NOT About The Story But The People Behind It
Crazy how God's Plan works!!!
About 3.5 months ago, media journalists as well as the entire social media were so critical about each and every aspect of Dhurandhar
First Look- Animal ki Sasti Copy
First Song- Underwhelming
Trailer- Too much testosterone
Trailer and Audio Launch- Not Glam enough
And between all this negativity came the Kantara thing
Imagine Aditya Dhar's state of mind when he had to cancel preview show
Imagine the supporting cast and crew's disappointment when they felt their work will not reach wider audience
Imagine Ranveer Singh's anxiety when the movie he worked so hard for, registered low advance booking and first day collection
Imagine Dhar and Singh's despair when the movie they put their blood, sweat, tears and money (yes, jio refused to finance further and these two chipped in about 50 cr) into was being penned down on the first day for being too violent, jingoistic, misogynist and what not
That Dec 4 and Dec 5 night would have been terrible
Then came Dec 6 and their world changed FOREVER
Word of mouth did its magic and Dhurandhar became a gigantic success, paving way for thr mammoth success of Dhurandhar The Revenge
Movie so fine that it made the shallow film industry acknowledge and praise (begrudgingly) the first one in week 3 👀👀 and this one on very first day of it's release🤓🤓🤓
Acting so on point that 'Aura Farming' is now a common vocab
Characters so compelling that entire SM has been taken over with theories, memes, fanfics, peak detailing by fans
Audience love so overwhelming that after decades a mobmvie has shows 24 hrs round the clock
Fear so intimidating that 6 movies were forced to reschedule their release dates (yes, I am looking at you DADDY🧔♂️)
And let's us not forget about the people who need crates of burnol🫢🤭
This movie has done more for character artists, small time actors and crew members whose talent has been recognised how!!!
But amidst all of this, two people have remained quite and restrained- The captain of the ship and his chief officer
Aditya Dhar and Ranveer Singh could have hired a marketing team, engaged PR machinery, given interviews and what not
But these two chose the more difficult way- TO TRUST GOD'S PLAN AND LET THEIR WORK SPEAK!!!
Strange how 1 night can change the course of one's life, challenge and redefine the existing norms!
Sorry for the long post but I so needed to share my thoughts on this🤗
