Haq director Suparn Varma says Dhurandhar's violence would be called ‘cinematic brilliance’ if it were a foreign film

A scene in the trailer of Dhurandhar involving Arjun Rampal has received mixed reactions online, with many calling it excessive and too violent.

Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar is one of the most-awaited films of the year. The action-packed trailer of the spy action thriller raised eyebrows, given that it features a significant amount of violence and a particularly gory torture scene. Amid mixed reactions to those scenes on social media, director Suparn S Varma has weighed in on the hypocrisy of the audience who would call the same violence ‘cinematic brilliance’ if Dhurandhar were a foreign language film.

Ranveer Singh plays the lead in Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar, the trailer of which was released a few days ago.

Suparn took to his X account and said, “I’m just amazed by some of the chatter about the violence in #Dhurandhar the same viewers would have called it cinematic brilliance if this was in any other language or a Korean or Japanese film.”
