26/11 survivor reacts to Dhurandhar's red screen; lauds Aditya Dhar and makers

Mumbai: Aditya Dhar's movie Dhurandhar has garnered the praise of the audience. Recently, a survivor of the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks shared her experience of watching the film. She lauded Aditya and the makers of the film. 

Author Rajita Bagga, along with her husband, was at the Taj Hotel on 26/11. Luckily, they survived the attack. After watching Dhurandhar, the author stated, "The most bone-chilling scene in #Dhurandhar for me was the red screen where the actual voice recordings of the 26/11 terrorists and their handlers were played. To hear what the handlers were instructing the terrorists to do — how brutal, inhuman and disgusting it was — just sent shivers through my body. To see the scene recreated from the other side — the handlers celebrating every bomb going off and every person killed — if that doesn’t fill us with rage and a renewed commitment to national security, what else will?”
