Helmed by Aditya Dhar, the spy action thriller serves as the first instalment of a two-part film series and went on to become a huge box office hit. It tells the story of an Indian spy infiltrating Karachi’s criminal and political underworld in Pakistan. The plot weaves together several real-life events involving geopolitical tensions, such as the 1999 IC-814 hijacking, the 2001 Indian Parliament attack, the 2008 Mumbai attacks, and events surrounding Operation Lyari. Released on December 5, the film collected over ₹1300 crore worldwide and became the first Bollywood film to cross ₹1000 crore at the domestic box office.Dhurandhar 2 to be out soon
Now, the second part of the film is slated to release on March 19. The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has given the much-awaited sequel an A certification. The film is doing exceptionally well in its paid previews and advance bookings. The film's paid previews, which open on Wednesday from 5.30 pm onwards, are almost booked with almost 10 lakh tickets sold. The film will release in five languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada. The film will bring back Ranveer Singh as Jaskirat aka Hamza, R Madhavan as strategist Ajay Sanyal, with Arjun Rampal as ISI's Major Iqbal and Sanjay Dutt as SP Chaudhary Aslam. The film was initially slated for a box office clash with Yash’s much-anticipated Toxic, but the face-off was averted after the latter pushed its release from March 19 to June 4.
