The Dhurandhar fever has officially gripped Bollywood, and the latest celebrity to succumb to its infectious energy is none other than the "fitness queen" Shilpa Shetty Kundra. Taking to Instagram, the actress shared a spirited video of herself recreating the viral hook step from the song 'FA9LA', originally performed by Akshaye Khanna in the film.
The Viral Hook Step Recreated
Dressed in her signature stylish attire, Shilpa Shetty was seen mimicking Akshaye Khanna’s iconic shoulder-shrug and swag-filled walk. The song, a Bahraini rap by artist Flipperachi, has become a global sensation since the release of Aditya Dhar’s espionage thriller.
In her typical humorous style, Shilpa joked in her caption about the lack of a literal "fan" (wind machine) during her shoot, writing:
"Fan toh mila nahi lekin main fan ho gayi hoon, toh yeh trend karna banta tha!" (I didn't get a fan, but I’ve become a fan, so this trend was a must!)
High Praise for Ranveer Singh and the Cast
Beyond the dance moves, Shilpa penned a heartfelt review for the film, which is currently shattering records at the box office. She reserved special praise for lead actor Ranveer Singh, noting that his time as a powerhouse performer has truly arrived.
On Ranveer Singh: "Ranveer Singh, aapka time aa gaya... underplayed, yet fit the character to a T."
On Akshaye Khanna: She was left in awe of Akshaye's "Rehman Dakait" persona, calling his presence "aura maxxx."
On the Ensemble: Shilpa didn't hold back in praising R. Madhavan, stating no one could have played his role better, and termed Sanjay Dutt a "rockstar as always." She also lauded Arjun Rampal as a "revelation."
A Visionary Direction
Shilpa concluded her post by hailing director Aditya Dhar as a "true visionary." She described Dhurandhar as one of the most patriotic and impactful films she has seen in a long time, urging her followers to experience the cinematic brilliance in theaters.
Box Office Domination
The film Dhurandhar continues its "unstoppable" run, having recently crossed the ₹500 crore mark at the domestic box office. With a sequel, Dhurandhar 2, already announced for March 2026, the craze surrounding the franchise shows no signs of slowing down.
