Saumya Tandon on Ranveer Singh’s performance in Dhurandhar
Saumya was all praise for the Dhurandhar team, by stating that the film is for the ‘brave’ and the ‘biggest of them all’ is Aditya. She then said, “I also want to say one more thing. Everybody’s talking about Akshaye, but I have to tell you, I love Ranveer in that movie.”
Elaborating on what she means, Saumya said, “Because, you know, the silent parts? Being a superstar, being a hero. He’s standing behind and giving the stage to Akshaye to do all those nuances. He’s very subtly standing behind as an actor and staying silent. I think it’s the sign of a very mature artist.”
Fans seemed to agree with Saumya, based on the comments under the post. “Absolutely true,” wrote one, while another commented, “The whole cast did soo well! EVERYBODY! And Ranveer Singh toh.” A fan even wrote, “Very true without Ranveer this wouldn’t have been possible.” Another wrote, “Very well said about Ranveer felt the same about him such a secure person and such a commitment to the character.”
