आमच्या माननीय मुख्यमंत्र्यांची भेट घेणे हा माझ्यासाठी अत्यंत आनंदाचा आणि सन्मानाचा क्षण होता. प्रचंड जबाबदाऱ्या पेलणाऱ्या नेत्यांमध्ये, त्यांचा शांत आणि प्रसन्न स्वभाव तसेच त्यांच्या चेहऱ्यावरील आनंद ही खरोखरच एक दुर्मिळ गोष्ट आहे. त्यांच्याकडून शिकण्यासारखे आणि अंगीकारण्यासारखे खूप काही आहे. सर, आपण दाखवलेल्या आपुलकीबद्दल आणि सौजन्याबद्दल आपले मनःपूर्वक आभार.
मुख्यमंत्री देवेंद्र फडणवीस यांची आज FTII चे अध्यक्ष आणि अभिनेते आर. माधवन यांनी मुंबई येथील वर्षा निवासस्थानी सदिच्छा भेट घेतली. याप्रसंगी मुख्यमंत्री फडणवीस यांनी त्यांचे स्वागत केले. @Dev_Fadnavis @ActorMadhavan #Maharashtra #DevendraFadnavis #Mumbai

@ActorMadhavan - Thanks a ton for helping bring out Sri Venkatesa Suprabhatham in such a melodious musical rendering. Your Rocketry's Suprabhatham has now defined my early AM routine with discipline, devotion and dedication, daily! Stotrams, prapatti and mangalam are మధురమైన.

I totally agree and this is extremely heartbreaking and troubling. How are people getting away with this . Please respect the hard work of all the people involved in this Film. 🙏. Please do avoid watch it it on the pirated platforms.. .. 🙏
Heartbreaking and unfair — an entire team’s passion reduced to this. I request you all with honesty, please don’t watch, share, or discuss the film here. Respect their work. I stand with my friends and condemn the act, it’s unforgivable! #JanaNayagan

I needed a day to recover from what I witnessed—the emotion, the scale, the sheer audacity of it all. Ranveer… you didn’t just play Hamza/Jaskirat, you lived them. I felt every ounce of madness, pain, and rage. This is the kind of performance that becomes legend. Rakesh Bedi ji—masterclass. Maddy—you shapeshift like it’s second nature. Just brilliant! Sanju sir, Arjun, Danish, Sara—this film stands tall because of each of you! Vikash, Shashwat, the whole team…EPIC!! And Aditya—you are FEARLESS!!! And when everyone in the cast and crew shines, then that’s the mark of an outstanding leader! Congratulations guys!! @AdityaDharFilms @RanveerOfficial @ActorMadhavan #Dhurandhar2‌TheRevenge

Today, India takes a defining step in its civil nuclear journey, advancing the second stage of its nuclear programme. The indigenously designed and built Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor at Kalpakkam has attained criticality. This advanced reactor, capable of producing more fuel than it consumes, reflects the depth of our scientific capability and the strength of our engineering enterprise. It is a decisive step towards harnessing our vast thorium reserves in the third stage of the programme. A proud moment for India. Congratulations to our scientists and engineers.

Wow, so very well put and absolutely brilliant and as honest as it can get. This silent giant called Vikash is beyond words.🤗🤗🤗🫡🫡🫡🫡
Here’s to Vikash Nowlakha, the eye, the instinct, and the soul behind Dhurandhar. He was the last HOD to come on board Dhurandhar. Just a few days before we began. And knowing how deeply selective he is, that timing meant everything. It felt less like onboarding a cinematographer, and more like destiny quietly stepping in at the right moment. I still remember what he said after reading the script, “I’ve waited 30 years to do a film like this. I’ll give my life to it.” And he meant every word. What followed was not just work, it was devotion. Through impossible schedules, through chaos that often felt unmanageable, through shooting what was essentially two films in the time and cost of one Vikash stood at the center of it all, steady and relentless. Carrying the weight of the film quite literally on his shoulders, pushing through the burning heat of Amritsar and the harsh cold of Leh, he never once let the vision falter. But what makes Vikash truly rare is not just his endurance, it’s the soul in his gaze. His eye for detail, his emotional intelligence behind the lens, his ability to understand not just what a scene looks like, but what it feels like, that is where his genius lies. Every frame in Dhurandhar breathes because he allowed it to. He didn’t just capture moments, he gave them life. His inputs on set were never loud, but always precise. Always truthful. Always elevating the film. There are many who shoot films. Vikash lived this one. And in doing so, he has given Dhurandhar something that cannot be manufactured, a soul. I feel immense gratitude, respect, and affection for the artist he is, and the human being he brought into this journey. This film carries his imprint forever. And I know this is only the beginning, the stories we will tell together from here on will go even further, shine even brighter, and create something truly timeless. ❤️

