Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 25 : Ranveer Singh's 'Dhurandhar 2' is winning praise far and wide, and Ameesha Patel is the latest star to applaud the film and its team.

Taking to her X handle, Ameesha shared her views on the film and called it an "eye opener" for the industry. While reacting to the praise around the film, she said the project shows how filmmakers should focus on real storytelling and not just trends.

"Eye opener. Industry Praising DHURANDHAR is wow and the brand deserves all the accolades, industry needs to realise that ADITYA made a film and not a project, casted actors and not instagrammars who trend at parties, stop making projects and and start making films," she wrote on X.
