What's the story
The much-awaited sequel to the 2025 blockbuster Dhurandhar, titled Dhurandhar: The Revenge, is all set for a global theatrical release on March 19. Directed by Aditya Dhar and starring Ranveer Singh in the lead role, the film will be released on JioHotstar after its theatrical run. Meanwhile, the first installment is currently streaming on Netflix.
Character continuation
Singh returns as Hamza in the sequel
Singh will reprise his role as Hamza, aka Jaskirat Singh Rangi, in the sequel. The character was immensely popular in the first film, and the sequel will delve into his origin and backstory. The recently released trailer showcases Singh in an intense avatar, hinting at larger conflicts and more action sequences.
Release strategy
Pan-India release in multiple languages
Unlike its predecessor, which primarily focused on Hindi-speaking regions, Dhurandhar: The Revenge will be a pan-India release. The film will premiere in five languages, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam, making it accessible to fans across the country. The movie also stars Sara Arjun, Sanjay Dutt, and Arjun Rampal.
Box office landscape
'Toxic' postpones release, clearing way for 'Dhurandhar 2'
Initially, Dhurandhar: The Revenge was expected to face competition from Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups, led by Yash. However, the makers of Toxic recently decided to postpone their film's release to June 4, due to the ongoing US-Israel-Iran conflict affecting international distribution in the Gulf region. This decision has cleared the path for Dhurandhar: The Revenge to have a relatively open box office window upon its March 19 release.
