Ranveer Singh’s much-talked-about return with Dhurandhar has firmly placed him back at the centre of cinematic conversations. The film’s exceptional box-office run marked by a historic second weekend and a strong second Monday reflects unwavering audience trust and the strength of organic word of mouth.

Beyond numbers it is Ranveer Singh’s performance that has become the film’s emotional core. Viewers have been deeply moved by his command over silence, body language, and controlled expressions. Instead of relying on heavy dialogues or dramatic monologues Dhurandhar allows Ranveer’s internalised performance to do the heavy lifting an approach that audiences have connected with strongly.
Social media has been flooded with appreciation for the actor’s ability to convey pain, rage, patriotism, and vulnerability through minimalistic yet impactful moments. His screen presence especially in emotionally charged sequences has been widely described as gripping and deeply affecting.
One sequence that has drawn particular attention is the 26/11 moment where Ranveer’s restrained portrayal of grief and helpless anger has left a lasting impression. Many viewers believe this scene alone showcases the depth of his craft and his ability to communicate complex emotions without uttering a single word.
Fans have also reflected on Ranveer’s larger body of work acknowledging his versatility across genres from romantic dramas and comedies to historical epics and intense action films. For many Dhurandhar feels like a reminder of why Ranveer Singh is considered one of the most fearless and adaptable actors of his generation.
