Bollywood's rise in patriotic thrillers, fueled by *Dhurandhar*'s success, reflects post-2025 India-Pakistan tensions and nationalist sentiment.
Bollywood's surge in nationalist war and spy thrillers, led by the record-breaking film *Dhurandhar*, reflects growing audience demand for patriotic, high-octane entertainment.
Released in December 2025, *Dhurandhar* grossed over 10 billion rupees, portraying Indian agents targeting Pakistan-based terrorists and echoing government rhetoric.
This trend follows India’s 2025 military response to a terror attack in Pahalgam, sparking a wave of similar films like *Border 2*, *120 Bahadur*, and the upcoming *Battle of Galwan*.
The genre’s rise is tied to political messaging, media nationalism, and competition with South Indian cinema, drawing criticism over censorship and stereotypical portrayals of Pakistan and Islam.
