The trailer of Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has finally been released, giving fans their first full glimpse of the much-anticipated sequel. Directed by Aditya Dhar, the film brings back Ranveer Singh in a more intense and powerful avatar.
The trailer premiered online on March 7, 2026, at 11:01 AM as announced earlier by the makers. Packed with explosive action, large-scale visuals and dramatic confrontations, the preview hints at a bigger and more ambitious sequel.
Ranveer Singh’s Transformation as Sher-e-Baloch
In the sequel, Ranveer Singh’s character Hamza rises to become Sher-e-Baloch, marking a major turning point in the storyline. The trailer largely focuses on his journey, highlighting revenge, power struggles and escalating conflict.
While Singh dominates most of the footage, actor Danish Pandor’s character Uzair Baloch briefly appears in the trailer, adding intrigue to the unfolding narrative.
Another important character in the story is Rizwan, played by Mustafa Ahmed, who becomes the right-hand man of Hamza after previously being part of the Arshad Pappu gang.
Trailer Dialogue and Music Highlights
The trailer also revisits one of the signature moments from the original film. In the first movie’s title track, singer Jasmine Sandlas announced, “Ladies and gentlemen, you are not ready for this.”
In the sequel’s revamped track “Ari Ari,” the line returns with a twist: “Ladies and gentlemen, you are still not ready for this.”
While the first film carried the mantra “Nazar aur Sabar,” the sequel introduces a new phrase: “Honsla, Eendhan, Badla.”
Celebrities React to the Trailer
Shortly after the trailer went live, several celebrities reacted online. Actress Alia Bhatt and filmmaker Rohit Shetty were among those who liked Ranveer Singh’s social media post announcing the trailer.
Fans also flooded social media with reactions, with many praising the film’s intense tone and large-scale action sequences.
Some viewers even described the sequel as a potential “new era for Bollywood action cinema.”
Massive Expectations After First Film’s Success
The sequel follows the success of Dhurandhar, which released in December 2025 and quickly became one of the biggest box-office hits of the year.
The film blended espionage with a gritty gangster narrative set in Karachi’s Lyari neighbourhood. Its storytelling twist — revealing a spy drama behind the gangster setting — became one of the defining elements of the movie.
The ensemble cast included Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, and Rakesh Bedi.
Akshaye Khanna’s performance in particular gained strong appreciation, with clips of his scenes continuing to trend on social media months after release.
The film reportedly earned ₹838.5 crore in domestic net collections and crossed ₹1,305 crore worldwide, making it one of the most successful Hindi films in recent years.
Music and Production Details
The film’s music and background score were composed by Shashwat Sachdev, whose energetic soundtrack contributed significantly to the film’s popularity.
Reports also suggest that a special song highlighting Ranveer Singh’s rise as Sher-e-Baloch was filmed in Ladakh using an elaborate set that had earlier been used for the song FA9LA in the first film.
Release Date and Paid Preview Shows
Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge is scheduled to release in cinemas on March 19, 2026, coinciding with the Eid festive period — a slot often associated with major box-office successes.
Reports indicate that special paid preview screenings could take place on March 18, allowing fans to watch the film one day before its official release.
The movie will release worldwide in multiple languages including Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam.
