Dhurandhar 2's Shirani Sahab dubbed 'Blinkit of Baloch', memes follow
According to meme-makers, Shirani Baloch, who is shown as the leader of the Baloch United Force, is basically the guy who pulls solutions out of thin air with just pure desi jugaad energy.
If there’s one thing the internet loves more than a good film, it’s turning its characters into full-blown meme legends. And right now, Dhurandhar: The Revenge has handed social media its newest obsession, Shirani Baloch, played by Bimal Oberoi. Equal parts clever, chaotic, and endlessly resourceful, Shirani isn’t just a character any more, he’s a whole mood.
Ever since the film dropped, audiences haven’t wasted a second in claiming Shirani as their own. But instead of just praising him, they’ve done what the internet does best: meme-ify him into something hilariously relatable. The most viral comparison? Shirani as Hamza’s (played by Ranveer Singh) very own Doraemon. Yes, you read that right. According to meme-makers, Shirani, who is shown as the leader of the Baloch United Force, is basically the guy who pulls solutions out of thin air, no futuristic pocket required, just pure desi jugaad energy.
Scroll through Instagram or X, and you’ll find a flood of posts hailing “Shirani Saab” as the ultimate fixer.
One viral reel jokingly begged him to step in and solve the ongoing LPG crisis, “Sir, ek do cylinder ka jugaad kara do (Shirani sir please arrange for one or two LPG cylinders)” the caption read, perfectly capturing the country’s collective mood.
Another set of memes paints him as that one indispensable friend every group has, the guy who somehow always “knows a guy” or has a hack ready before the problem is even fully explained.
What makes these memes land is how rooted they are in everyday life. Shirani isn’t just a cinematic character; he’s become shorthand for that street-smart genius we all rely on, whether it’s scoring last-minute tickets, fixing a tech glitch, or navigating chaos with uncanny ease, in short, the Blinkit guy. We’ve all met a Shirani. Some of us are Shirani (or at least like to think so).
The meme fest has only amplified the buzz around Dhurandhar: The Revenge, keeping the film firmly in online conversations days after its release. The film is slowly inching towards the Rs 1,500 crore gross haul at the worldwide box office. The film is already the fourth highest-grossing Indian film and second top Bollywood film globally.
