Ram Gopal Varma celebrated his birthday recently and a huge party was thrown in Mumbai. The film-makers birthday celebration was attended by celebs like Suniel Shetty, Riteish and Genelia Deshmukh, Manoj Bajpayee among others. RGV has now dropped a picture from his birthday while cutting the cake and had the most witty caption. The ‘Rangeela’ director wrote, “STABBING my PAST with a KNIFE called Dhurandhar2.” Kangana Ranaut reacted to his post and said, “Sir your work and films have greatly contributed to our cinema and people’s lives, the time they enjoyed with their friends and families in the theatres, we didn’t have cinemas in our small village but we too saw your films on DVD players in those days and day dreamed about mumbai and various aspects that your cinema revealed to our tender minds at that impressionable stage. You have made our lives/experiences richer through your stories, today also you never shy away from appreciating others work which is very gracious of you, thanks 🙏”

Varma’s birthday cake featured his iconic films. Varma has not shied away from showering immense praise on ‘Dhurandhar’ and also called Aditya Dhar his new ‘guru’. The film-maker had expressed, “My one line advise to all film students is “Leave your institutes and spend that money and time in #Dhurandhar2 theatres” For all film students out there , here is what I studied of how , Aditya Dhar did not direct , but weaponized cinema itself. Dhar fused raw visceral intensity with surgical precision, creating a film that feels like a live electric wire humming with tension and then exploding into cinematic brilliance. His techniques redefine the genre, blending Scorsese’s gritty realism with a Tarantino’s stylization, all while maintaining an iron grip on both pacing and hovering over emotional land scapes.” He added, “Heavy use of medium close ups and tight frames captures not only hyper masculinity, but also micro expressions, with smoldering intensity (especially in Ranveer’s eyes). Low angles, shallow depth of field, and occasional high frame rate/shutter speed shots heighten the tension without disorienting us from the drama.” Varma went on to appreciate the performances of Ranveer Singh and R Madhavan in the film and concluded, “Dhar’s world building is like a master chef mixing Geo politics , gang dynamics, espionage without once feeling lectured in grounding this larger than life revenge drama in a never before seen or experienced setting of a tangible and pulsating atmosphere created by Saini Johray. Dhar’s genius lies not in balance but in glorifying each aspect of his craft addictive and delicious and the food items prepared In the pre march 19 th 2026 era will be now stale and disease ridden. This isn’t direction. It’s surgical warfare on celluloid. #Dhurandhar2 should not be just seen but should be read like a textbook.”
