Ram Gopal Varma has been one of the most vocal admirers of Aditya Dhar’s spy thriller franchise Dhurandhar. His appreciation began after the first part released last December. It has only increased after Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge released earlier this month.
He has once again strongly supported Dhurandhar: The Revenge while responding to critics who called it propaganda. The filmmaker praised the film’s scale and structure. He also questioned the nature of the criticism surrounding it.
Sharing his views, he said calling Dhurandhar just a film does not feel appropriate. According to him, no film in the last 20 to 30 years has matched it. He highlighted its scale, twists, and narrative structure.
Ram Gopal Varma has been actively speaking about the film across platforms. He has appeared in YouTube interviews with Faridoon Shahryar. He has also taken part in Telugu podcasts to express his admiration.
His strong support has led to lighthearted speculation among fans. Some have joked that he might have secretly directed the film. His continuous promotion makes it seem like a personal project.
In recent days, most of his public appearances have focused on Dhurandhar 2. He earlier showed similar enthusiasm for Sandeep Reddy Vanga‘s Animal. At that time too, he spoke about the film with great intensity.
Some fans feel he has spoken more about the film than its director. While promoting a film is common, this level of involvement appears unusual. It has sparked discussion among movie followers.
There is also debate about Ram Gopal Varma’s current relevance. Many believe his recent films have not performed well. His supporters, however, still value his opinions on cinema.
It remains to be seen how things unfold in the future. If he returns with a film, people may watch closely. There is curiosity about whether directors like Aditya Dhar or Sandeep Reddy Vanga would support him similarly.
Wait… is #Dhurandhar2 directed by RGV?
Looking at how he’s all over YouTube with interviews, it almost feels like he directed it. Would love to hear more from @AdityaDharFilms about his vision. RGV owing it is fine, but ఇది కొంచెం over గా లేదూ? for someone else’s work?
ఇప్పుడు…
