Both the films received a lot of love and shoutout on social media, including from the film industry.

Nobody supported Dhurandhar. The biggest directors I spoke to phone, they said, ‘Monday ko baith jayegi.‘ Monday ko aur chal gayi,” says Kohli on SCREEN Spotlight. He added that it was the same case with Anurag Singh’s period war drama Border 2, starring Sunny Deol, earlier this year. “Nobody supported Border 2. People said second week mei thoda baith gayi.
