RGV reviews Dhurandhar

RGV shared his opinion about Ranveer Singh and Akshaye Khanna-starrer using the following words, "The film doesn’t ask for your attention.. it commands it. From the very first shot, there’s a sense that something irreversible has been set in motion, and the audience is no longer a spectator but an accomplice to the happenings on screen. This is a film that refuses to be polite. The writing cuts with intent, the staging breathes menace, and the silences are as weaponized as the thunderous sound effects."
