Actor Yami Gautam has spoken about the impact of her husband Aditya Dhar's two-part film Dhurandhar on the Indian film industry. In a recent interview, she reflected on the film's success and how it signifies a shift back to prioritizing strong scripts. Yami stated that Dhurandhar's success is not just about breaking box office records, but also about people wanting to watch high-quality films in theatres.
According to Yami, Dhurandhar's success has pushed the industry to focus on the basics of filmmaking, such as scripts. She emphasized that the film's success is not just about its commercial performance, but also about the fact that people are willing to watch and support good films. Yami also revealed that her and Aditya's personal perspectives have not changed despite the film's success, and that they remain humble and thankful for the blessings they have received.
Dhurandhar, which stars Ranveer Singh, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, R Madhavan, Sanjay Dutt, and Rakesh Bedi, was released in December last year and went on to become a blockbuster, earning over ₹1,300 crore worldwide. The sequel, Dhurandhar: The Revenge, was released in March 2026 and has surpassed the lifetime collection of its predecessor, collecting ₹1,782 crore worldwide and ₹1,113 crore net in India.
