Karan Johar has never shied away from celebrating talent, and this time, his admiration is directed toward Ranveer Singh’s powerhouse performance in Dhurandhar. The acclaimed filmmaker took to Instagram to laud Ranveer’s portrayal of Hamza, a character that has already become the talk of the town for its depth and intensity.
Sharing his excitement, Johar wrote, “OUTSTANDING!!! So much respect for ADITYA DHAR RANVEER SINGH SHASHWAT SACHDEVA (my favourite @ranveersingh performance). Congratulations to the entire cast and crew and to @officialjiostudios.” His emphatic endorsement has added yet another feather to Ranveer’s cap, reinforcing the unanimous verdict from critics and audiences alike: Dhurandhar is a cinematic triumph.
Directed and co-produced by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar is a gripping spy action thriller inspired by real-life covert operations linked to India’s RAW. The film, which hit theatres on December 5, 2025, boasts an ensemble cast featuring Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, and Sara Arjun, alongside Ranveer Singh in a role that critics are calling his most layered and transformative yet.
Johar’s praise carries special weight given his own successful collaboration with Ranveer in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, a film that earned both commercial success and critical acclaim. By calling Hamza his “favourite performance,” Johar has effectively positioned Dhurandhar as a benchmark in Ranveer’s already illustrious career.
The film’s narrative, steeped in geopolitical intrigue and inspired by the underworld of Lyari has resonated strongly with viewers. With a runtime of 214 minutes, Dhurandhar is not just one of the longest Indian films ever made but also one of the most ambitious, setting the stage for its second installment.
As the buzz intensifies, Johar’s glowing review amplifies the film’s momentum, making it clear that Dhurandhar is more than just a thriller—it’s a showcase of Ranveer Singh’s unmatched versatility and Aditya Dhar’s visionary storytelling. If industry chatter is any indication, awards season might just belong to Hamza.
