Jaya Prada praises Dhurandhar 2
While speaking to ANI, the actor urged people to watch the film, highlighting its uniqueness and the hard work of the cast and crew.
“It’s a wonderful film, it’s a film that people haven’t seen in so many years. I’m very proud of this film. It’s very easy to say bad things. But the way they worked, the way they wrote the script, the way all the actors worked to make this film a success. I appeal to everyone to watch this film and appreciate it,” the former MP told the news agency.
Dhurandhar 2 receives both praise and criticism
Dhurandhar 2 stars Ranveer Singh as Jaskirat, an Indian spy embedded in the gangs of Pakistan. The film blends fictional narratives with true incidents to create an engaging thriller. The film has been a critical and commercial success, minting over ₹700 crore worldwide in four days.
However, there has been criticism too. Political commentator Dhruv Rathee called it ‘brain rot’, and many others on social media have alleged it is ‘propaganda’ for the ruling party in the manner it justifies demonetisation, among other things.
In the film industry, however, the response has been unanimously positive so far, with everyone from Kangana Ranaut and Alia Bhatt to SS Rajamouli and Ram Charan hailing the sensational film for its early success.
