When a veteran like Paresh Rawal says he feels left out of a film, you know that project has struck a chord. That’s exactly what happened after he watched Dhurandhar 2 — a film that’s already dominating both the box office and the conversation around it.
“I Should Have Been a Part of It”
In a candid chat, Paresh Rawal revealed he has watched both installments of Dhurandhar, even revisiting the first part twice. But it’s the sequel that really stayed with him.
He didn’t just praise it — he called it a “saga,” not just a film. And for the first time in his career, he admitted feeling like he missed out on being part of something big.
In his signature style, he even joked with director Aditya Dhar, saying it felt like Ajit Doval had a “twin brother” — one resembling him and the other played by R. Madhavan.
A Film That’s Winning — And Dividing — Audiences
Headlined by Ranveer Singh, Dhurandhar 2 has been on a dream run since its March 19 release. The film blends espionage, patriotism, and high-stakes drama — and audiences have clearly responded.
But not without debate.
While many have praised its storytelling and performances, some sections have labelled it “propaganda,” sparking ongoing discussions online. Still, the overall momentum remains firmly in its favor.
Familiar Faces, Bigger Stakes
The sequel builds on a strong ensemble. Ranveer leads as Hamza Ali Mazari / Jaskirat Singh Rangi, while Madhavan plays Ajay Sanyal, a character inspired by India’s NSA Ajit Doval.
Actors like Arjun Rampal and Sanjay Dutt add weight to the narrative, making the film feel expansive and layered.
Interestingly, Paresh Rawal himself had earlier portrayed a Doval-inspired role in Uri: The Surgical Strike, which makes his reaction here even more personal.
What’s Next for Dhurandhar 2?
With strong theatrical numbers and steady buzz, the film is now gearing up for its digital release. It’s expected to stream on JioHotstar after its cinema run, though the official date is still under wraps.
Why Paresh Rawal’s Reaction Matters
This isn’t just another celebrity praising a hit film.
When someone with decades of experience says, “I wish I was part of this,” it reflects something deeper — the scale, the impact, and the kind of storytelling that even insiders admire from the outside.
And right now, Dhurandhar 2 seems to be exactly that kind of film.
