All about Dhurandhar 2
A part of India Today’s review for the film read, “Dhurandhar: The Revenge expands, sharpens, and builds on its predecessor. What the first film hinted at, this one executes with intent: more violence, more scale, more emotional rupture, and a far deeper obsession with revenge.”
The cast of Dhurandhar 2 includes Arjun Rampal, R Madhavan and Sanjay Dutt. Directed by Dhar, the sequel continues the story of Hamza’s life as Jaskirat Singh Ranghi, depicting his mission to go to Pakistan to fight terrorism against India.
