In the last shot of Dhurandhar, Ranveer Singh's character Hamza Ali Mazari crosses out Rehman Dakait's (Akshaye Khanna) name from his hitlist. While the secret diary page has many names that are probably
his targets, one name that caught the attention was Bade Sahab. While for many it might just be a blink-and-miss moment, eagle eyed fans have now dug out a possible Easter egg which might be a big tease into Dhurandhar 2.
Bade Sahab tease in Dhurandhar
Dhurandhar not just ends on a cliffhanger, revealing that Ranveer's real name is Jaskirat Singh Rangi (another possible connection with
Uri), and that he's a trained Indian soldier who's been sent to Pakistan on a big mission. While the core of the mission is yet to be revealed, in the movie he managed to remove one of his major targets, Rehman Dakait. The end scene shows him looking at a page of other names, which also includes Major Iqbal (Arjun Rampal) and his team who will now be Ranveer's next hunt in Part 2.
Ranveer Singh's hitlist
In the hitlist, the last name written in bold is Bade Sahab, who in all possibilty will also be his target. One might recall Major Iqbal mentioning him at several instances. According to Iqbal, Bade Sahab is an important man who controls the entire nexus. He's the big guy of ISI, a mafia and a mastermind of every terror activity happening. Now, as per a viral social media post, a user managed to dig out who exactly is Bade Sahab.The viral post includes a screengrab of
Dhurandhar's acting credits. There, the name of Dawood Ibrahim also pops up. Though Dawood has not made an appearance in Part 1, he is expected to have a major role in Part 2. The ruthless, India's most wanted criminal and the head of D-gang will be played by Danish Iqbal.
Netizens begin guessing game
Fans have been discussing how Dhurandhar Part 2 will now pan out if Dawood Ibrahim is introduced. One user wrote on X (formerly Twitter), "If bade sahab is Dawood Ibrahim then it will be very interesting because Dawood's brother was tortured and killed by uzair baloch." Another fan said, "Let's see if Dawood Ibrahim is just the bade Sahab villain or just a reference character in the movie."Others had different views. A user commented, "I think it won't be Daud Ibrahim because major Iqbal from Isi won't call Don from India bade Sahab !! it should be someone prominent from Pakistani army or Isi .." A second one said, "Dawood is not bade Sahab, He is not that big of a player, that must be Hafiz Saeed or Army chief." One post read, "Let's see if Dawood Ibrahim is just the bade Sahab villain or just a reference character in the movie. All these speculations will be answered in Dhurandhar Part Two."
Dhurandhar 2
While so far, we saw Hamza's diary as the only tangible clue to Bade Sahab, he surely is one of the main targets of our Indian spy. And with Dawood's connection running deep within the nexus of crime, politics, and terror operations in the 90s, if he does enter the movie, he will have a crucial role in
Dhurandhar 2.
