Dhurandhar: The Revenge
I was in the countryside of California, finally made a trip to LA just to watch Dhurandhar.
Shabash. Bravo. Brilliant once again, @AdityaDharFilms. I genuinely don’t know what to say… anything I add may only become noise over something that already…

Dhurandhar: The Revenge. I was in the countryside of California, and finally made a trip to LA just to watch Dhurandhar. Shabash. Bravo. Brilliant once again, @AdityaDharFilms. I genuinely don’t know what to say; anything I add may only become noise over something that already speaks for itself. I’d rather call you. Everyone has done exceptional work. But I want to specifically acknowledge two less celebrated crafts that elevate this film into something far greater:1. Vikash Nowlakha’s world-class cinematography, and 2. @sainisjohray’s exceptional production design,” he wrote.
“In cinema, the camera and production design are married to each other. Unless both are in complete harmony, a film cannot rise to the level of a masterpiece. In Dhurandhar, what we witness is pure synergy. Both Vikash and Saini Johray have done groundbreaking work that will stand as a benchmark for a long time. My heartfelt best to both of you. And a special salute. And Aditya, just an unsolicited word from experience: You are sharp, and you know your path. Just stay mindful of the ecosystem, it can be as vicious as it is seductive. And everyone else in #TeamDhurandhar, you rock,” he added.
The first Dhurandhar ended with the 26/11 attacks and the second part, Dhurandhar: The Revengeshows how Singh’s spy Hamza Ali Mazari goes on to extract revenge. It also features R Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, Sara Arjun and Rakesh Bedi, who are reprising their roles.
Produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Lokesh Dhar, the film released in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam languages.
