What's right

Mukesh Chhabra was the casting director for the movie 'Dhurandhar' and it took him a year to cast all characters.
Aamir Khan was initially considered for the role of Ajay Sanyal.
Aditya Dhar suggested R. Madhavan for the role after Aamir Khan's suggestion to change the movie's concept.
Hamza (Jasjit) is depicted as belonging to a Punjabi Sikh family.

What's wrong

The claim that Aamir Khan suggested making a movie about Ajit Doval's life journey instead of 'Dhurandhar' is not verifiable from the provided information.
The claim that Aamir Khan frequently changes scripts and scenes, and that these changes are effective, is a generalization and not directly supported by evidence within the reel regarding this specific movie.
The reason for Hamza discarding the cigarette packet is stated as belonging to a Sikh family where such consumption is forbidden, but the reel does not provide external verification for this specific family rule or Hamza's adherence to it.

What's debatable

The specific emotional significance of Jasjit burning the photograph from the right side to see his family one last time is an interpretation of character motivation that is not definitively proven or disproven by the visual alone.
The reel implies that Aamir Khan's suggestion to change the movie's concept was the reason R. Madhavan was approached, but this causal link is not explicitly confirmed.
Whether Aamir Khan's suggested changes would have been effective is speculative.

Breakdown

Casting and Initial Interest The reel accurately states that Mukesh Chhabra took a year to cast all characters for 'Dhurandhar' and that Aamir Khan was the first choice for the role of Ajay Sanyal. It also correctly mentions that Aditya Dhar approached R.

Madhavan for the role after Aamir Khan's suggestion to alter the movie's premise. Character Background and Motivation The reel correctly identifies Hamza (Jasjit) as belonging to a Punjabi Sikh family.

However, the assertion that consuming products like beedi is strictly forbidden in such families, and that this is the reason Hamza discards the cigarette packet, is presented as fact without external verification. The interpretation of Jasjit burning the photograph from the right side to see his family is a subjective character motivation that is debatable.

Speculative Claims The reel makes claims about Aamir Khan's tendency to change scripts and the effectiveness of such changes, which are presented as general knowledge but are not substantiated with specific evidence related to 'Dhurandhar' within the reel itself. The effectiveness of Aamir Khan's suggested changes is also speculative.
