About Dhurandhar
The Dhurandhar films are written and directed by Aditya Dhar and produced by him, Jyoti Deshpande, and Lokesh Dhar, under Jio Studios and B62 Studios. The film was released in two parts as Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar: The Revenge. It tells the story of an Indian spy, Jaskirat Singh Rangi, alias Hamza Ali Mazari (Ranveer Singh), who infiltrates a Baloch gang in Pakistan’s Lyari to bring down a terror outfit.
Ranveer, Sara Arjun, Arjun Rampal, R Madhavan, Sanjay Dutt, Rakesh Bedi, Danish Pandor, Gaurav Gera, and others reprised their roles from the first film for Dhurandhar 2.

The film had paid premieres on March 18, which also saw good footfall.
