A Pakistani viewer has gone viral on Reddit after praising Aditya Dhar's Netflix release 'Dhurandhar' for its accurate portrayal of Karachi and Urdu culture. The viewer, born in Karachi, was pleasantly surprised by the film's attention to detail, which made him nostalgic for his hometown. The viewer, who has lived overseas, shared screenshots from the film and praised Dhar's research, saying it was 'deep and impressive.' He noted that the film's references to Imran Khan and Urdu phrases were spot on, and even mentioned a fictional news channel called 'Karachi Roznama' that he found endearing. What's more, the viewer refuted claims that the film was anti-Pakistani, saying that it 'didn't feel that way at all' and that the research and depth of the film were commendable. 'Dhurandhar,' a film about an Indian spy who infiltrates a Pakistani crime syndicate, has been a massive hit worldwide, collecting over ₹1,300 crore. The film's OTT release on Netflix saw it trending at #1 in Pakistan, and fans are eagerly awaiting the sequel, 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge,' which is set to release on March 19.
