Ahead of Dhurandhar: The Revenge, Did Aditya Dhar Hint at Dhurandhar 3? Yami Gautam Calls Him ‘My Dhurandhar’
The buzz around Dhurandhar: The Revenge has reached a fever pitch just days before its grand theatrical release, and now a new wave of speculation has taken over social media—is Dhurandhar 3 already in the works?
Directed by Aditya Dhar, the much-awaited sequel to the 2025 blockbuster Dhurandhar is all set to hit cinemas on March 19, 2026. The film, headlined by Ranveer Singh, has already generated massive anticipation due to its scale, storyline, and record-breaking advance bookings. Reports suggest the film has witnessed extraordinary pre-release demand, with strong ticket sales and overwhelming audience interest.
Hint at Dhurandhar 3?
Adding to the excitement, director Aditya Dhar recently hinted that audiences should stay back for a post-credits scene, sparking speculation that it could set the stage for a third installment in the franchise.
While Dhar has not officially confirmed Dhurandhar 3, fans believe the cinematic universe he is building may extend beyond the current sequel. The original Dhurandhar had already teased its follow-up through a post-credit reveal, and the same storytelling approach now appears to be continuing.
Industry insiders suggest that if The Revenge performs as expected at the box office, a third film could be a natural progression, especially given the franchise’s growing popularity and global appeal.
Yami Gautam’s heartfelt reaction
Amid the rising excitement, actor Yami Gautam—who is also Aditya Dhar’s wife—has added a personal and emotional touch to the conversation. Reacting to the film and its growing hype, she affectionately referred to Dhar as “my Dhurandhar,” a remark that has gone viral among fans.
Yami has also reportedly watched the film and described it as “extraordinary,” further boosting expectations ahead of release.
Interestingly, reports indicate that Yami Gautam may also appear in a special cameo role in the film, possibly linking the storyline to Dhar’s earlier hit Uri: The Surgical Strike.
Massive hype and industry reactions
The film has been receiving strong praise even before its release. Veteran filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma recently described it as a cinematic spectacle, even comparing its scale to legendary classics and calling it a “new cinematic order.”
Meanwhile, early reviews and industry insiders have hailed the film’s action sequences, storytelling, and technical brilliance. Some reports suggest that Dhurandhar: The Revenge could redefine action cinema in India and set new benchmarks for large-scale productions.
However, the journey hasn’t been entirely smooth. The film has also faced minor controversies and last-minute challenges, including show cancellations in certain regions and debates over its content.
A franchise shaping the future?
With the original film becoming one of the biggest hits of 2025 and the sequel already breaking advance booking records, the Dhurandhar franchise is quickly emerging as one of Bollywood’s most ambitious cinematic universes.
Actor Ranveer Singh himself has hinted at the film’s larger impact, suggesting that it could influence the future direction of Indian cinema.
As fans eagerly await the release of Dhurandhar: The Revenge, one question remains at the center of all discussions:
