Following the massive box office success of the spy-thriller ‘Dhurandhar’, the makers have officially raised the curtains on its sequel. Directed by Aditya Dhar, ‘Dhurandhar 2’ is set to hit theaters on March 19, 2026, eyeing the lucrative Eid window for a historic opening.

A True Pan-India Spectacle: Releasing in 5 Languages

Taking cues from the overwhelming response to the first installment—especially in South India—producers Jio Studios and B62 Studios are going all out.

• Multilingual Release: The film will be released simultaneously in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada.
• Grand Scale: The scale of this spy-universe is being expanded to provide a world-class cinematic experience for audiences across the country.

The 600-Crore Legacy: Picking Up from the Cliffhanger

‘Dhurandhar’, which premiered on December 5, 2025, is currently racing toward the ₹600 crore mark at the global box office.

• The Plot: The story follows Zakirat Singh Rangi (Ranveer Singh), an agent recruited for ‘Project Dhurandhar’ who infiltrates the Karachi underworld.
• The Mystery: The first film ended on a high-stakes cliffhanger. The sequel promises to dive deeper into Zakirat’s mysterious past and his ultimate mission to dismantle the terror network.

Ranveer Singh Exits ‘Don 3’ to Focus on ‘Pralay’

In a surprising turn of events, Ranveer Singh has reportedly moved away from the highly anticipated ‘Don 3’.

The Reason: Sources suggest that Ranveer was hesitant to do back-to-back gangster roles. Instead, he has fast-tracked his work on a high-concept zombie thriller titled ‘Pralay’ (working title), directed by Jai Mehta.

A Powerhouse Star Cast

The sequel will retain its stellar ensemble, making it one of the most anticipated cast reunions in Bollywood:

• Akshaye Khanna & Sanjay Dutt: Bringing gravitas and menace to the screen.
• R. Madhavan & Arjun Rampal: Playing pivotal roles in the intelligence agency arc.
• Sara Arjun: Set to play a crucial link in the evolving storyline.

The Verdict: With ‘Dhurandhar 2’ locking in Eid 2026, Ranveer Singh is positioned to dominate the holiday season, potentially setting new benchmarks for the spy-thriller genre in India.
