Kangana Ranaut Praises ‘Dhurandhar’ Breakout Sara Arjun for Being ‘Authentic and Rooted’

Actor Kangana Ranaut has officially joined the fan club of rising star Sara Arjun, following the young actor’s massive success in Aditya Dhar’s spy thriller Dhurandhar.

Taking to Instagram, Kangana shared a video of Sara celebrating Maha Shivratri at the Isha Foundation. Impressed by the actor’s poise and traditional values, Kangana wrote, “Remarkable young woman, authentic and rooted, do well kid I am rooting for you.”

A Meteoric Rise

Sara Arjun, daughter of actor Raj Arjun, is no stranger to the camera—having started in commercials at just 18 months old. However, Dhurandhar served as her official transition into leading roles. In the film, she portrays the rebellious daughter of Rakesh Bedi’s character and stars alongside Ranveer Singh.

Kangana had previously lauded the film itself, praising director Aditya Dhar for his portrayal of national defense themes and his bold storytelling.

‘Dhurandhar’ Shatters Box Office Records

The film has become a cultural and financial juggernaut in Indian cinema. Despite mixed critical reviews, its commercial performance has been historic:

• Global Collection: ₹1,300 crore.
• Domestic Milestone: It is the first Bollywood film to cross the ₹1,000 crore mark at the Indian box office.
• Records Broken: The film surpassed the lifetime collections of previous hits like Jawan, Pathaan, and KGF 2.

What’s Next?

Fans won’t have to wait long to see Sara back on the big screen. The sequel, Dhurandhar: The Revenge, is scheduled for release on March 19, 2026. The follow-up will see the return of the original powerhouse cast, including Ranveer Singh, Sanjay Dutt, and Arjun Rampal.
