While ^ above review is not bad, here is one comment on that YT channel that points out where the reviewer was wrong.

1) Bike,mall & dam scenes are shot in chandigarh...
2) just today Bondi beach attacker in Australia is also a Pakistani so calling pak an epicenter is an understatement.
3) Omar Shahid Hamid (aide of S P Aslam) in a podcast admitted foreign intelligence officers infiltrating Lyari gangs
4) pahalgam happened because our security forces have to be right all the time & jihadis only one time.
5) in Modi's rule delhi parking lot blast is the only attack since 2014 in a major city, rest all 3 attacks were confined to j&k
6) currency plate scam did happen and so did demonetization just 2 years post modi came into power
7) talk to sensible leaders in pak for peace is as silly as it gets since pak army dictates the term in pak not any politician

She also says Hindutawa equivalent of the paki terrorists. Just as she questions the whole movie based on "after 1971 I heard ..." and some Urdu mispronunciation, I have to question whether she is as secular as she portrays herself to be.

Here is a review from Barkha Dutt (@BDUTT) [/url]

Finally watched #Dhurandhar -and what a gripping watch and masterfully made film !!! After years, it felt a like a return of a big canvas film, with a riveting ensemble cast, a movie made for the theatre.

Here's what worked superbly

Performances- Knockout performance by Akshaye Khanna & Rakesh Bedi, complete intense surrender to character by Ranveer Singh, an understated and fine rendition of Doval by Madhavan, Arjun Rampal menacing as ISI, Sanjay Dutt filling the frame - and Gaurav Gera's dramatic softness as the juice-wallah asset -

Set Design & Detailing - for an Indian film maker to produce a film set almost entirely in Karachi is not easy. The settings, political rallies, bazaars recreated with effective detail

Music- A big hero of the film- cant get enough of it- repurposing and remixing old clasics, techno rap meets qawaalis and fresh, foot tappping songs all designed to trigger viral Shararat at a whole year of weddings

Finally, there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING against Indian Muslims in the movie. The film is about Pakistan's patronage of terrorism. And we have all lived that as Indians for years on end. Conflating an adversary like Pakistan with India's Muslims is an insult to our own people. Btw I watched the movie with, among others, two Muslim friends who enjoyed it as much as I did.

Tiny points - I did not love the love angle in the film -expected it to be strategic, not Ishq- and because of the intercutting of real footage and fiction (very powerful tool btw) some parts of the movie will send you back to your research books to check timelines & details-but its a MOVIE, not a documentary !!!!

And as movies go- it is an absolutely compelling, mazedaar and riveting watch - larger than life as movies were once meant to be- Congratulations, many, @AdityaDharFilms
and team .

Amber ji, this is taqiya, plain and simple. A crude attempt to ride the coattails of someone else's success

a turncoat desperately looking for rehabilitation, re entry, access to the unlimited largesse of the public trough and above all, political forgiveness for गद्दारी.

hoping that people have short memories

but as traitorous brand ambassadors for jihadi and paki histrionics, the banished buddi the butt and malodorous turdesai are in a class by themselves. Once feted by hafiz syed and cherished by the sharif brothers, they were wined and dined in the paki cesspits during the congi regimes but are now scrounging for scraps from the tables of the powerful

If you see some of the scum that they "interview", they still quack and walk like ducks, while pretending to be anything but

Chetatji
I dont think this person has ever tendered any apology for all those soldiers killed during Kargil because of her stupidity in insisting on reporting from BOFORs site.
Likewise rNDTV perfidy during the 26/11 which is clearly protrayed in the movie.
This person is quite on such unpardonable offences.
Reember her crap apology for Kashmir reporting and Gas lighting and condone the Pandit Massacre!!
