However, he has one criticism of Dhurandhar: The Revenge, which concerns the portrayal of a key character in the Ranveer Singh-starrer. On the Hussain Zaidi Files podcast, the Satya director said that it does not align with what he knows. Ram Gopal Varma says Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar films got this wrong. Ram Gopal Varma disagrees with this character’s portrayal in Dhurandhar 2 RGV was asked about Dhurandhar on the podcast, and he called it ‘one of the greatest films ever made’. He stated that his opinion was only as a director, as he had ‘zero understanding of the Pakistan underworld’.

He called the film a ‘quantum leave’ in Indian filmmaking, even calling Dhar his “new guru” and comparing the film’s impact on his own perspective to that of Satya. Now, however, RGV has opened up about the one detail of Dhurandhar 2 with which he is in disagreement, and that is the portrayal of Dawood Ibrahim. In the film, noted gangster Dawood Ibrahim is referred to as ‘Bade Sahab’ and is shown to be the one pulling the strings of the terror network of Pakistan.
