The Story in Brief
Actor R Madhavan says director Aditya Dhar spent an extra Rs 10 crore on the detailed work in Dhurandhar. Speaking to Gulte.com, Madhavan said the film’s long runtime and layered storytelling initially made the approach difficult to understand, but its reception changed his view of audience attention. The Times of India reports that Dhurandhar has earned more than Rs 3,000 crore and become India’s biggest film franchise, though the report does not provide independent box-office data.
Dhurandhar’s attention to detail has also become a meme on social media. Dhar thanked viewers in a birthday post on X, acknowledging both the praise and the memes. Madhavan plays Ajay Sanyal, a character reportedly inspired by National Security Adviser Ajit Doval. The film also stars Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, Sara Arjun and Rakesh Bedi.
The Indian Opinion
The loudest claims around Dhurandhar turn one actor’s account into proof that every rupee spent on detail was wise, while some critics dismiss the memes as empty publicity. Neither view is enough. The reported Rs 10 crore figure is attributed to Madhavan, not supported by a budget breakdown, and the Rs 3,000 crore earnings claim also needs transparent industry data. The useful test is whether the film’s reported revenue and repeat viewing hold after its full theatrical run.
