Dhurandhar 2 Filming Intensifies in Mumbai as Release Date Nears
Following the remarkable box office success of 'Dhurandhar' and its recent OTT debut this weekend, all eyes are now firmly fixed on the highly anticipated sequel, 'Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge'. The production team was actively spotted in Mumbai over the weekend, diligently filming crucial portions for the upcoming installment. With the clock ticking down to its scheduled March release, the excitement among fans has reached a fever pitch.
Sanjay Dutt and Arjun Rampal Spotted in Action on Set
Eager fans were treated to a thrilling sight as actors Sanjay Dutt and Arjun Rampal were spotted in full costume, reprising their iconic roles as SP Chaudhary and Major Iqbal. The duo was captured on set shooting an intense terrace-top scene atop a building adorned with black flags. The filming reportedly took place in the historic Ballard Estate area of South Mumbai, a location known for its colonial architecture.
The first images from the sets quickly went viral across social media platforms, showcasing a remarkable transformation. The Mumbai neighbourhood was meticulously converted to resemble Lyari, a locality in Pakistan, sparking widespread excitement and intrigue about the shoot's narrative direction. If these viral images serve as any indication, it appears that SP Chaudhary and Major Iqbal may finally come face-to-face in a dramatic confrontation. However, fans will have to patiently wait until March 19 to witness how this pivotal encounter unfolds on the big screen.
Last-Minute Patchwork and Teaser Certification Buzz
Interestingly, 'Dhurandhar 2' is still actively rolling cameras barely a month before its scheduled release. Industry insiders suggest that the team might be adding some patchwork scenes to perfect the final cut. While not much specific information could be gathered from the closed set, reports confirm that an entire gully in Ballard Estate has been authentically transformed into Lyari, adding to the film's visual authenticity.
Considering the film is just about six weeks away from its theatrical release, these set pictures have only amplified the existing buzz. Unconfirmed reports indicate that the team is currently shooting some last-minute patchwork scenes to ensure a polished final product. Adding to the anticipation, there is significant buzz that the makers have already obtained necessary certifications for the teaser release.
According to circulating reports, the producers have secured certification for three different teasers from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). Among these, one teaser has received a U/A rating, while another has been granted an A rating, hinting at varied promotional content tailored for different audience segments.
Ranveer Singh's Return and Sequel Narrative
The espionage thriller, headlined by the dynamic Ranveer Singh, was originally conceived as a single feature film. However, in a strategic move closer to the release of the first part, the makers decided to split the narrative into two distinct films, scheduling the second part for release after a three-month interval. While much of the plot has been kept tightly under wraps to preserve suspense, the sequel is said to directly pick up after the events of the first part, delving deeper into the character arcs and unresolved conflicts.
The sequel promises to explore the characters of SP Chaudhary and Major Iqbal in greater depth, potentially unveiling new dimensions to their complex relationship. As the filming intensifies in Mumbai and promotional activities gear up, 'Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge' is shaping up to be one of the most awaited Bollywood releases of early 2026, building on the solid foundation laid by its predecessor.
