gripping spy saga. And now, the excitement has hit a new high. The second trailer of Dhurandhar 2 has finally dropped, giving audiences a fiery glimpse of the next chapter in Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar’s ambitious franchise.
Released on March 7, 2026, at exactly 11:01 am, the new trailer promises a film that is bigger, darker and even more intense than the first instalment. With powerful visuals, high-stakes drama and explosive action sequences, the sequel looks ready to expand the Dhurandhar universe in a massive way.
Watch the trailer of Dhurandhar 2 here:
The original Dhurandhar, which hit theatres in December 2025, quickly became one of the most talked-about films of the year. Written, directed and co-produced by Aditya Dhar, the spy-action thriller blended geopolitics, espionage and emotional storytelling into a gripping cinematic ride. With a runtime of over three hours, it also stood out as one of the longest Indian films ever made.
The story followed an undercover Indian intelligence agent tasked with infiltrating Karachi’s dangerous criminal syndicates and political networks to dismantle a terror operation targeting India. Drawing loose inspiration from several real geopolitical incidents in South Asia, the film explored covert missions and intelligence warfare while keeping audiences hooked with thrilling action.
Ranveer Singh led the film with a fierce and layered performance. The ensemble cast also included Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, R. Madhavan, Sara Arjun, Rakesh Bedi, Gaurav Gera and Danish Pandor. Shot across multiple locations including Punjab, Maharashtra, Chandigarh, Ladakh, Himachal Pradesh and Thailand, the film’s scale and visual ambition were widely appreciated. Shashwat Sachdev’s music and Vikash Nowlakha’s cinematography added to the film’s immersive experience.
The plot of the first film centred on a covert mission launched after terror incidents such as the 1999 IC-814 Kandahar hijacking and the 2001 Indian Parliament attack. Intelligence Director Ajay Sanyal, played by R. Madhavan, initiates a secret operation named Dhu-Ran-Dhar to infiltrate Pakistan’s criminal networks from the inside.
For this mission, a young man from Punjab is recruited, Ranveer Singh’s character, who adopts the identity of Hamza Ali Mazari. Slowly, he gains the trust of a powerful Baloch gang led by Rehman Dakait, played by Akshaye Khanna. Hamza eventually executes a daring plan to eliminate Rehman with the help of SP Aslam Chaudhry, portrayed by Sanjay Dutt.
The film’s final moments hinted at a much bigger conspiracy. After the mission, Hamza wakes up and opens a confidential diary given by another Indian agent. He removes Rehman’s name from a hit list, only to discover a far more dangerous set of targets, including ISI officer Major Iqbal and the Khanani brothers. In the closing scene, Ajay Sanyal reveals that the larger operation has only just begun.
Now, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge is expected to pick up from that cliffhanger.
The new trailer shows Ranveer Singh returning in his dual avatars as Jaskirat Singh Rangi and Hamza Ali Mazari, suggesting that the story will dive deeper into the mystery surrounding his identity. Several questions that fans have been debating online may finally be answered. How did Jaskirat transform into Hamza? Who is the mysterious Sher-e-Baloch? And what exactly is the next stage of Mission Dhurandhar?
The sequel is also expected to expand the role of R. Madhavan’s Ajay Sanyal, who will reportedly be seen training Jaskirat in espionage tactics and combat. Meanwhile, the power vacuum in Karachi after Rehman’s death could lead to new battles, with Uzair Baloch preparing to take control of Lyari. Fans are also curious to see whether characters like Major Iqbal and SP Aslam Chaudhry suspect the infiltrator and whether Yaalina will eventually learn the truth about Hamza.
What’s clear from the trailer is that the stakes are much higher this time. The story appears more personal, the action grander and the political intrigue deeper.
Trade experts are already optimistic about the film’s prospects. The first instalment broke several box-office records in India and overseas markets, particularly in North America, Canada, the UK and Australia, and industry insiders expect the sequel to perform just as strongly.
Backed by Jio Studios and B62 Studios, the film continues Aditya Dhar’s ambitious spy-action saga. Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge is set to release in cinemas worldwide on March 19, 2026, in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada.
