Aditya Dhar's latest film, 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge,' is captivating audiences, with particular buzz surrounding the character 'Pinda.' The actor portraying 'Pinda,' Udaybir Sandhu, underwent a remarkable physical transformation for the role.
Sandhu shared that he gained and lost 15 kgs to convincingly play both a 20-year-old and a 40-year-old man within the same film. This dedication involved immense discipline and significant physical effort.
While 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge' is not based on actual events, director Aditya Dhar has indicated it is influenced by numerous real-life occurrences. Speculation suggests the character 'Pinda' might be inspired by Harwinder Singh Sandhu, also known as Rinda, a figure from Punjab's Tarn Taran district. Rinda was reportedly involved in cross-border smuggling and criminal activities before his alleged death in 2022.
The narrative of 'Pinda' in the film mirrors this, with the character relocating to Pakistan for illicit businesses and ultimately meeting his demise during a confrontation with 'Hamza.'
