Chaudhry Aslam’s Wife Slams ‘Dhurandhar’ For How It Shows Her Husband

Social media users say India has “no new ideas” and is using unfair, made-up versions of Pakistan for entertainment. Critics add that the movie focuses on Indian “heroes and soldiers” but ignores India’s own military history. They claim Indian soldiers “lack courage” and “often surrender in wars,” making the film “embarrassing.”

One of the loudest voices against the film is the wife of Chaudhry Aslam—a famous Karachi police officer who fought terrorism and mafias before he was killed. She is angry about how the movie shows Rehman Dakait, a notorious gang leader from Lyari.

She says the film makes Dakait look like a big, powerful criminal, but that’s not true. “He was just a small-time crook,” she explained. “He only extorted money from local businessmen and sold drugs in his neighborhood—he wasn’t a public figure.”

She criticized a scene where Dakait gives a speech at a gathering in Lyari, with a photo of Benazir Bhutto in the background. “What are they trying to show? Who even was Rehman Dakait?” she asked.

She also wondered why Bollywood chose to highlight Dakait instead of her husband. “Chaudhry Aslam is the real hero who fought all the big mafias,” she said. “If anyone should be in a movie, it’s him—not Dakait.” She called on Bilawal Bhutto and the Sindh government to speak up or take action.

The debate is getting bigger as Dhurandhar’s release nears. People in Pakistan are accusing the film of political bias, lying about history, and being insensitive to their culture. For now, the controversy shows no signs of stopping—with both public figures and regular viewers questioning the movie’s motives and inaccurate portrayals.
