Actor Akshay Kumar has joined the growing list of celebrities praising Dhurandhar, the Aditya Dhar directorial that has been making waves at the box office. The film, starring Ranveer Singh, has already drawn appreciation from several industry names, and Akshay’s recent remarks have added to the buzz around it.
Speaking during a YouTube interaction with Shubhankar Mishra, the actor described the film as a well-constructed narrative that goes beyond surface storytelling. He highlighted how the film attempts to explore deeper questions related to the country, weaving together multiple perspectives into a cohesive storyline. According to him, the makers appear to have drawn from various sources to build a narrative that feels grounded yet cinematic.
Akshay also pointed to the film’s portrayal of complex situations involving different agencies and cross-border dynamics, noting that it manages to balance realism with a larger-than-life presentation. He remarked that the film captures real issues while expanding them into an engaging cinematic experience, adding that such storytelling reflects how cinema is evolving.
The sequel, Dhurandhar: The Revenge, released in March, has seen strong footfall in theatres worldwide, continuing the momentum set by the first instalment that arrived in December last year. The film has been widely discussed for both its scale and subject. Meanwhile, Akshay is currently seen in Bhooth Bangla, a horror-comedy that reunites him with director Priyadarshan after several years.
