Dhurandhar Trailer Review: At 4 minutes and 7 seconds, the trailer Dhurandhar sends any last shred of doubt packing. This one starts with a splash of raw and unfiltered violence. The visuals are brutal right from the first frame until the last, leaving no space for misinterpretation about the tone of the film: one crafted for neither families, children, nor that casual weekend viewing. Such gruesome imagery, disturbing action choreography, and seemingly never-ending violence almost guarantee an A from the censor board.
The Dhurandhar trailer comes at an important moment for Ranveer Singh. Going by the trailer, Dhurandhar portrays an enraged, emotionally tortured hero struggling through a wrecked world. His presence is quintessentially alive on screen with strong hints of a comeback; yet the trailer also expresses that such intensity could also backfire on him. The extreme violence peculiar to this film could offend some who appreciate fair share of action with comedy. This brings the biggest question to the fore:
Is Dhurandhar the mass comeback Ranveer requires, or another audacious display of talent that just might not fly?
One very strong basic point of the trailer is its impressive ensemble cast. R. Madhavan, Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, and Arjun Rampal seem to be in all very commanding roles. The confrontations between them add not only depth but also menace and weight to the already dark precisions of the underworld that seem to be hovering about. Their builds-up look like they could lend themselves to intense battles and intricate character dynamics, which could end up being the foundation upon which the entire movie is built.

The guys seem to lead the charge on the tale while the lead actress appears poorly developed within the trailer. Offered are fewer glimpses of her role, which seems to be one of acting out the romantic angle with Ranveer Singh sans any significant input on the plot’s development.
Dhurandhar promises intense violence and power-packed performances. Whether audiences accept the gritty language embedded in Dhurandhar or deem it too much will decide its success. From this point, it puts Ranveer Singh in the charged context of either a strong comeback or yet another agenda of his that is probably not so widespread.
