Dhurandhar Debate: Why Left-Liberals Cry 'Propaganda' When Bharat Speaks

• The outrage over Dhurandhar is about control over narratives, not cinema craft, challenging the Left's long-held monopoly on storytelling.
• Historically, cinema, including Bollywood, was used by the Left to promote ideology, often targeting Hindus while Western films like Rambo and James Bond were celebrated as 'iconic' despite their own propagandist undertones.
• The Economist and BBC label Dhurandhar as 'undisguised propaganda' for Narendra Modi, citing its portrayal of enemies and nationalist themes.
• Dhurandhar disrupts the global cultural discourse by telling Bharat's story unapologetically, without seeking Western validation, proving commercially viable narratives can challenge established 'liberal' intelligentsia.
• The film signifies a shift where Bharat asserts its own voice in global storytelling, much like Rambo and James Bond for their respective nations, making the outrage about its audibility and impact.
