Aditya Dhar Faces Plagiarism Claims but Eyes Historic Epic Post Dhurandhar Success

Director Aditya Dhar is currently navigating a swirl of controversy after facing plagiarism allegations regarding his blockbuster film Dhurandhar: The Revenge. Despite the legal notice he issued to filmmaker Santosh Kumar RS, who accused Dhar’s film of copying his registered script D-Saheb, Dhurandhar 2 continues to dominate the box office, amassing an impressive ₹1,500 crore globally.

Aditya Dhar, known for his compelling storytelling and recent string of hits starring Ranveer Singh, has firmly denied the plagiarism claims through his legal team, calling the accusations “baseless and false.” Santosh Kumar RS, however, remains resolute, claiming exploitation and preparing to take formal legal action against the producers.

Amid this legal tussle, Dhar’s creative focus is shifting towards ambitious new projects. Reports reveal he is developing a historical epic centered on Chandragupta Maurya, a venture long discussed with Ranveer Singh. This project, alongside an evolving sports drama, highlights Dhar’s passion for diverse storytelling. The historical film promises a grand canvas featuring intense drama and action, a genre relatively unexplored in recent times.

While Dhar plans a brief hiatus before embarking on his next venture, fans eagerly await the next chapter from the visionary filmmaker. With Dhurandhar’s success solidifying his reputation, the industry watches keenly as Dhar prepares to bring history to life on the big screen.
