Full Plot
Humza moves through the shadows of Karachi with the cold detachment of a man already dead. He targets the empire of Rehman Dakait; a titan of the underworld whose reach dictates the city's pulse. To climb this ladder, Humza performs acts of calculated brutality that buy him a seat at the table. He serves two masters while feeding intelligence to the authorities through a secret conduit. When a political mentor turns on Rehman, the veteran gangster finds himself hunted by the very state apparatus that birthed him. Humza pivots toward his defining vice of reckless over-extension to protect his target. This survival instinct secures his position but creates a vacuum that invites total national ruin.

Viewer Reviews (TMDb)
I liked Dhurandhar. It's not phenomenal or so, but definitely not a lot to complain about. It is a testosterone trip to an extent, but I'm not complaining. Those who are complaining are not really the target audience, it seems. Towards the end, there are some risky bets and plot…
