Is Dhurandhar's OTT runtime shorter?
Earlier, there were reports that the runtime of the film was trimmed after the makers were asked to mute "two words and one dialogue in reference to Baloch" in the movie. According to the revised censor certificate, Dhurandhar's new runtime is 3 hours 28 minutes 56 seconds.
The revised version of Dhurandhar was played in theatres from January 1.
According to a report in NDTV, two references to the Baloch community made by Sanjay Dutt's SP Chaudhary Aslam is muted.
"Police ke dinon mein mera ek Baloch partner tha... Hamesha bolta hoon Bade Sahab ko, magarmachh par bharosa kar sakte hain, par ek Baloch pe nahin," said SP Chaudhary Aslam in the original dialogue.
"Police ke dinon mein mera ek (mute) partner tha... Hamesha bolta hoon Bade Sahab ko, magarmachh par bharosa kar sakte hain, magar (mute) nahin," is the revised dialogue.
Netflix is showing the revised version of Dhurandhar after the makers were asked to mute the allegedly offensive dialogues.
