When Dhurandhar released last December, audiences went gaga over Ranveer Singh’s performance and Akshaye Khanna’s unmatchable swag. But the most viral trend which began post the film’s release was netizens pointing out ‘Peak Detailing by Aditya Dhar’. It started with fans finding easter eggs in the film, like how Ranveer’s spy character held a gun in the film. But it soon became meme material, which the director hilariously acknowledged ahead of Dhurandhar The Revenge’s release this month. Well, a scene from the sequel has now gone viral, which has left netizens wondering if it was ‘peak detailing’ or ‘weak detailing’. Some were also reminded of Hollywood filmmaker Christopher Nolan. Spoilers ahead!
In Dhurandhar The Revenge, Ranveer Singh’s character Hamza aka Jaskirat crosses paths with his childhood friend Pinda from Pathankot, played by Udaybir Sandhu. During the interaction, the two get into a violent altercation where Pinda pushed Hamza against the bathroom wall. In the mirror next to them, eagle-eyed fans spotted a cameraman in full gear as he recorded the scene. Some netizens were reminded of a similar slip-up in The Dark Knight (2008), where a crew member was spotted during an action sequence in the film, and called this Aditya Dhar’s tribute to Christopher Nolan.
Peak detailing indeed! One such fan stated, “Ye dark knight ko tribute dene ke liye thaa... greatnes samjte nahi ho tum,” whereas another claimed, “It’s not a mistake, it’s Homage to Dark Knight & Christopher Nolan. Peak detailing again by Aditya Dhar.” A comment also read, “For those mocking Aditya Dhar, even Chris Nolan left the same mistake in The Dark Knight.” But there are some netizens who are now mocking Aditya Dhar, calling this a grave mistake.
