Priyadarshan on Dhar's Rise & 'Propaganda' Claims

Filmmaker Priyadarshan recently shared insights into director Aditya Dhar's early career struggles. Dhar experienced considerable difficulties before gaining traction in the industry, initially keeping his setbacks private.

A pivotal moment for Dhar occurred when he watched Priyadarshan's film 'Gardish,' which served as a significant inspiration for his own filmmaking aspirations. Their subsequent collaboration, including work in London and Scotland, allowed Priyadarshan to witness Dhar's growth firsthand.

Priyadarshan also commented on the debate surrounding Dhar's films, particularly the 'Dhurandhar' franchise. He dismissed accusations of propaganda, stating that a film's acceptance by the majority of the audience validates its merit, rendering isolated negative opinions insignificant.
