Addressing the media at the Delhi International Film Festival, he called "Dhurandhar" actual cinema.

The 'Gulaal' actor was heard saying, "There is a thin line between propaganda and cinema, like Dhurandar. I liked Dhurandar a lot. There is a great screenplay in it. It is cinema actually. So, I liked Dhurandar very much. So, you cannot say that it is a propaganda film. It is a film."

Most recently, filmmaker Karan Johar revealed that "Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge" reminded him of the 70s solid Hindi cinema, which used to be enjoyed on single screens.

Reminiscing about the good old days, he penned on the photo-sharing app, "I went back to the days I watched pure solid Hindi cinema in single screens in the 70s... and came out satiated and dreamt of being a part of this business... today I am a part of the fraternity and Dhurandhar reminded me of how proud and grateful I am to be here today... @adityadharfilms @officialjiostudios".
