How one film started the conversation

Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar, directed by Aditya Dhar, never saw a theatrical release in Pakistan due to the ongoing situation between the two countries.

A section of Pakistani viewers was unhappy with how Lyari was shown in Dhurandhar. Many felt that the area was presented in a negative way.

According to them, the film showed Lyari as a place filled with crime, gangs, and political issues. This led to backlash from viewers who believed this was not a fair representation.The reaction even led to an official response. The Sindh Information Department announced a film titled Mera Lyari and called Dhurandhar “propaganda”. The project has not been released yet.
