Rakesh Bedi Says Aditya Dhar Is Avoiding Limelight After Dhurandhar's Success
Amid the massive success of Dhurandhar, Aditya has maintained a low-key presence, refraining from interviews, podcasts, or public appearances post-release. Recently, Rakesh Bedi, who played Jameel Jamali in the film, praised Dhar's simplicity.
In an interview with Filmygyan, Bedi said, "Iss saal Dhurandhar itni badi hit hai, aur abhi toh bas shuruaat hai. Yeh toh aadhi film hai, aadhi toh baaki hai. Lekin woh limelight mein hai hi nahi. Woh kisi ko interview nahi de raha, baat nahi kar raha. Woh apne ghar jaake baith gaya hai. He is with his family. He is not like, 'Oh, maine yeh kar diya, woh kar diya...' He is not busy brandishing the pomp and show; he’s not doing that."
