbai attacks.

The sequel charts the rise of Singh’s character, Hamza Ali Mazari, in the Karachi underworld while also delving into his origins as Jaskirat Singh Rangi, tracing the journey of the young man who eventually transforms into the covert operative.

The film is produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Lokesh Dhar.
