Ranveer Singh Rules Lyari: ‘Dhurandhar 2’ Trailer Out

New Delhi, March 7, 2026: The wait is finally over for fans of the burgeoning Aditya Dhar spy universe. The official trailer for ‘Dhurandhar: The Revenge’ (popularly known as Dhurandhar 2) dropped today, March 7, 2026, and it promises an even darker, bloodier, and more visceral experience than its predecessor. Reprising his role as the enigmatic undercover operative, Ranveer Singh takes center stage in a trailer that is already being hailed as a masterclass in tension and action.

From Shadowy Operative to ‘Lyari Ka Badshah’

The trailer, clocking in at 3 minutes and 25 seconds, picks up exactly where the first film left off. Following the assassination of the ruthless gangster Rehman Dakait (played by Akshaye Khanna), Karachi’s Lyari district has spiraled into a chaotic power vacuum.

In a startling transformation, Ranveer Singh’s character—known to the underworld as Hamza Ali Mazari—rises through the ranks of the criminal syndicate. However, the trailer finally pulls back the curtain on his true identity: Jaskirat Singh Rangi, an Indian intelligence asset on a mission that has gone deep into the heart of darkness.

One of the most talked-about moments from the trailer is Ranveer’s clean-shaven, intense new look, signaling a shift from the rugged infiltration of the first film to a more calculated, cold-blooded strategist. The footage showcases Singh delivering a chilling declaration that sets the tone for the sequel:

“Ab Pakistan ka mustakbil, Hindustan tey karega.” (Now, India will decide the future of Pakistan.)

A Star-Studded Ensemble and High-Stakes Warfare

Director Aditya Dhar has assembled a powerhouse cast to support Singh’s explosive performance:

• Sanjay Dutt returns as the no-nonsense SP Chaudhary Aslam, bringing his signature swagger and grit.
• R. Madhavan reprises his role as Ajay Sanyal, the intellectual “charioteer” behind the mission.
• Arjun Rampal appears as Major Iqbal, who seems to be the primary antagonist and a personal target for Jaskirat.
• Akshaye Khanna is seen in pivotal flashback sequences, reminding audiences of the “Apex Predator” whose death ignited this war.

The action choreography appears to have been scaled up significantly, featuring urban warfare, high-speed chases, and tactical shootouts set to a high-energy remixed version of Bombay Rockers’ ‘Ari Ari’.

Box Office Expectations and Festive Release

With the first Dhurandhar grossing over ₹1,300 crore worldwide, expectations for the sequel are sky-high. Trade analysts are already predicting a record-breaking opening, with some estimates suggesting a domestic opening weekend in the range of ₹350–400 crore.

The film has also secured a strategic solo release window. Initially set to clash with Yash’s Toxic, the latter was postponed due to geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, leaving the field open for Dhurandhar 2 to dominate the Eid, Gudi Padwa, and Ugadi festive weekend.

Key Details at a Glance

Produced by Jio Studios and B62 Studios, Dhurandhar: The Revenge is more than just a sequel; it is a cinematic spectacle that looks to redefine the Indian spy genre with its blend of raw emotion and geopolitical intrigue.
