In an interview with Variety India, Saumya Tandon talked about her brief role in ‘Dhurandhar: The Revenge’. The actress expressed, “I actually do not have much to do in ‘Dhurandhar 2’. There is a scene of mine that has gone viral, but I wouldn’t like to speak about it because I think I’d like them to see the movie first.”The actress said that it was a very intense scene, which was during Rehman Dakait’s funeral. Explaining the state of her character at that time, Saumya shared, “It’s a very complicated scene because she’s again very angry, and also she’s kind of in a situation where she’s questioning. And she’s desperate.” She went on to add that for ‘Dhurandhar’ movies, everything had to be “expressed with your eyes.”In the same conversation, Saumya added that she missed Akshaye Khanna’s presence. She said, “Of course, as a viewer, I missed him a lot. He was so good in the first film. But then this is a story, and it progresses after his death.”She concluded her words with a hope that both movies will promote more content in India.
