About ‘Dhurandhar’
Directed by Aditya Dhar, ‘Dhurandhar’ features a strong cast including Ranveer Singh, Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, R. Madhavan, Sara Arjun and Rakesh Bedi. The film is set against major events in India’s history like the 1999 IC-814 hijacking and the 2001 Parliament attack, giving it a serious and gripping backdrop.
‘Dhurandhar’ review
The Times of India gave ‘Dhurandhar’ 3.5/5 stars, noting, “Ranveer Singh returns to claim his number one spot in a layered, restrained avatar that plays to his strengths. His look — long locks, a grungy beard, and a piercing stare — may evoke comparisons to Ranbir Kapoor’s ‘Animal’, but the performance and tone are entirely different. Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, Rakesh Bedi, and Danish Pandor deliver solid supporting turns that enrich the narrative. Sara Arjun is likeable in her part.”
Sequel officially confirmed with release date
Fans of the film don’t have to wait long for the next chapter. The post-credit scene confirms that the story will continue in ‘Dhurandhar 2’. The sequel is scheduled to arrive in theaters on 19 March 2026. It is set to clash with Yash’s ‘Toxic’ and Bollywood’s ‘Dhamaal 4’, promising a high-voltage box office battle.
