Dhurandar Controversy

[edit]

Dhruv Rathee had recently posted a YouTube video critically reviewing Dhurandhar. He described the movie as a “Skillfully made propaganda which poses a greater threat ( while quoting world-famous critic Susan Sontag). Movies like The Taj Story and The Bengal Films weren’t harmful because they were poor films. However, Dhurandhar is an engaging film.” The YouTuber also blamed director Dhar of mixing facts with fiction, making it a “Gospel Truth”. Despite criticism surrounding the film’s depictions of true events and Ranveer Singh’s portrayal as a spy, Dhurandhar continues to enjoy a successful run in theatres. Twenty days after its release on December 5, 2025, bookings remain strong with shows still running at house full. The film has shattered multiple records and is now on a historic global box office mark as it officially surpassed the ₹900 crore mark in worldwide gross. With this achievement, it becomes the 11th Indian film to reach this milestone. ~2025-42999-34 (talk) 15:07, 27 December 2025 (UTC)Reply

Dhruv Rathee Controversy with Jhanvi Kapoor

[edit]

Shall I add the controversy of Dhruv Rathee with Jhanvi Kapoor relating to his videos on YouTube and saying that she has “fake beauty” Globetrotter30 (talk) 21:50, 1 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

No. It is a storm in a teacup as of now. — Kautilya3 (talk) 14:50, 2 January 2026 (UTC) Kautilya3 (talk) 14:50, 2 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
No, this should not be added because it is not a real controversy, as actress Janhvi Kapoor has not given any importance or response to it.
So this is useless point. iamjaydatt (talk) 19:15, 2 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
