The film’s popularity has now spread beyond India. Ranveer Singh’s actioner is trending at the top of Netflix’s Top 10 charts in Pakistan. This has drawn attention due to the film’s sensitive content.

Despite scenes shown against the country, audiences in Pakistan are actively watching the film. Viewers have pushed it to the top of the charts in the region. This has created debate online.

Many viewers feel the OTT version does not match the theatrical experience. Following criticism, the digital version was updated with a higher bitrate of around 12.56 mbps. This improved streaming quality to an extent.

Even with these shortcomings, Dhurandhar continues to dominate Netflix charts across several regions. With the film trending strongly in Pakistan, it remains to be seen how long it holds its top position in the coming weeks.
