A |     R. Madhavan has finally addressed the wave of polarising reactions surrounding Dhurandhar, and his response is calm, confident and rooted in experience. As debates intensify online over the film’s violence and narrative choices, the actor says he saw the backlash coming long before release. This is because he has lived through similar storms in the past.     In a conversation with Puja Talwar, Madhavan drew clear parallels between the response to Dhurandhar and the reactions to two of his biggest films, Rang De Basanti and 3 Idiots. Both titles are now considered modern classics, but Madhavan reminded fans that they also faced scepticism, doubts and even poor early ratings. “From the beginning, I knew this was going to impact society. People will give it bad ratings at first,” he said. “The people who gave two ratings have become irrelevant. We are still in the industry. You’re just missing the point, it’s time to evolve.”                                                                 View this post on Instagram          A post shared by Jio Studios (@officialjiostudios)               The actor recalled how Rang De Basanti was written off before it even hit theatres, with distributors backing out and critics predicting failure. For him, Dhurandhar simply follows a familiar pattern: films that challenge, provoke or diverge from expectations often face resistance before being embraced. “When this happened with Dhurandhar, I thought, been there, done that,” Madhavan added, unfazed by early negativity.     He was especially critical of reviewers and online commentators who declare films “disasters” within hours of release. Madhavan believes such snap judgments rarely account for context, intention or storytelling depth. “As actors, we dream of these situations..when people say it’s stupid, nothing will happen… and then it blows up. You haven’t seen the end yet,” he said, expressing faith that the film’s longevity will silence its detractors.                                                                 View this post on Instagram          A post shared by R.

On Instagram, Sharman Joshi revealed that Prem Chopra had been diagnosed with severe Aortic Stenosis and successfully underwent a TAVI procedure, which is a method to repair a narrowed aortic valve without requiring open-heart surgery. He further mentioned that Prem Chopra experienced a swift recovery and has since returned home. Sharman conveyed his family's appreciation for the exceptional care Prem Chopra received from Dr. Nitin Gokhale and Dr. Ravinder Singh Rao.
