Mukesh Chhabra on praise for Dhurandhar casting

Opening up about the overwhelming response to the casting, he credited director Aditya Dhar for his clarity and trust throughout the process. “I feel great, but the real star or the real Dhurandhar of the film is Aditya Dhar. The way he explained things to us and the way he trusted all of us has brought Dhurandhar to life. I'm sure all the love I'm getting for the casting is because of his clear vision and trust in me. Sometimes, when you're casting, so many different people get involved. Everyone wants a say. But with Aditya, only he and I are making the decisions, and that's the biggest part.”
