Days after Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri allegedly ‘liked’ Dhruv Rathee’s social media post referring to Dhurandhar 2 as a “propaganda film”, the filmmaker has now shared his review of the film. Vivek took to X to praise Aditya Dhar’s film. However, unlike many actors and directors who have written about Ranveer Singh and the cast’s performances, Vivek chose to focus on the “two less celebrated crafts”.
He wrote on X, “I was in the countryside of California, finally made a trip to LA just to watch Dhurandhar. Shabash. Bravo. Brilliant once again, @AdityaDharFilms. I genuinely don’t know what to say… anything I add may only become noise over something that already speaks for itself. I’d rather call you.” Have a look at Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri’s post here:
Dhurandhar: The Revenge
I was in the countryside of California, finally made a trip to LA just to watch Dhurandhar.
Shabash. Bravo. Brilliant once again, @AdityaDharFilms. I genuinely don’t know what to say… anything I add may only become noise over something that already…

He added, “Everyone has done exceptional work. But I want to specifically acknowledge two less celebrated crafts that elevate this film into something far greater: 1. Vikash Nowlakha’s world-class cinematography, and 2. @sainisjohray’s exceptional production design. In cinema, the camera and production design are married to each other. Unless both are in complete harmony, a film cannot rise to the level of a masterpiece.”
The director mentioned, “In Dhurandhar, what we witness is pure synergy. Both Vikash and Saini Johray have done groundbreaking work… work that will stand as a benchmark for a long time. My heartfelt best to both of you. And a special salute. And Aditya, just an unsolicited word from experience: You are sharp, and you know your path. Just stay mindful of the ecosystem; it can be as vicious as it is seductive. And everyone else in #TeamDhurandhar, you rock. ❤️❤️❤️.”
Did Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri Like A Post Calling Dhurandhar A Propaganda Film?
A few days ago, a screenshot went viral claiming that Vivek had ‘liked’ Dhruv Rathee’s post. The YouTuber had said in his video, “₹500 for a Propaganda Film or ₹500 for your Future?” The screenshot was shared on social media with the title, “Vivek Agnihotri liking a Dhruv Rathee video calling Dhurandhar 2 a propaganda film was not on my 2026 bingo card.”
But did The Kashmir Files director actually like Dhruv’s video? As per a report in The Free Press Journal, when the news site tried to verify these claims, they found no ‘like’. Some fans argued that Vivek might have accidentally reacted to the video, ‘unliking’ it soon after. Others claimed that there could have been no ‘like’ in the first place, with the screenshot being fabricated.
