Aditya Dhar is making waves, and how! Ranveer Singh starrer Dhurandhar 2 has surpassed Rs 2000 crore. From celebs to fans, people are lauding the film and sharing it on social media.
The recent additions to the fan club are none other than the power couple Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma. On Monday, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma shared their reviews of Ranveer Singh. Director Aditya Dhar also replied to their heartfelt messages, expressing his gratitude.
Anushka Sharma and Virat's heartfelt post for Dhurandhar
Anushka wrote: "What a fantastic film you've made! It takes so much conviction to make an almost four-hour-long film. Gripping, immersive, meticulously crafted—the film holds your attention through and through. You are a fiercely original and assured filmmaker."
Praising her first co-star Ranveer Singh for his 'solid' performance, Anushka wrote: "You seized a once-in-a-lifetime character and delivered a solid, flawless performance."
"Madhavan, Rampal, Rakesh Bedi Sir, and each and every fantastic actor in the film, every performance lands perfectly; the film is unthinkable without each of you. Many congratulations to everyone behind this one," Anushka added.
Aditya Dhar replied to Anushka: "This is truly overwhelming coming from such an exceptional talent like you. Thank you so much, Anushka. It only pushes us to aim higher, to tell stories with honesty, heart and purpose, and to keep striving to create something that truly moves people."
While Virat Kohli wrote, "Saw the film today and dare I say that I've never ever seen a cinematic experience like this made in India. It brought out every kind of emotion to the surface and I didn't flinch once for almost 4 hours. @adityadharfilms your talent and conviction is reflected in what you've created. Hats off to you. You're a genius. And although all actors were great in their roles BUT @ranveersingh you have attained a different level after this movie and your performance was beyond brilliant. Absolutely WOW.."
Aditya Dhar replied: "Woowww! Can't believe this is happening. Virat, this genuinely means so much. Been a fan since your Under-19 WC days. Watching a once-in-a-generation legend show love like this just hits different. The way you carry the country every time you step out inspires us, in our own small way. We'll always try to make India proud with our films. Jai Hind."
This comes after Zakir Khan took a swipe at Bollywood with his remarks around the success of Dhurandhar 2 at an award show.
Zakir Khan, who was co-hosting the event, had said, "Kitne hee congratulatory post aap daldein, kitne hee Story daldein, kitne hee public interview mein aap keh dein meri favourite film. Par sach toh yeh hai doston ke Dhurandhar se sabki jali toh hai. Bomb film mein fute Lyari mein, par dhuan uda hai Bandra se Juhu mein (It doesn't matter how many congratulatory posts you put up, many stories you share, or you call it 'my favourite film' in public interviews, the truth is, friends, with Dhurandhar has really made many people jealous. The bomb exploded in Lyari in the film, but the smoke has risen all the way from Bandra to Juhu."
Dhurandhar, released last December, became the highest-earning film in a single language. Dhurandhar 2 surpassed the lifetime haul of its prequel within 11 days.
On day 18, Dhurandhar 2 roared past Rs 1,000 crore (net) in India, becoming the second-highest net grosser. All Arjun's Pushpa 2 achieved the feat in 16 days.
