While Aditya Dhar's film Dhurandhar: The Revenge has been shattering records at the box office, it has also faced criticism from a section of viewers, some of whom have labelled it “propaganda”.
Filmmaker Priyadarshan, under whom Aditya Dhar began his career as an assistant director, reacted to the criticism surrounding the film.
Priyadarshan defends Dhurandhar The Revenge against propaganda, saying, “There’s nothing like propaganda. You are just bringing the truth in front of the people.”
He added, “When the whole of India has accepted it, then why do some people’s opinions matter? India has watched and accepted it. There are no bigger hits. Do you think those people who have watched the film are fools?”
The film, helmed by Aditya Dhar, stars Ranveer Singh in the lead role, along with Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, R Madhavan and Rakesh Bedi in key roles.
Dhurandhar: The Revenge has so far managed to collect over ₹1,200 crore worldwide and more than ₹770 crore net in India.
