Dhanush expressed displeasure at Ranjhana’s AI Janred Happy Climax, said- took away the soul of the film …
Anand L. Rai’s film ‘Raanjhana’, released in 2013, proved to be a super hit at the box office. The film stars South Star Dhanush and Sonam Kapoor in the lead roles. Recently, the Tamil version of this film has been re-rested in theaters.
But the climax of ‘Raanjhana’ has been replaced due to AI technology. In this, Kundan, the character of Dhanush, has been revived. Directed by this changed climax, Anand L. Rai has expressed his displeasure. At the same time, Dhanush has also expressed disappointment on this.
In the climax of ‘Raanjhana’, the film’s hero dies in Kundan Hospital. But now Kundan has been revived with the help of AI. This has completely spoiled the story of the film. Dhanush posted on X and reacted on the changed climax of the film.

Dhanush wrote, for the love of cinema, I am completely upset with the re -release of ‘Raanjhana’ with the changed climax with the help of AI. This Alternate end has taken away the soul of the film and the people associated with it managed to continue it despite my objection.
He wrote, this is not the film for which I expressed the commitment 12 years ago. The use of AI for changes in films or content is a very worrying matter for both art and artists. This is a threat to the integrity of storytelling and the legacy of cinema. I sincerely hope that strict rules will be made to prevent such things in future.
Anand L. Rai also expressed displeasure
Earlier, Anand L. Rai shared the post and wrote, the last three weeks have been a bad dream and extremely disturbing. It has been extremely disappointing to see the film Raanjhana, who was a replaced, renovated, and released without consent without my knowledge or consent without sensitivity, struggle, cooperation and creative risk. The thing that makes it even more tragic is that it has been done with the ease and carelessness.
He had said, I do not support the AI-revised version of ‘Raanjhana’ nor recognize it. This is completely unauthorized. I had no contribution in this, nor the team that made this film. It was not just a film for us. It has been shaped by human hands, human flaws and emotions. Now what is being broadcast is no tribute. It is a negligent occupation that destroys the purpose of this composition, our hard work, its feeling, its reference and its soul.
