Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam versions of Dhurandhar The Revenge certified after delay; bookings open for dubbed versions
After a delay, the dubbed versions of Dhurandhar: The Revenge will finally be released in theatres from March 21. Know all about it.
After considerable delay, the Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam versions of Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar: The Revenge have finally been certified by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). The dubbed versions of the Ranveer Singh film were supposed to have premieres on March 18 and release with the Hindi version on March 19. But after cancellations due to content delay, the dubbed versions of Dhurandhar 2 are finally hitting screens.
Dhurandhar 2 dubbed versions certified
The CBFC website shows that the Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam versions of Dhurandhar have been certified, while the Kannada version’s certificate has yet to be uploaded at the time of writing.
All three versions were certified on March 19, with a runtime of 231.38 (3 hours and 51 minutes), slightly longer than the Hindi version’s 229.6 (3 hours and 49 minutes). The Hindi version was certified A on March 17, with a remodification on March 18, and the dubbed versions received the same certification.
The plot synopsis reads on the CBFC website: “After the death of Rehman Dakait, Indian Agent Jaskirat Singh Rangi A.K.A Hamza Ali Mazari begins plotting his rise in the gangster-terror-political network of Pakistan in order to bring India’s enemies to justice.”
Bookings open for Dhurandhar 2 dubbed versions
Bookings have opened on BookMyShow and other ticketing portals for Dhurandhar 2 in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Kerala, while they’re yet to open in Karnataka for the dubbed versions. The other language versions are hitting screens from the afternoon of March 21.
SVC Cinemas in Eluru announced the tickets being available for booking on X (formerly Twitter), writing, “Finally. Bookings now open for Dhurandhar: The Revenge (Telugu). Ee sari tickets book chesaka… Cancellation & Refund kosam pray cheyyakunda cinema chudandi. Responsibility = Mee dhey @jiostudios @AdityaDharFilms (Don’t pray for cancellation or refund after booking your tickets. The responsibility is yours Jio Studios and Aditya Dhar).”
Aditya Dhar on Dhurandhar 2 dubbed versions delay
On the evening of March 18, after the 5 PM shows for the dubbed versions of Dhurandhar 2 were cancelled, Aditya took to his social media to post a note at 6 PM. It read, “Most of our Hindi shows across India are running as scheduled from 5 pm onwards. All of our Tamil and Telugu shows will commence from 9 pm onwards. However due to unforeseen technical difficulties, our Malayalam and Kannada shows will begin from tomorrow morning.”
Fans were surprised to see that the South Indian-language versions of Dhurandhar 2 were not listed for March 19 either, despite Aditya’s promise. Most screens refunded tickets for the dubbed premieres and played the Hindi version with subtitles for those who chose to proceed with the show. Dhurandhar was released only in Hindi and collected over ₹1300 crore worldwide. It remains to be seen how much the sequel makes after its ₹240 crore opening.
