Veteran filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya has heaped high praise on Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar, calling it a landmark cinematic achievement and underlining its emotional and social relevance in today’s times.
Speaking about the film to SCREEN, Barjatya did not hold back in expressing his admiration for director Aditya Dhar’s vision. “As a filmmaker, whatever’s good is good. I think Dhurandhar is a perfect picture after Sholay. Every character is so well done. Hats off to Aditya.”
His comparison of Dhurandhar to the iconic Sholay has particularly caught attention, considering the latter’s legendary status in Indian cinema. By placing the film in such high regard, Barjatya has added significant weight to the ongoing buzz surrounding the project.
Beyond cinematic appreciation, the filmmaker also highlighted the importance of the film’s underlying message in a rapidly changing society. Emphasising the need for unity and emotional connection, he said, “All subjects should get made but this type of content is very important, so that we can tell the younger generation to trust, hope, and support each other. Otherwise we’re all getting divided. Why should there be any loneliness?”
Barjatya’s words reflect his long-standing belief in storytelling that brings people together — a theme often seen in his own films. His endorsement of Dhurandhar not only celebrates its craft but also its intent to inspire audiences and foster a sense of togetherness.
With such glowing praise coming from one of the industry’s most respected voices, Dhurandhar continues to strengthen its position as a film that resonates both artistically and emotionally with viewers.
