Dhurandhar: The Revenge (Dhurandhar 2), directed by Aditya Dhar and starring Ranveer Singh, has been breaking box-office records since its March 19 release. While the entire cast has delivered strong performances, the supporting actors have also been lauded for their impactful roles, including Udaybir Sandhu, who played Gurbaaz Singh aka Pinda, the childhood friend of Jaskirat Singh Rangi.

The interval scene between Hamza and Pinda, one of the most intense bathroom sequences in the film, has everyone talking on social media. His dialogue, "Ghar ki yaad nahi aayi tujhe, Jassi?", left the audience shocked as he initially pretends not to recognise Hamza due to his drastic transformation. The tension peaks when it is revealed that Pinda has discovered Hamza's true identity as an Indian spy operating in Pakistan.

Recently, in an interview with Faridoon Shahryar, he spoke about the bathroom scene, sharing that the first compliment he received was from director Aditya Dhar right after filming it. He added that they had already shot the airport and car scenes, which were relatively normal, but the bathroom sequence was the most important scene of the film as well as for his character Pinda.

He added, "After that, I asked Aditya sir, 'Was it okay?' We were still doing the action bit then. He said, 'You don’t know what you have done'."
