As Aditya Dhar’s “Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge” continues its dominant run at the box office, filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma has openly questioned the film industry’s silence over the film’s massive success.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), the Satya director made a strong and provocative statement, suggesting that the impact of Dhurandhar 2 is nothing short of an “atomic bomb” on the industry. He expressed surprise at how the film fraternity has largely remained quiet despite the film’s overwhelming response.

Varma speculated on the reasons behind this silence, wondering whether the industry is too stunned by the film’s scale and success, in denial about its impact, or simply unable to match its standards. He hinted that many filmmakers might be hesitant to acknowledge a film that raises the bar so significantly.

Emphasizing the magnitude of the film’s success, the Sarkar maker compared Dhurandhar 2 to a “fire-breathing dinosaur” that is impossible to ignore. According to him, turning a blind eye to such a phenomenon is not just surprising but also unwise.

He further advised filmmakers to treat Dhurandhar 2 as a learning experience—a new benchmark in filmmaking. Ignoring its impact, he warned, could leave them stuck in outdated storytelling patterns and risk being left behind in a rapidly evolving cinematic landscape.

With such strong remarks from Ram Gopal Varma, the conversation around Dhurandhar 2 has only intensified, drawing more attention to both the film’s success and the industry’s response to it.
