Viewers Share Their Dhurandhar 2 Review
Preview shows on March 18 brought a wave of reactions on Twitter (X). Early viewers on Day 1were also impressed with both the story and the acting. One viewer tweeted at the interval, “Already feels like this could be the greatest Indian film ever. The filmmaking is really good, and the music carries the film well. Everything feels very real and intense. The interval twist was really good and sets up the second half perfectly. Only issue so far is the length, but the positives easily cover it.”
Another fan gave it 9.8 out of 10 in his Dhurandhar 2 review and wrote, “Starts a bit slow, more violence and a little more politics. Flawlessly directed and intensely performed, this is essential cinema. A solid revenge, indeed!”
A viewer also praised Ranveer Singh’s performance: “Ranveer Singh ne apne role mein emotional turmoil aur ruthless efficiency dono ko perfectly carry kiya hai, aur jab script thodi weak padti hai tab bhi woh film ko strong banaye rakhte hain.”
At 3 hours and 55 minutes, Dhurandhar 2 is one of the longest Indian films recently. Some viewers felt the length was excessive: “The film could have been much shorter. It just refuses to end, and had too many slow-motion shots.”
Others said the runtime did not affect the experience. “Even though the film runs close to 4 hours, it never feels boring. The story keeps you engaged all the time. Screenplay outstanding, direction mind-blowing,” a fan commented.
Ranveer Singh dominates the screen, but Aditya Dhar’s direction also impressed audiences. One wrote, “#DhurandharTheRevenge GET READY TO BE BLOWN AWAY. Aditya Dhar simply outdid himself in the 1st half & catered to the hype of Dhurandhar so smoothly that now this feels like an unimaginable experience. It’s a Ranveer Singh show all the way.”
Another viewer added, “It’s a Ranveer Singh show. He must win the National Award for this, as should Aditya Dhar. This is peak cinema.”
About The Sequel
The sequel picks up immediately after the first film. Jaskirat Singh Rangi (Ranveer Singh) continues his undercover mission in Pakistan as Hamza Ali Mazari. After taking down Akshaye Khanna‘s Rehman Dakait, he moves to control Karachi’s Lyari district and dismantle terror networks from within. The film also explores his tragic past, including recruitment by Ajay Sanyal (R Madhavan) after a personal loss, and builds toward a high-stakes confrontation with Major Iqbal (Arjun Rampal).
In their Dhurandhar 2 review, critics have praised the film for its technical quality and Ranveer Singh’s “career-best” performance, which many call intense, nuanced and transformative. Reviews highlighted the “explosive” and emotionally satisfying climax, as well as Aditya Dhar’s precise direction. Despite the near four-hour runtime, most viewers agreed that the film keeps audiences engaged from start to finish.
