Dhurandhar continues to draw strong reactions not just from audiences but also from across the film industry. The Aditya Dhar directorial, led by Ranveer Singh and Akshaye Khanna, has been receiving widespread acclaim, and actor Vivek Oberoi has now added his voice to the conversation with an emphatic endorsement of the film.
Taking to social media, Vivek revealed that he watched Dhurandhar after missing it during its theatrical run in the GCC and described the experience as deeply affecting. In a long and reflective post, he said the film goes beyond conventional cinema, evoking the silence, loss and emotional weight associated with the lives of martyrs and their families. According to him, the film confronts uncomfortable truths rather than offering easy outrage, making it a difficult but necessary watch.
Vivek reserved special praise for director Aditya Dhar, stating that the filmmaker allows the story to unfold with honesty and intensity, holding the viewer’s attention for its entire runtime. He compared the film’s impact to Animal, noting that Dhurandhar does not merely push cinematic boundaries but completely breaks them.
Commenting on the performances, Vivek highlighted Ranveer Singh’s restrained intensity, calling his silence more powerful than loud displays of emotion. He also praised Akshaye Khanna’s portrayal of Rehman Dakait, describing the character’s controlled brutality as gripping. He further lauded performances by R Madhavan, Sanjay Dutt and Arjun Rampal, calling the ensemble fearless and committed.
Concluding his post, Vivek congratulated Aditya Dhar and Jio Studios on the film’s record-breaking box office success, calling Dhurandhar a tribute to those who protect the nation.
