Ravi Kishan's 2013 Bhojpuri action movie, Dhurandhar: The Shooter, is trending on social media due to the massive popularity of Ranveer Singh's blockbuster Dhurandhar franchise. Ravi Kishan reacted to the surprise resurgence, admitting he never saw it coming.

The actor quipped, “Yes, I do know. Mere zindagi mein aise dhoom dhadake hote hai! [Such explosive things happen in my life!]” He joked about the sudden financial windfall for the old film's owners: “Its producers and its right holders have suddenly become crorepatis now!”

The Bhojpuri action film Dhurandhar: The Shooter was directed by Deepak Tiwari and led by Ravi Kishan and Sangeeta Tiwari. While searching for Ranveer's movies online, fans stumbled upon Ravi Kishan’s older film instead.

Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar, a massive espionage thriller, has grossed over ₹3,100 crore worldwide, making it the first Indian film franchise to cross the ₹3,000 crore mark.
