Dhurandhar carries that same emotional connection, bringing together familiar faces who have entertained viewers in living rooms for decades.
The film becomes a meeting point of the past and present, where actors known for their small-screen work step into a larger, more intense story. What stands out is how comfortably they fit into this space, showing that good craft doesn’t depend on the medium.
Rakesh Bedi leads the list of names that instantly remind you of warm humour and simplicity. Watching him is like revisiting an old favourite while still discovering something new.
Manav Gohil brings a contrasting flavour to the film. He has always carried a composed intensity in his performances, whether he was playing a dignified lead or a character filled with inner conflict. In this film, that same maturity becomes his biggest strength. His performance is controlled without losing emotional impact. He doesn’t try to overpower moments; instead, he lets the silence and body language do the work. This calm confidence makes his transition to the big screen feel natural and effortless.
Gaurav Gera is one of the surprise packages of Dhurandhar. Audiences mostly know him for comedy and light-hearted roles. His timing, expressions, and quirky characters made him a household name.
But here, he shifts into a different zone altogether. There is a seriousness to his performance that catches you off guard in the best way. It shows that he has much more to offer than what we’ve already seen. His portrayal adds variety to the film, reminding viewers that actors often hold layers that only the right project can reveal.
Saumya Tandon steps into the role of Ulfat, the wife of Rehman Dakait. It’s a part that asks for subtle emotions, controlled reactions, and quiet strength—and she delivers all three beautifully.
The appearance of Ayesha Khan and Krystle D’Souza in the item song “Shararat” adds glamour and fun to the narrative. The track is energetic, and both actresses carry it with confidence.
What works for Dhurandhar is the way these actors blend so naturally. Each comes from a different phase of television, yet the film makes space for all of them without forcing anything.
