A screenshot claiming that The Kashmir Files director Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri liked Dhruv Rathee’s video, labelling Dhurandhar 2 as a propaganda film, has gone viral online. While users shared it widely, cross-verification shows no confirmed likes, leaving fans questioning the authenticity of the claim.

Does The Kashmir Files director Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri consider Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar: The Revenge a “propaganda” film? A screenshot showing Vivek allegedly liking a video by Dhruv Rathee, in which he criticises Dhurandhar 2 as propaganda, has been circulating online. But how much truth is there to these claims? Let’s take a closer look below.

In a recent video, Dhruv Rathee asked, "₹500 for a Propaganda Film or ₹500 for your Future?" urging fans to choose between “brain-rotting” on a propaganda film or learning new skills. The post was allegedly liked by filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri. A user shared a screenshot on Twitter, writing, "Vivek Agnihotri liking a Dhruv Rathee video calling Dhurandhar 2 a propaganda film was not on my 2026 bingo card."

However, when later cross-checked, there was no visible like from Agnihotri on the post. While many online claim he may have liked it and then removed the like, his alleged activity quickly went viral.

Several users began calling out Agnihotri for "jumping ships." On a Reddit thread, one user slammed the filmmaker, saying, "This man switches sides like a record changer! Seriously, he is jealous that there is someone who is out there to challenge him." Another added, "Jealousy is a disease."
