However, not everyone is convinced. A section of viewers expressed disappointment, with one harsh review stating, “Dhurandhar 2 feels less like a movie and more like a loud propaganda reel… No subtlety, no depth—just noise. By the end, it's not impactful, just exhausting.”
Dhurandhar 2 feels less like a movie and more like a loud propaganda reel. Weak story, forced agenda, and over-the-top dialogues everywhere. Characters feel like slogans, not real people. No subtlety, no depth—just noise. By the end, it's not impactful, just exhausting. ????… pic.twitter.com/pPzj676Z7g
