Legal Notice Issued Over Sikh Character Smoking Scene in Dhurandhar 2 Before Release

Days before its March 19 release, Dhurandhar 2 faces controversy over a poster showing Ranveer Singh's Sikh character smoking, which has drawn legal notice and criticism from Sikh community leaders for allegedly misrepresenting Sikh religious beliefs that prohibit tobacco use. While some complainants view the depiction as offensive, fans have claimed the viral poster is AI-generated and not official, raising debates about misinformation amid the film's promotional activities.
