Market Impact

The controversy surrounding 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge' and the subsequent clarification by Aditya Dhar could have a minor positive impact on the film's box office performance by generating additional publicity. However, the initial negative sentiment from the Sikh community could have slightly impacted the film's reputation if not addressed promptly.

Event Summary

Filmmaker Aditya Dhar issued a statement denying fabricated images circulating online that falsely depict Ranveer Singh's character in 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge' smoking while wearing a turban. Dhar stated these images were AI-generated and intended to create mischief, emphasizing his respect for the Sikh community and warning of firm action against those responsible. The controversy arose after a Mumbai-based Sikh organization filed a police complaint regarding the image. Actor R. Madhavan also clarified a separate scene involving his character and Sikh hymns. 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge' has been successful at the global box office, crossing Rs 1,000 crore.
