Some Kannada-speaking fans emphasized regional pride, with one writing, "Kannadigas should demonstrate that we are not just passionate about cinema but also intelligent fans who appreciate superior filmmaking. Dhurandhar must become a blockbuster in Southern India."
The Toxic Factor: Fan Division and Anticipation
The simultaneous release with 'Toxic' has created a division among fans, with many believing that Yash's film will dominate the box office. Comments such as "There's only one person who could beat Toxic, and that's Toxic itself" and "ONLY TOXIC" reflect this sentiment. Another fan humorously noted, "Daddy's home only toxic baap level," while others adopted a wait-and-see approach, with one stating, "It's enough—let's see what happens on March 19th."
