Did we like Dhurandhar? Aditya Dhar's spy thriller everyone’s arguing about

With Dhurandhar stirring up equal parts excitement, criticism, and speculation, we dive into what the film is actually doing, from its massive three-hour-plus scale to the way it blends nationalism, espionage, and high-gloss Bollywood action.

We talk about the performances that anchor the story — Ranveer Singh’s brooding intensity, Akshaye Khanna’s villain avatar, Sanjay Dutt's screen presence, and Arjun Rampal's charisma , and where the film lands when it comes to storytelling, politics, and spectacle. We also look at the conversations around female representation, real-world inspiration, and why this movie seems to divide audiences as much as it thrills them.

Threaded through all of this is a simple question: what makes a blockbuster work today, and is Dhurandhar reaching for something bigger than its genre?
