He added: “I love cinema, I love people who climb into a vortex and let the story take control, spin them shake them until what they want to say is purged out of them onto that screen. DHURANDAR is an example of that. Loved the storytelling. It’s cinema.”

He added that while he may “disagree with the politics of it” and believes filmmakers must carry certain responsibilities as citizens, the artistry on display is impossible to overlook.

“I may disagree with the politics of it, and argue about the responsibilities us filmmakers should bear as citizens of the world. Nevertheless, can’t ignore how I loved and learnt from this one as a student of cinema. Amazing,” Hrithik added.

Talking about Ranveer Singh and R. Madhavan, he wrote “@ranveersingh the silent to the fierce what a journey and so damn consistent. @actormaddy bloody mad grace, strength and dignity!!”
