In Episode 15 of The BoM Podcast, we dive into one of 2025’s most polarizing Bollywood releases — Dhurandhar, starring Ranveer Singh, Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, R. Madhavan, and Sara Arjun.

While the subject matter of Dhurandhar has sparked intense debate, our conversation stays grounded in what we do best:
analyzing the filmmaking, the performances, the action set pieces, the pacing, and the overall entertainment value. This episode is not about verifying the film’s political accuracy or historical truth — it’s about revisiting the movie purely as a cinematic experience.

We break down:
🎭 Ranveer Singh’s fierce, controlled performance
🧊 Akshaye Khanna’s cold, magnetic screen presence
🔥 The ensemble cast — who stood out and who was underused
🎬 How the film handles its massive scale, pacing, and three-and-a-half-hour runtime
💥 The gritty, high-intensity action sequences
🎶 Background score, cinematography, and technical craft that elevate the world of Dhurandhar

We also discuss why the film has divided audiences, how genre expectations shape viewer reactions, and whether Dhurandhar represents a new direction for Bollywood gangster cinema.

✨ A balanced, craft-focused review of a film that has everyone talking — without diving into the political firestorm around it.
