Ranveer Singh shares cryptic Instagram note

On Monday, Ranveer took to Instagram to share a short yet striking message that instantly drew attention. His note read, “Kismat ki ek bohut khoobsurat aadat hai, ki woh waqt aane par badalti hai... Lekin filhal... Nazar aur sabr.” (Destiny has a beautiful habit – it changes when the time is right. But for now… keep your eyes open and have patience.)

What many may not have realised at first is that the line shared by Ranveer is not just a personal thought. It is taken from ‘Dhurandhar’ and is spoken by R. Madhavan’s character, NSA Chief, Ajay Sanyal.

The line focuses on patience, awareness and restraint, qualities that are essential in the dangerous world the characters operate in.

According to the film, the Intelligence Bureau of the Indian government launches a long-term covert mission to infiltrate terror groups, political networks and criminal gangs across the border, naming it ‘Project Dhurandhar’. The agency recruits Ranveer Singh’s character, Jaskirat Singh Rangi, from death row, where he is imprisoned for a revenge-driven crime in Punjab. Led by IB chief Ajay Sanyal, played by R. Madhavan, the bureau selects prisoners facing life terms or execution to avoid suspicion, before training Jaskirat and giving him the undercover identity of Hamza Ali Ansari.

The conversation between Sanyal and Hamza takes place just before Hamza is sent on a high-risk mission. He is asked to infiltrate Rehman Dakait’s gang in Karachi’s volatile Lyari area. Before sending him into danger, Sanyal speaks about destiny or kismat, stating that its most beautiful quality is its ability to change at the right time.
