Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma praised 'Dhurandhar 2' ahead of its release and said, "It will be a 'Sholay' x100 level magnificence and is bound to make all the greatest films made so far, starting from 'Mughal-e-Azam' onwards look like TV serials." "This is the birth of new cinematic order and ruthless extinction of everything that ever existed," he added.
