Old Clip Showing Massive Crowd Outside Theatres Linked to Dhurandhar 2

We were able to trace this clip to 2023, where users claimed that it showed crowds for Gadar 2.

A video showing a massive crowd outside a movie theatre is being linked to director-producer Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar: The Revenge.

Users sharing the video claimed that it showed people waiting to enter the theatres to watch the film.

(Archives of similar claims can be found here and here.)

Is the claim true?: No, the claim is false as we were able to trace this clip back to 2023, with users claiming that it showed visuals outside theatres of those waiting to watch Gadar 2.

What we found: At first, we divided the clip into multiple screenshots and ran a Google reverse image search on some of them.

• It led us to a post by Deccan Chronicle from January, featuring the same viral clip. The post noted that the visuals showed crowds outside theatres to watch The RajaSaab, starring actor Prabhas in Hyderabad.
