Ranveer Singh Says Dhurandhar Could Be India’s Global Breakthrough, Calls It A 'Visual Spectacle'

Bollywood star Ranveer Singh, currently preparing for the release of Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar, attended the closing ceremony of the 56th International Film Festival of India (IFFI) in Goa. A video from the event shows him promoting the film and expressing his hope to represent Indian cinema on the global stage through this project. The romantic track Gehra Hua from Dhurandhar was also showcased during the ceremony.

At IFFI, Ranveer Singh spoke about his movie and said, "I wish we could have shown the trailer and the teaser over here, but it’s a bit violent so we showed you the love song instead. We hope you like it. Aditya Dhar’s intention was to take an Indian movie to the world. Like we said at the trailer launch, China had its moment with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Korea had its moment with Parasite."

"We hope that this will be counted as one of the great instalments within this genre (of international creations). We really believe in our hearts that this is India’s moment on the global stage in every aspect. Education, tech, innovation, infrastructure, just about everything. And as part of Indian cinema, we want even cinema to have its moment on the global stage," he further added.

Ranveer further added, "With full intention, and all heart, blood, sweat and tears we have made this movie. I hope everybody goes and has a great time watching what is a very complex story, but with a whole lot of visual spectacle. We realised post COVID that if you want to drive people to the theatres, you have to promise them a big visual spectacle. So that has been the attempt. It’s a large canvas, a very intriguing tale and I am very proud to be presenting it to the world on December 5."
