# Anupam Kher's Epic Take on *Dhurandhar*'s Triumph: A "Slap" to Propaganda Critics! Imagine a Bollywood blockbuster so powerful it silences the naysayers overnight— that's *Dhurandhar* for you, and veteran actor **Anupam Kher** just dropped the mic on its massive success.[1][2]
In a heartfelt Instagram video, Anupam Kher, who has no direct connection to the film, shared why *Dhurandhar*'s box-office domination fills him with "peace and pride." Directed by Aditya Dhar and starring **Ranveer Singh** and **Akshaye Khanna**, the spy thriller has shattered expectations, proving that conviction-driven storytelling trumps formulas every time.[1][2][4] Kher praised Dhar's courage, noting, "As a filmmaker he has not followed any pattern or formula. No formula. Just conviction," especially given Dhar's Kashmiri roots and family history of persecution.[2][4] But here's where it gets fiery: Kher didn't hold back on the "propaganda" label thrown at the film by a certain clique—the same folks who targeted his own works like *The Accidental Prime Minister* and *The Kashmir Files*. "Dhurandhar is a big slap on such people's faces," he declared, celebrating how audience love has shut down the noise.[1][2][4] Even after watching it, Kher raved about Ranveer's commanding performance, killer dialogues like "Ghwayl hoon isliye ghataak hoon," and the stellar cast including Sanjay Dutt and R. Madhavan.[3] This isn't just hype—*Dhurandhar* is being hailed as a landmark, much like *Sholay* or *Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge*, redefining cinema with raw honesty.[4] With *Dhurandhar 2* gearing up for release tomorrow, the buzz is electric![2] What do you think—has *Dhurandhar* redefined Bollywood thrillers?
