Dhurandhar: Plot, review, controversy, and more
Before the release, Dhurandhar had a brush-off with a legal case which was filed by the late Major Mohit Sharma's family. Reportedly, they had moved into the court in demand of an urgent stay on the release, alleging that the film takes unauthorised inspiration from the army officer's life. Later, the Delhi High Court had dismissed the petition.
The matter had arisen after the release of the film's trailer, in which the fans began to draw comparisons between Ranveer Singh's character, who is reportedly a covert Indian intelligence agent, and the late Major Mohit Sharma, an Ashoka Chakra (posthumous) and Sena Medal awardee. Major Sharma served with the Indian Army’s 1 Para (Special Forces) and was killed in action on March 21, 2009, in Kupwara, Jammu & Kashmir.
For the unversed, Dhurandhar is inspired by true events. The movie begins in 1999 with the Kandahar hijack incident, when an Indian flight's passengers were held hostage for seven days, and the country was forced to release three terrorists, including Masood Azhar.
According to WION's Pragati Awasthi, “Dhurandhar is a complete cinematic experience, carried by impeccable performances, a gripping and thrilling plot, and an overall execution that is genuinely outstanding. From the very beginning, Dhurandhar sets a gritty and thrilling tone. Its pacing and screenplay constantly make you wonder what will happen next.”
The action-thriller is written, directed, and co-produced by Aditya Dhar. Produced by Jyoti Deshpande, Aditya Dhar, and Lokesh Dhar under the banners Jio Studios and B62 Studios. Apart from Ranveer Singh, the film also stars Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sara Arjun, Rakesh Bedi, Manav Gohli, Raj Zutshi, Saumya Tandon, and Bimal Oberoi, among others.
