An exhibition source told Bollywood Hungama, “Theatres across the country received an e-mail from the distributors on December 31, informing them that the DCP of the film is being replaced. The reason for the change is that the makers have muted two words and altered a dialogue, as per directives from the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting.”
An industry insider added that “Baloch” is among the words removed in the updated version. However, Bollywood Hungama was unable to ascertain which other words or dialogues were changed at the time of publication.
Dhurandhar features an ensemble cast including Ranveer Singh, Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, R Madhavan, Arjun Rampal and Sara Arjun. The film, written and directed by Aditya Dhar, is produced by Jyoti Deshpande's Jio Studios along with Lokesh Dhar and Aditya Dhar's B62 Studios.
