Bimal Oberoi as actor and producer

As reported in AajTak, Bimal Oberoi is known as both an actor and a producer. He brings depth to the role through his performance. He was involved in the production of the film ‘PK’. He has also taken on key roles in ‘Tiger 3’, ‘Panipat’, ‘Bard of Blood’, and ‘Mukhbir: The Story of a Spy’. Additionally, Bimal produced the Akshay Kumar starrer ‘Singh Is Kinng’.

Bimal Oberoi's industry respect

Lacking the hype of big-screen icons, Bimal earns quiet acclaim in film circles for his dedication.

In ‘Dhurandhar’, he demonstrates a supporting character's power to boost the entire story. His role specifically mirrors Maulana Muhammad Khan Shirani from history.

Maulana Muhammad Khan Shirani profile

Maulana Muhammad Khan Shirani, a Pakistani Islamic scholar and political leader often linked to radical ideologies, was connected to Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI). He emerged as a prominent figure in the Afghanistan-Pakistan region. Expelled from the party in 2020, he established his own outfit, JUI-Shirani.

Last year, at age 92, he drew attention for his second marriage.

Shirani Ahmed inspired by Akbar Bugti

Reports indicate Shirani Ahmed's role pulls major cues from Akbar Bugti, who shifted from system insider to champion of Balochistan's push for autonomy, resources, and justice. Slain amid Pervez Musharraf's rule, he became a rallying symbol of defiance. The film fictionalizes him, yet stays anchored in genuine historical events.

Shirani Baloch's terror network role

In the film, Shirani Baloch links to Pakistan's terror groups. The character shows the mindset of people who support terrorism. Shown as a powerful and scary leader who controls local networks and radical teams, Shirani's short role still builds excitement and suspense in the story.
