Singer Slams Film Over Demonetisation Portrayal
22 Mar
Summary
- Singer Vishal Dadlani criticized Dhurandhar 2's depiction of demonetisation.
- The film reimagines 'Operation Green Leaf' as a strategy against terror funding.
- Dadlani urged viewers to seek information from reliable sources, not films.
Dhurandhar 2, starring Ranveer Singh, has achieved significant box office success, surpassing Rs 500 crore globally. However, the film is now embroiled in a controversy initiated by singer Vishal Dadlani. Dadlani shared a series of Instagram Stories that many interpret as a critique of Dhurandhar 2, particularly its second-half narrative.
The film's plot includes a fictional covert operation named 'Operation Green Leaf,' which reimagines the 2016 demonetisation exercise as a strategic move against cross-border terror funding. This creative liberty has drawn scrutiny, with Dadlani advising audiences to distinguish between film entertainment and factual information.
Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar 2 functions as both a prequel and a continuation, delving into the backstory of Ranveer Singh's undercover operative character. The ensemble cast includes R Madhavan, Rakesh Bedi, Arjun Rampal, and Sanjay Dutt.
