Fact Check: Ranveer Singh Did Not Target ‘Cantara’ Mimicry Critics; Viral Post Is Fake

Bollywood superstar Ranveer Singh has been winning hearts with his stellar performance in Dhurandhar, leaving fans in awe of his portrayal of Hamza Ali Mazari. Amidst this success, a social media post has gone viral claiming that Ranveer had fired back at people who criticized him for allegedly mimicking a scene from the film Cantara—just two days before Dhurandhar’s release.

The Viral Post and the Truth
The viral post suggested that Ranveer targeted those who ridiculed him, accusing them of pretending to support him after the film’s success. It read, in part:
“The real victory is not box office collection, but when those who humiliated you two days before release for unintentional behavior later pretend to support you. #Dhurandhar #CantaraMimicry. But for now, patience and focus. Rab Rakha.”

However, this post is completely fake. Ranveer Singh never shared such a message. The post was a doctored image made to look like it came from his official account. In reality, after the film’s release, Ranveer only shared a cryptic post stating:
“Luck has a beautiful habit of changing at the right time… but for now… focus and patience.”

Fan Reactions
The fake post sparked outrage among Ranveer’s fans. Many demanded action against the spreaders of misinformation, while others were misled and expressed anger toward the actor for allegedly making the comment.

Previous Controversy: Apology for ‘Cantara’ Scene
Prior to Dhurandhar’s release, Ranveer had issued a public apology for mimicking a scene from Rishabh Shetty’s Cantara. His statement came amid criticism for the alleged mimicry and complaints from fans of the original film.

Conclusion
Despite rumors and doctored social media posts, Ranveer Singh has maintained a dignified silence, letting his performance in Dhurandhar speak for itself. Fans are advised to verify information before sharing or reacting to such claims.
