The troubles for Ranveer Singh-led Dhurandhar have escalated swiftly, with Late Major Mohit Sharma’s parents knocking the court’s door over the alleged depiction of their son, even as across the border, Pakistani cop Chaudhary Aslam’s widow warns of legal action against the film’s portrayal of her late husband.

Chaudhary Aslam’s Widow Raises Cross-Border Alarm
Reportedly, the widow of Karachi’s famed counter-terrorism officer Chaudhary Aslam has voiced strong objections to a character reportedly inspired by her late husband, played by Sanjay Dutt. She claims the portrayal is distorted and risks tarnishing Aslam’s courageous legacy.
Pakistani media reports indicate she is prepared to pursue legal action if the filmmakers do not address her concerns, adding a diplomatic layer to the film’s growing controversies.
Major Mohit Sharma’s Family Seeks Court Intervention
Meanwhile, the parents of Ashoka Chakra recipient Major Mohit Sharma have approached the court alleging that the film draws heavily from the officer’s covert missions without permission. They argue that such depiction compromises the dignity of a national hero and commercialises his sacrifice.
Legal experts note that the plea seeks immediate scrutiny of narrative elements that appear inspired by Major Sharma’s undercover operations, with the family demanding safeguards before the film’s release.
Mounting Pressure on the Filmmakers
With objections now emerging from both India and Pakistan, Dhurandhar stands at the centre of a sensitive ethical and international debate. Trade analysts suggest that the makers may face demands for edits, disclaimers, or even delays as they attempt to balance creative freedom with respect for real-life figures.
The mounting scrutiny- legal, emotional, and geopolitical- makes the film’s journey to release increasingly uncertain.
