Tigmanshu Dhulia has shared his thoughts on the current state of mainstream Hindi cinema. The filmmaker said he enjoyed Dhurandhar Part 1, but was not happy with its story.

Filmmaker Tigmanshu Dhulia has recently opened up about mainstream Hindi cinema and used Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar as one of the examples of the industry's changing approach to storytelling. While he praised the first instalment of the Aditya Dhar-directed franchise, the filmmaker questioned its story. Dhulia made the comments during an event organised by The Wire around the theme The State of Media and Film Industry. Dhulia praises Dhurandhar Part 1, but questions its story Speaking at the event, he said, "Thanks to corporate culture, only one kind of film is being made today. Every film is a fictional biopic.

"This song is dedicated to Maharana Pratap ji. We are using this song to glorify the villains in the movie. Is this right?

Director Sanjay Gupta has spoken about the time when Shah Rukh Khan was threatened by the underworld. He revealed that the actor chose to stand his ground despite the risk.

There was a time in Bollywood when several actors and filmmakers faced threats from the underworld over projects, making the issue a serious concern for the industry. And Shah Rukh Khan was no exception. Today, he is called one of Bollywood’s biggest stars, but during his early years, he too found himself facing threats and pressure over his professional decisions. Speaking on the Hussain Zaidi Files podcast, director Sanjay Gupta recalled Shah Rukh’s reaction when he found himself in such a situation. Also Read: After King, Shah Rukh Khan to return to romance with big-budget project, says report Sanjay Gupta on SRK response to underworld "The only guy in the film industry, Shah Rukh Khan, when he was threatened, he said, ‘I will never do the film or show, I am a Pathaan, just shoot me if you want’. I am not scared of you, but I will not work with you and not do shows for you. He actually earned their respect. They also must have felt that there’s at least one person...," Gupta revealed. However, the threats were not something the actor could simply ignore. He was reportedly provided police protection for several years during that period.

Wax then asked him directly, “You’re seriously saying someone calls you and says be in my film or I’ll blow your head off?” He responded, "Not as nicely as you’re saying it." When asked whether he had personally received death threats, the actor confirmed, "Oh yes, on many occasions… I had a lot of security for three years."
