YouTuber Dhruv Rathee has voiced strong criticism against the movie 'Dhurandhar,' branding it as perilous propaganda. In

a video released on Saturday, Rathee dissects the film, asserting that director Aditya Dhar is disseminating falsehoods

through what he calls a deceptive narrative.

Rathee's video, titled ‘Reality of Dhurandhar,’ argues that the film’s polished production quality amplifies its

potential harm. He contrasts it with movies such as 'The Taj Story' and 'The Bengal Files,' which he considers less

threatening due to their inferior quality. According to Rathee, a skillfully crafted piece of propaganda is far more

insidious than poorly executed attempts.

Rathee also addressed defenses of 'Dhurandhar' that dismiss it as mere entertainment. He countered this argument by

emphasizing the film’s repeated claims of being inspired by actual events. Rathee points out that the trailer explicitly

states this connection, and the movie incorporates authentic footage from the 26/11 attacks, along with genuine audio

recordings of conversations involving the terrorists. Furthermore, Rathee notes the film's use of characters based on

real-life gangsters and police officers from Lyari, Pakistan. By grounding the film in reality, Rathee contends,

'Dhurandhar' achieves a higher level of believability compared to typical spy thrillers like the 'Pathaan' or 'Tiger'

series.

Prior to the video's release, Rathee had tweeted his intention to thoroughly critique the film. As of now, neither

Aditya Dhar nor the producers of 'Dhurandhar' have issued any response to Rathee's critique.
