Starring Ranveer Singh as Hamza Ali Mazari, the film is a sequel to the 2025 blockbuster Dhurandhar and has started off on a high note by raking in big numbers from its previews and opening day releases.

High expectations, strong momentum

Alongside Ranveer Singh, the film features Sanjay Dutt, Rakesh Bedi, Arjun Rampal, R Madhavan and Sara Arjun in key roles. Director Aditya Dhar’s film has also drawn attention for a cameo by actor Yami Gautam.
With a powerful opening and sustained buzz, the film remains one of the biggest box office performers of the year so far.
