Dhurandhar 2 Singer Satinder Sartaaj Lauds Ranveer Singh’s Dedication, Says ‘It’s Tough Work’

Punjabi singer Satinder Sartaaj is riding high on the success of his latest track Jaiye Sajana from Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar: The Revenge. The song, featuring in the Ranveer Singh starrer, has been topping music charts and gaining strong traction on social media reels since the film’s release on March 19.

Now, in a recent podcast, Satinder opened up about his journey, the response to the song, and the immense effort that goes into creating a film as physically and emotionally demanding as Dhurandhar 2.

Satinder Sartaaj On Ranveer Singh’s Dedication

During a conversation with Times Now, Satinder spoke warmly about Ranveer Singh and praised the actor’s commitment to his craft.

“He has become so solid and so honest about his work. He was like that

before as well, obviously. Sometimes there are things that are perhaps meant for you and he must have worked that hard. If he’s shooting in Bombay or anywhere, then when he returns to his hotel or home at night, how empty he must feel, how full he must feel, how drained he must be. So this is very difficult work,” he said.

The singer added that the credit for a film’s success cannot rest on one person alone. Reflecting on his own contribution to Jaiye Sajana, he said that while writing and singing a few lines may take only a short amount of time, an actor’s labour on a film stretches across months of gruelling work.

“That’s why I’m telling you that I wrote one or two lines in five minutes and sang them, and then I say all the credit is mine, no, that’s not the case. If you ever see his hard work, shooting goes on for seven to eight months, around the clock. You don’t get sleep. It’s very tough work,” he shared.

Satinder Sartaaj Praises Aditya Dhar’s Vision

Satinder also praised director Aditya Dhar, even though he revealed that he has not met him in person yet. The singer said that from whatever he has seen of the filmmaker, Aditya comes across as gentle and innocent, which made the intensity of Dhurandhar 2 even more striking to him.

“I haven’t met him, but from whatever I’ve seen of him, he seems very innocent and of a very delicate, gentle nature. So I mentioned this there as well. I would definitely like to ask him how he imagined so much intensity, so much struggle, so much bloodshed,” he said.

He further explained that translating a violent, emotionally charged vision onto the screen is far more difficult than simply writing it on paper.

“Because if it’s not in your nature, it’s a very difficult thing to express that in a film. Look, as far as writers are concerned, it’s one thing. You’ve written it on paper, that’s fine. But when it comes to showing it, that’s where the real effort comes in. So for me, implementation is just as valuable as the idea. And he implemented it. Those last scenes, where there’s so much fighting, showing such raw action is a huge achievement. I salute Aditya,” Satinder added.
