The film is against our religion, it is shameful… PAK actor Imran Abbas angry at the praise of Dhurandhar in Pakistan.
Ranveer Singh starrer film ‘Dhurandhar’ is creating a stir at the box office these days. This spy thriller film directed by Aditya Dhar has earned more than Rs 600 crore worldwide. The audience has liked it very much in India, but it has become embroiled in controversies in the neighboring country Pakistan.
Many people are calling it anti-Pakistan and the film has also been banned there. Now Pakistani actor Imran Abbas has expressed anger at the people of his own country who are praising the film.
Film success and controversies
‘Dhurandhar’ was released on 5 December 2025 and quickly became a hit. In the film, Ranveer Singh plays the role of an Indian agent who infiltrates the underworld of Pakistan. The story is related to gang war and terrorism in Lyari area of Karachi. In Pakistan it is being called negative publicity. Many Gulf countries have also banned the film. Pakistan People’s Party has also objected that the image of their party has been tarnished in the film.
Imran Abbas’s anger
Pakistani actor Imran Abbas wrote a long post on social media criticizing those Pakistanis who are praising ‘Dhurandhar’. He said that this film openly shows a story against Pakistan, our country, our religion and our identity. The film is shameful, but what is even more shameful is that people in our society are promoting it. People are making reels, sharing AI images and praising the artists.

Imran further wrote that the film may be well made or the production may be excellent, but it cannot take the place of self-respect. There should not be any story of hatred or against any country or religion in cinema. If such a film against India is made in Pakistan, then the whole of India will reject it, which will be right. But we are calling our own criticized film as entertainment. This is not open-mindedness, but shamelessness. Even educated people are doing this, which is even more sad.
Debate broke out in Pakistan
This statement of Imran has sparked debate in Pakistan. Some people agree with him, while some consider the film to be just entertainment. ‘Dhurandhar’ has again exposed the old tension between India and Pakistan. The success of the film continues and it has been included in the biggest hits of 2025.
