Ram Gopal Varma on Bollywood silence over Dhurandhar The Revenge success

Ram Gopal Varma on Bollywood silence over Dhurandhar The Revenge success. Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar The Revenge directed by Aditya Dhar is setting a trend rewriting records at the box office. 

However many in Bollywood are maintaining a stoic silence over the film's success. In the midst of all this, Ram Gopal Varma came up with a powerful post on social media. 

"Now that @Aditya DharFilms has EXPLODED an ATOMIC BOMB right under the film industry, what is shocking is the loud silence from the rest of the film industry," he wrote. He went on to speculate whether the lack of response stems from denial, disbelief, or an inability to match the film's scale and execution. , "I don't know whether this is because the #Dhurandhar2's devastating explosion has hurled everyone else in the film industry so far into OUTER SPACE that their applause cannot reach here due to the long distances, OR whether they're huddled in denial, whispering to each other, 'It's just propaganda... it will go away soon,' so that they can crawl back and resume making their same old repetitive films. OR are they just paralysed by the film's sheer brilliance, realising that whatever they've been making or planning to make now simply cannot measure up?" He further questioned whether insiders are downplaying it as temporary or avoiding engagement altogether. Calling such an approach "unwise and foolish," he compared the film to a "dinosaur" that cannot be ignored, highlighting its overwhelming box-office performance and cultural impact. "But isn't it extremely unwise to ignore a DINOSAUR like #Dhurandhar2 staring you in the face and BREATHING FIRE into your eyes with its BOX OFFICE ROAR shaking the very ground beneath their feet, how can anyone be so foolish enough to look away," he wrote on X.
