However, some users also felt that Dhurandhar had too much violence and Ranveer and Sara Arjun had no chemistry.
"#DhurandharReview 2/5 Stars One of the worst films I’ve seen. Boring songs, zero chemistry between #RanveerSingh & #SaraArjun, dragging screenplay and unnecessary violence. Honestly, just skip it — save your time and money. #AdityaDhar #Dhurandhar."
