Dhurandhar 2 Box Office Collection Live Updates: Technical issues continue to haunt the makers

After a prolonged delay in the release of the dubbed versions of Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, it appears the technical issues may not be entirely resolved. Several fans took to social media to express disappointment over sound effects not syncing with action sequences in certain theatres.

One user wrote, “In the climax fight of #dhurandhartherevenge, at Major Iqbal’s place, the sound effects were not in sync with the action—bullet sounds, punches, and object impacts were about a second ahead of the visuals for nearly two minutes during the premiere show at INOX: ODEON Mall, Screen 8. Did anyone else face this in their shows? #dhurandhar2.”

Another user shared, “Not just there—there were a few other scenes with slight delays in bullet sounds and abrupt music cuts that didn’t sync with the visuals. Might get better DCPs like the first part.”

Dhurandhar 2 Box Office Collection Live Updates: Fans want Aditya Dhar to reconsider The Immortal Aswatthama

Following the success of Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, fans have begun urging Aditya Dhar to revisit his long-shelved project, The Immortal Ashwatthama, which he had previously put on hold due to budget and scale constraints. One fan wrote on X, “Aditya Dhar should definitely focus on The Immortal Ashwatthama after the success of Dhurandhar 2, and here’s why: audiences tend to experience fatigue when they start noticing a pattern in a director’s work. What once felt inventive can quickly become repetitive. Success can sometimes lead creators to double down on the same formula. It happened with Vivek Agnihotri post The Kashmir Files (The Vaccine War, Bengal Files), and with Siddharth Anand after Pathaan (Fighter). Exploring a different genre after delivering a commercial blockbuster is often what elevates directors into GOAT territory—rather than being labelled a one-trick pony—making audiences say, ‘Damn, he can pull off anything.’”

Dhurandhar 2 Box Office Collection Day 1 Live Updates: Aditya Dhar 's fim did not 'bore' Shobhaa De

Author and columnist Shobhaa De shared her review of Dhurandhar: The Revenge (Dhurandhar 2). Unlike part one, Shobhaa De said she wasn't as "ecstatic" after watching Dhurandhar 2 and she shared in a clip, "I have watched Dhurandhar: The Revenge. Let me give you the good news first. I wasn't bored, it's four hours. I didn't fall asleep and I sort of enjoyed it. But I'm not ecstatic or excited like I was when I watched the first one. I thought the first one was much layered; it had psychological profiles, it generated anxiety, suspense, and you wanted to know why the people were doing what they were doing. Maybe it was the newness then, in this one there was a bit of a deja vu. I could almost predict what's going to happen next which is never good. Good cinema is about keeping you tense and making you wonder. People have called it a masterpiece. Sorry, it's not a masterpiece, at least not for me."

Dhurandhar 2 Box Office Collection Day 1 Live Updates: Ranveer Singh's actioner 'terrifying' for Bollywood makers, says RGV

A part of filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma's review for Dhurandhar: The Revenge (Dhurandhar 2) read, "#dhurandhar2 will terrify those who built their careers on action set pieces where physics is a joke and gravity is non existent. The scenes, where men are thrown fifty feet in the air, bounce off the ground like rubber balls, survive explosions that would vaporise cities, and still deliver punch dialogues while dusting their shoulders will be hunted and killed by the new audience After the audience saw action that actually hurts, that actually bleeds, the flying goon brigade will suddenly feel cheap, fake, and embarrassingly ridiculous. The filmmakers who still swear by wires and cranes to fake uplift the heroes will now wake up shivering in cold sweat. It will make the pan india directors tremble in their chairs, the ones who still believe characters are created by hairdos, costumes, photo shopped six packs, and designer clothes instead of intrinsic psychological depth. When the audience of #dhurandhar2 saw a hero whose power comes from his mind and not his biceps, the hair and costume school of cinema will look like kindergarten dress up. Dhurandhar 2 is not just a film. It is a verdict."

Dhurandhar 2 Box Office Collection Day 1 LIVE Updates: Ram Gopal Varma praises Dhurandhar 2

Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma lauded Dhurandhar: The Revenge (Dhurandhar 2) as a “horror” for outdated, over-the-top commercial cinema. In a detailed post, he praised Ranveer Singh for redefining the hero—flawed, dangerous, unpredictable, and grounded in action rather than exaggerated spectacle. RGV argued that the film exposes traditional “godly” heroes, physics-defying stunts, and costume-driven filmmaking as ridiculous, making the audience demand depth, realism, and psychological nuance. He called the movie a “verdict” that challenges bloated, masala-heavy cinema, asserting that its success is reshaping audience expectations and sending a clear warning to filmmakers who still rely on formulaic spectacle over substance.

Dhurandhar 2 Box Office Collection Day 1 LIVE Updates: Shobhaa De reviews Ranveer Singh's film

Veteran columnist Shobhaa De gave a mixed review of Dhurandhar 2, saying she was not as “ecstatic” about the sequel as she was with the first film, despite its long runtime. She praised the performances of Arjun Rampal and Sanjay Dutt, suggesting they stood out more than lead Ranveer Singh this time, and noted that the absence of Akshaye Khanna was felt, particularly missing the style and memorable moments he brought in the first film. He review read, "Capsule review of Dhurandhar Part 2. The Revenge. There were too many explanations....like tutoring school kids on how baddies operate. The dialogues were obvious and spelling things out for dummies. Instead of letting the subtext push the narrative. Too many tropes and cliches. Action for the sake of action. And Rohit Shetty inspired cars blowing up set pieces at regular intervals. Ranveer's hair was salon - wild and carefully sprayed into place even during the bloodiest fight scenes. A couple of neat twists - one just before the interval, and the final one at the end, were clever. But someone tell me what exactly happened in Pathankot during the teary finale ?? Anti climax !!!!"