Again speechless and all the love and respect right back at us, sir. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️🤗🤗🤗
Hey the fact that something I said gave you the courage to keep making those “crazy” choices is bull shit because my praise came from the fact that you already did it and achieved . In this industry, like you very well know , most actors what they think is the safest path is actually the most crowded , most predictable and hence most boring. The ones like you who dare to break the mould are the ones who actually move the cinematic art form forward which is what you did When I see someone like you pushing boundaries with conviction, I feel it is my duty towards myself to stand up and scream it out loud. Keep flying high. The wind beneath your wings is not me … it is your own passion and fearlessness to venture into unchartered territories and that’s how real cinema is born. So my dear Maddy , please stay mad, and keep pushing the limits of CREATING 🙏🙏🙏

Got this message from @RGVzoomin Sir .. Had to show off and share it 🤗🤗😃😃🙏🙏 “Let’s keep celebrating cinema that dares to go as deep as Dhurandhar Coming to your work it stands up as one of the most quietly commanding performances i ever saw .. In a high octane espionage thriller packed with explosive action, larger than life heroism, and raw patriotic intensity,instead of chasing the spotlight you simply anchored it with a stillness that amplifies volumes. From the film’s gripping opening the tense negotiations during the hijack scenario to the calculated orchestration of a long term infiltration mission into enemy territory, the way you played the cerebral core of Operation Dhurandhar is highly commendable because there is no precedent for this design You carry the helplessness of an entire nation on your shoulders, yet channel it into ax cold, precise strategy rather than displaying overt emotion. What makes your portrayal exceptional is its restraint. In a film where Ranveer Singh delivers explosive energy and the ensemble brings intensity, you have choosen subtlety not relying on loud dialogues or dramatic outbursts, but on micro expressions, a measured voice with an aura of quiet authority. Even in seemingly simple scenes a phone call, a strategy meeting, or a moment of disappointment you conveyed layers of inner conflict, moral weight, and unyielding determination. In an era where heroism often screams for attention, you reminded me of the strength in silence. Without being flashy you made me believe in the invisible hands that protect a nation by being the strategist who plans years ahead while others react in the moment. Your work here is a masterclass in understated intensity. It is the kind of performance that demands multiple viewings . If cinema is about making the extraordinary feel profoundly real, you delivered that in spades with your portrayal of Ajay Sanyal 🙏” ‼️.. This message from you sir is what gives me the courage to continue with the crazy choices I make. I want you to know that your message did not just serve its purpose, but has gone far beyond it to reassure me as an artist. It is impossible to express the full extent of my gratitude in words, but for what it’s worth sir …thank you so so very much for being the wind beneath the wings for all of us. I shall store this message forever. God bless you, sir.Much much Love and respect 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❣️❣️❣️❣️

Oh my God sir.. this is just moving beyond words … It’s a huge reassurance for me that under Adatya Dharam incredible direction our attempt hit home . Thank you so so much for getting us . Overwhelmed is an understatement and the loss of words is the most obvious outcome . 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️
CONTINUING FROM PREVIOUS TWEET Production design shifts from hyper detailed, noisy, lived in realism showcasing multiple storylines unfolding in cluttered frames that mirror the chaos of happenings . Production Designer Saini Johray made me believe that I was in pakistan Editor Shiv Kumar who Dhar gives a lot of credit to (Dhar told me personally about Shiv’s contribution ) delivers a “pulsating edit pattern” that compresses the cuts and then releases like a heartbeat both in quiet tension and also in exploding emotions . Slow burn domestic/emotional beats give way to rapid fire action cuts The use of retro Hindi songs (“Tamma Tamma Loge,” “Tirchi Topiwale”) cheekily during violence not for the effect sake , but as ironic, mood shifting devises transport you into a heightened, almost mythical and trance like world. Sound design is equally masterful: stripped back silence builds dread, then erupts into an array of thunderous, fragment driven scores (Shashwat Sachdev’s hip hop influenced work). Every grunt, impact, and explosion lands with physical weight. This “silence as sound” technique keeps you on edge for the entire runtime. The complexly layered, internalized performances wouldn’t have been possible without Dhar’s crystal clear and precise briefs and then him giving the actors their space for their own interpretations. Ranveer’s performance is a study in it’s nuances of controlled rage and emotional vulnerability Madhavan’s strategist is quiet authority personified. His helplessness of an entire nation on his shoulders he channels it into a cold, precise strategy rather than displaying overt emotion. In a film where Ranveer Singh delivers explosive energy and the ensemble brings intensity, he has choosen subtlety not relying on loud dialogues or dramatic outbursts, but on micro expressions, a measured voice with an aura of quiet authority. Each and every character no matter how small get real and deeply felt arcs and never in a single frame do they get reduced to props. Dhar’s world building is like a master chef mixing Geo politics , gang dynamics, espionage without once feeling lectured in grounding this larger than life revenge drama in a never before seen or experienced setting of a tangible and pulsating atmosphere created by Saini Johray Dhar’s genius lies not in balance but in glorifying each aspect of his craft addictive and delicious and the food items prepared In the pre march 19 th 2026 era will be now stale and disease ridden This isn’t direction. It’s surgical warfare on celluloid. #Dhurandhar2 should not be just seen but should be read like a textbook. My one line advise to all film students is “Leave your institutes and spend that money and time in #Dhurandhar2 theatres”
