Aditya Dhar Threatens Legal Action Against Fake AI Pic Amid 'Dhurandhar 2' Row, Says Images of Turban-Clad Ranveer Singh Smoking Are Fabricated

  • Filmmaker Aditya Dhar said images showing Ranveer Singh's character smoking while wearing a turban are fabricated and do not appear in the film or official materials, calling them deliberate misrepresentations.
  • Dhar condemned the manipulated AI-generated visuals as malicious and urged audiences to rely only on official content, emphasizing respect and sensitivity toward the Sikh community's portrayal.
  • A Sikh organisation objected to these images and scenes, prompting actor R Madhavan to clarify that his character puts out a cigarette before reciting verses from Guru Granth Sahib.
  • The film 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge,' starring Ranveer Singh and released on March 19, has grossed over Rs 900 crore globally and follows the character's rise in the Karachi underworld.
