As fans revel in the excitement of *Dhurandhar 2*, which premiered on March 19, casting director Mukesh Chhabra took to social media to express his admiration for director Aditya Dhar. He highlighted Dhar’s unwavering commitment, revealing that the director was hard at work until 2:30 AM on the eve of the film’s release.
In his heartfelt tribute, Mukesh shared a photo with Dhar and commended his rare dedication. He described Dhar as a genius, stating, “I’ve known you for so many years. Our paths diverged for a while, but after working together on *370*, we finally created *Dhurandhar*. Witnessing your brilliance in this film—the meticulous details, the emotional depth, and your respect for everyone around you—is truly remarkable. The whole nation is now celebrating your work. You always believed in this project and pushed beyond your limits to ensure it would be talked about, and you succeeded.”
Mukesh’s post included a poignant note: “This morning at 2:30 AM, he was still giving his all. Such dedication is truly inspiring.”
However, the excitement was slightly dampened as some fans expressed disappointment over the last-minute cancellation of several paid preview screenings in various cities.
Dhurandhar 2’s paid previews were called off due to technical difficulties and the unavailability of dubbed content, especially in Tamil and Telugu. In response, Dhar reassured fans that most Hindi screenings would proceed as planned from 5 PM, while Tamil and Telugu versions would debut at 9 PM. Unfortunately, Malayalam and Kannada screenings were postponed to the next morning due to ongoing technical issues.
