Veteran actress Khushbu Sundar has joined the chorus of celebrities praising Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar. Taking to X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday, she said she was “blown away” and left emotional after watching the film. She called
Ranveer Singh “outstanding” and R Madhavan “brilliant,” but singled out Akshay Khanna, saying he “takes the cake and walks away in style.”
“Every frame, every word, every moment inspires”
Khushbu’s detailed tweet read: "Finally watched #Dhurandhar. To say I was blown away would definitely be an understatement. Bravo to @AdityaDharFilms and the entire cast and crew. Every frame, every word, every moment turns into an inspiring movement. Clapped the loudest when you hear, 'yeh naya hindustan hai (This is new India).' Your eyes moisten and chest swells with pride when you finish the film. Take a bow #AdityaDhar. Jazbaaton ko jagah die. Faqr se dil bhar diya (Gave space to emotions. Made my heart swell with pride). @RanveerOfficial is outstanding. @ActorMadhavan subtle, powerful and brilliant. #RakeshBedi ji is superb. But it's this man named #AkshayKhanna who takes the cake and walks away in style. I am sure his father is looking from the heaven and smiling at him. No words can describe him. He lived the role. Loved to hate him."
She added the hashtags: #Dhurandhar, #brilliant, #fantabulous, #wortheverypenny.
