'Ecosystem Can Be Vicious As It's Seductive': Vivek Agnihotri Praises Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar 2 Days After Liking Dhruv Rathee's 'Propaganda' Claim

Filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri praised Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar: The Revenge, which was released on March 19. While many in the audience have lauded the film, a section of viewers has also criticised it, alleging that it serves as propaganda. Popular YouTuber Dhruv Rathee, who had earlier slammed Dhurandhar (2025) as propaganda, recently shared a new video reiterating that Dhurandhar 2 is an even bigger example of the same.

Taking to his X (formerly Twitter), Vivek wrote, "I was in the countryside of California, finally made a trip to LA just to watch Dhurandhar. Shabash. Bravo. Brilliant once again, @AdityaDharFilms. I genuinely don’t know what to say… anything I add may only become noise over something that already speaks for itself. I’d rather call you."

Vivek Agnihotri's Advice For Aditya Dhar

He also shared a piece of advice for Aditya, writing, "Just an unsolicited word from experience: You are sharp, and you know your path. Just stay mindful of the ecosystem, it can be as vicious as it is seductive."

Vivek added that in cinema, the camera and production design are married to each other. Unless both are in complete harmony, a film cannot rise to the level of a masterpiece.

He shared that in Dhurandhar 2, what the audience witnessed was pure synergy. Both Vikash and Saini Johray have done groundbreaking work—work that will stand as a benchmark for a long time. Giving his heartfelt best wishes to both of them, and a special salute.
