Danish Pandor’s portrayal of Uzair Baloch in Dhurandhar has emerged as one of the film’s most striking elements. The action-packed drama turned out to be a mega hit worldwide, earning ₹1000 crore at the global box office and cementing its place as one of the year’s biggest successes. Taking on a character inspired by a real-life figure, Danish brought restraint, intensity, and psychological depth to a role rooted in violence and moral complexity.
In an exclusive interview, the actor opened up about his first meeting with Ranveer Singh, shooting some of the film’s most technically demanding car sequences, and understanding violence from his character’s perspective. Read on to know more.
Danish Pandor On Meeting Ranveer Singh
Recalling his first interaction with Ranveer Singh, who plays Hamza in the film during the film’s narration, Danish Pandor shared that the primary cast met for a narration on July 4 in Juhu, a moment that remains vivid in his memory.“Tab sabse pehli baar meri mulaqat hui thi sab actors se. Main baitha tha aur achanak se Ranveer bhai ne peeche se kass ke hug kiya and said, ‘Danish, we’ll kill it,’” he recalled, adding that when a superstar makes you feel valued, it leaves a lasting impact.
Danish said, “aur aapko itne pyaar se matlab pura importance de raha hai, and he’s giving you so much motivation, his energy is so contagious, so vivacious as a person, he gives importance to everyone, he makes everyone feel so important about themselves, aur wo bohot hi acchi cheez hai.”
Danish Pandor Opens Up About Shooting High-Intensity Car Sequences
Talking about the intense car sequences shot with Ranveer Singh, Danish explained that such scenes are far more challenging than they appear on screen. He shared “Bohot bhaari padta hai, aur sabse important cheez hoti hai car mein joh shoot hota hai, car mein woh expressions laana bohot mushkil ho jaata hai, Bohot si cheezo ka khayal rakhna padta hai pehle toh technicalities ka dhyaan rakhna padta hai, actor ke liye instinctive cheeze ho hi jaati hai, lekin car mein kya break maaro toh jerk kitna dena hai wo bhi important hota hai ki aap cameraa se nikal na jaao. Ton acting se zyada technicalities picture me aati hai.”
He further emphasised that staying emotionally present is crucial in such moments. According to Danish, “Woh moment mein rehna sabse zyada zaroori hai. Agar aap moment se nikal jaoge, toh woh chhoti si jo nazakat aur nuance hai, woh miss kar jaoge.”
Danish Pandor On Violence And Perspective
Reflecting on the theme of violence and the mindset of characters like Uzair Baloch, Danish offered a thoughtful perspective. He stated that violence is deeply subjective and depends on the lens through which it is viewed. “Violence is never the option. Humare hisaab se hum jo soch rahe hain, woh violence hai, lekin unke hisaab se woh violence nahi hota,” he explained. He elaborated that while audiences judge actions from a third-person perspective, people like Uzair perceive their reality differently. “Aap jis tarah se cheezon ko judge karte ho, woh apni tarah se cheezon ko judge karte hain. So it is very subjective,” he said, adding that what seems violent to one person may be another’s daily routine.
With Dhurandhar continuing to receive widespread appreciation, Danish Pandor’s performance as Uzair Baloch stands out for its depth and restraint. His insights into working with Ranveer Singh, handling high-intensity action sequences, and understanding complex human psychology reflect the thought and discipline behind his craft. As the film cements its success, Danish’s portrayal remains one of its most compelling highlights.
