Pakistani politician Nabil Gabol is firing back at online trolls and the film ‘Dhurandhar 2’. Feeling misrepresented by a character he believes is based on him, Gabol vows to produce his own film, ‘Lyari Ka Gabbar’, to set the record straight.
Gabol’s Reaction to ‘Dhurandhar 2’ and Online Trolling
Pakistani politician Nabil Gabol is miffed about all the trolling he is facing online ever since the release of Dhurandhar 2 . He believes that the character of Jameel Jamali is based on him and he will make a movie of his own to counter all the alleged lies that are being propagated by Aditya Dhar ‘s film.
“The truth is that they cannot fight Pakistan or the Pakistani Army, so they created a movie instead. Through this, they have made Lyari internationally famous. The people of Lyari do not care; they are very strong. They used a comedian, Rakesh Bedi, to play my role and portrayed him as Nabil Gabol. Rakesh Bedi later claimed, ‘No, I didn’t just base it on Nabil Gabol; I made it a general depiction of all Pakistani politicians’. However, in 2007, the MNA of Lyari was Nabil Gabol.”
The Alleged Misrepresentation and Gabol’s Counter-Narrative
He also addressed the trolling. “I see a lot of trolling on Indian social media asking why Nabil Gabol has gone silent. Well, today is the 26th, and I will give you a powerful response, just as the Pakistani Army responded to you. Just as six of your planes were shot down, I will also give you a proper answer regarding what Lyari actually is.”
He then proclaimed that he will make Dhurandhar 3 but won’t call it that. He will call it Lyari Ka Gabbar.
‘Lyari Ka Gabbar’: Gabol’s Response Through Cinema
Dhurandhar movies star Ranveer Singh as an Indian spy who infiltrates the gangs of Lyari in Pakistan. It also stars Arjun Rampal, Akshaye Khanna, Sara Arjun, Sanjay Dutt and others. The second film has earned more than ₹ 1000 crore worldwide over just a week.
Nabil Gabol’s response signifies a strong reaction to his perceived portrayal in ‘Dhurandhar 2’. His cinematic endeavor promises to offer an alternative narrative of Lyari, directly challenging the film’s depiction and sparking further debate.
