Ranveer didn’t hold back when he shared his reaction on Instagram on Wednesday: “I cried. Full stop. Did you?” And the internet went wild.
Fans quickly flooded the comments section, echoing his emotions. Many admitted to crying in theatres, with one fan writing, “Yes, I cried when this song was played in the theatre,” and another adding, “This song hits different.”

Alongside the song’s success, Ranveer’s performance is receiving major praise. Fans are calling it one of his career-best, celebrating his ability to connect so deeply with the audience.
Comments poured in: “One of your career-best performances, Ranveer Singh. And yes, we all cried for Jaskirat,” and “Every brother, every son, every husband, every friend, everyone cried.”
Box office bonanza continues
While the song makes hearts flutter, the film is breaking records on the big screen. Starting with paid previews on March 18, the movie officially released on March 19 and hasn’t looked back since.
Packed theatres, record-breaking ticket sales, and nonstop buzz have pushed ‘Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge’ closer to the Rs 1,000 crore mark worldwide.
Directed by Aditya Dhar, this sequel to the 2025 blockbuster ‘Dhurandhar’ promises all the thrills of its predecessor while adding deeper emotional layers. Produced by Jio Studios and B62 Studios, the multi-starrer cast includes legends like Sanjay Dutt, R Madhavan, Rakesh Bedi, and Arjun Rampal.
FWICE, which represents around 30 lakh cine workers, had sent Ranveer three meeting invitations before issuing the directive. The actor's team received no advance and claims the film lacked a locked script even years after development began.
He spent 17 years building the system. Now he's asking a court to dismantle part of it. The man who once ran Bollywood's most powerful bodies has turned around, and filed a petition against one of them.
While Pakistan's government banned the film, one of its own civic figures broke ranks. Arif Aajakia, ex-mayor of Jamshed Town, said the scenes in 'Dhurandhar' match what he personally witnessed growing up in Lyari.
