'Dhurandhar': R Madhavan's mysterious avatar revealed

Entertainment Nov 09, 2025

Bollywood's Dhurandhar just dropped its first-look poster, and R Madhavan's transformation is hard to miss.
Shared by Ranveer Singh, the poster shows Madhavan as "the charioteer of Karma," rocking a pant-suit and a bold, partially bald hairstyle—definitely giving off mysterious vibes.
This reveal follows Arjun Rampal's earlier "Angel of Death" avatar, so the character game here seems strong.

Film inspired by real-life stories of Indian agents

Dhurandhar is directed by Aditya Dhar and draws inspiration from real-life stories about Indian agents in Pakistan, though the full plot is still under wraps.
The cast is stacked with Ranveer Singh, Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Madhavan, and Rampal.
Mark your calendar: it hits theaters December 5, 2025.
