Filmmaker Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar: The Revenge was released in theatres on March 19. The film has managed to break several box office records, just like its prequel Dhurandhar, which was released in 2025. The film continues to be showered with love in theatres, and everyone associated with it has been receiving praise for their work.
Raghav Chadha praises Sanjay Dutt
Now, politician Raghav Chadha shared a heartfelt note for actor Sanjay Dutt and acknowledged the overwhelming appreciation coming his way for Dhurandhar.
On Thursday, Raghav took to Instagram and shared pictures with Sanjay Dutt. He revealed that he had hosted the senior actor at his home recently. In the pictures, the two can be seen sitting in the politician’s garden and enjoying a warm conversation. Both were dressed in kurtas.
Along with the pictures, Raghav penned a note that read, “Had the pleasure of hosting, at my place some time ago, one of the warmest people I know, Sanjay Dutt. So good to see all the love coming your way for Dhurandhar. The aura remains the sa'me, and so does the admiration people have for you through every era. Couldn’t be more deserved. Always rooting for you!”
Sanjay Dutt was a pivotal part of both instalments of Dhurandhar. He played the role of SP Chaudhary Aslam in the Ranveer Singh-starrer spy drama. His character was based on real-life Pakistani police officer Chaudhry Aslam.

Chaudhry Aslam’s wife on Sanjay Dutt’s performance
During a podcast with AajTak Radio, Aslam’s wife Naureen noted that Sanjay Dutt was perfect for the role of her husband. While praising his performance, she said, “When he stands near the car and raises his eyes, for a moment it felt like Aslam himself.” She also revealed that her husband used to say that a film would be made about his life after his death.
However, Naureen also expressed that the film did not do full justice to his life or the depth of his character. She added, “If they were making a film, they could have at least consulted me, the police, or journalists to understand both his positive and negative sides. He fulfilled tasks that the rest of the police never could.”
She mentioned that she had only watched portions of the film through clips. She even joked about the character’s use of foul language, saying that although it may not be appropriate for a family audience, such language is fairly common in police circles and suited the role well.
