' Dhurandhar: The Revenge ' is still going great at the box office even after 17 days. On Day 17, it added Rs 25.65 cr to its India net as reported by Sacnilk.

At this time, the veteran actor Paresh Rawal has been left impressed by the 'Dhurandhar' franchise. In a recent interview, he admitted to watching both parts and genuinely felt he should have been part of the story.


Paresh Rawal’s strong reaction

While speaking to PTI, Paresh Rawal opened up about how much the films affected him. He said, "Dhurandhar Part 1 do baar dekhi, Dhurandhar Part 2 ek baar dekhi." Ek hi kirdar ke do pehlu dekhne ko milte hain, toh achha hi hai. Mujhe hona chahiye tha, not because ye Dhurandhar jis tarah ki kahani hai. Ye film nahi hai, ye saga hai. Thodi pehli baar mujhe laga yaar, mujhe iske andar rehna chahiye tha. Zindagi mein pehli baar aisa laga, yaar, main isme hota toh bahut maza aata." (“I watched Dhurandhar Part 1 twice and Dhurandhar Part 2 once. You get to see two sides of the same character, which is really good. I felt like I should have been a part of it—not just because of the kind of story Dhurandhar is. This isn’t just a film; it’s a saga. For the first time, I felt like, ‘Man, I should have been inside this.’ For the first time in my life, I felt that if I were a part of it, it would have been so much fun. ”)

He watched the first part twice and the second part once and clearly enjoyed both.

Paresh Rawal calls 'Dhurandhar' a saga

Paresh Rawal went a step further and called 'Dhurandhar' a saga rather than just a regular film. He said seeing two sides of the same character made it even more interesting for him. For the first time in his career, he felt a strong urge to be inside such a project.


The box office journey of 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge' continues
