Karan Johar has reacted to the rising buzz around Dhurandhar 2, admitting that he is yet to watch the film but is already feeling left out of the conversation. The filmmaker took to Instagram Stories to share his excitement, revealing that he is currently stationed at a remote shooting location with no access to a cinema.
Despite not having seen the film, Johar said the overwhelming response it has been receiving has only increased his anticipation. Referring to it as “Dhurandhar FOMO,” he noted that the constant chatter around the film has made him eager to catch it as soon as possible.
He also expressed appreciation for the way members of the film industry have come together in support of the project. Calling it a positive sign, Johar highlighted how the collective appreciation for an Indian film reflects a sense of unity within the fraternity.
Directed by Aditya Dhar and starring Ranveer Singh, the film is set against the backdrop of Lyari in Karachi, an area known for its history of conflict and gang rivalries. The narrative weaves together elements of covert intelligence operations with references to major geopolitical events, including the Kandahar hijack, the 2001 Parliament attack and the 26/11 Mumbai attacks.
As the film continues to generate strong reactions from audiences and industry figures alike, Johar’s response reflects the wider curiosity and excitement surrounding Dhurandhar 2, even among those who are yet to watch it.
