The problem is that the everyday person is fed fear by their "leaders." 

 

Fear of being ostracized. Fear that some higher power expects them to behave a certain way. Fear that their people will abandon them if they don't follow. Unless some dramatic grassroots uprising comes about from within, this will continue. 

 

BTW, thank you for calling me a "pure soul" :-). 

 

I wonder how we manage to keep going around "the book".

There is one more fear -> Fear of being bashed by the military commander if they don't follow their orders.

Pakistan don't have any leader, any freedom. All they've is the stick of army, which will hit them hard between their legs if they tee out of the line. They're psychologically retarded. Shoaib's case is a recent example.

Now, they've become like "S.J. Suryah" in Spyder movie, who finds solace in watching his victim's families grieve.

if you go through the casting, you'll get a relative idea of what is expected in Part 2.

 

Tbh I am not that much a fan of Dhurandhar. I felt Madras Cafe, even though it had its flaws, was a much better spy film. 

 

Pretty much the same cast. Only Dawood is added as character. 

 

Madras Cafe is very underrated.

Shoojit Sircar directed Madras Cafe. He is so underrated.....also made Piku, Pink, Sardar Udham, October, Vicky Donor. His debut film was Yahaan which features some of my most favorite Bollywood songs.

Terrible movie.Trivializes a serious subject and makes it filmi and glorifies gangsters.

Sathya in Pak except that Sathya was far better.

OK contrarian. You should know about. Genre. Called historical fiction.

I could care less about the genre.

 

The film didn't hold me at all.It was predictable, loud for the sake of being loud trying  to create fake shock moments.

 

Those wigs were amusing .Ranveer looked clueless, akshay looked constipated and his expression in every movie seems to be the same with that intense gaze and quivering lip.

 

The director wanted to appear tarantinoesque with his chapters and marquee character entry shots, but completely lacks the taut storytelling and the long periods of unpredictable tension that make a film worth watching.

There is nothing wrong about glorifying gangsters. It is a genre. Do not take movies as moral examples.

Not in a movie which needs sensitive treatment
