‘Dhurandhar: The Revenge’ trailer out: Ranveer Singh returns to Lyari for a darker, bloodier showdown

A still from "Dhurandhar: The Revenge"

The trailer of Dhurandhar: The Revenge is finally out, and it promises a far more brutal, high-stakes chapter in Aditya Dhar’s action franchise. Unveiled on March 7, the trailer puts Ranveer Singh’s character at the centre of a violent power struggle in Lyari, teasing a revenge-driven narrative packed with bloodshed, betrayal and larger-than-life action. The film is slated for a theatrical release on March 19, 2026.

Ranveer Singh’s Hamza takes over the frame

What stands out immediately in the trailer is Ranveer Singh’s intense screen presence. The footage shows his character moving deeper into the underworld, with the story hinting at how Jaskirat Singh Rangi evolves into Hamza and tightens his grip over Lyari. Much of the trailer’s appeal lies in this transformation, with the sequel pitching him as a fiercer, darker and more dangerous force than before. Reports around the trailer have also highlighted the “Lyari ka Badshah” angle, suggesting that power and vengeance will drive the film’s emotional core.

A sequel that looks bigger and more aggressive

If the first film established the world of Dhurandhar, the sequel appears determined to expand it with greater scale and more explosive action. Early coverage of the trailer points to striking visuals, high-octane confrontations and a much heavier emotional pitch. The tone is clearly darker, with the makers leaning into the revenge arc and the chaos surrounding Hamza’s rise. The trailer positions the sequel less as a routine follow-up and more as an escalation of everything that worked for the first instalment — action, intensity and franchise-building ambition.

Familiar faces return to the franchise

The trailer also builds excitement by bringing back key cast members from the earlier film. Reports say Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, R Madhavan, Sara Arjun and Rakesh Bedi return in the sequel, adding weight to the story’s conflict-heavy setup. With Aditya Dhar once again directing, Dhurandhar: The Revenge is being positioned as a major theatrical outing and a significant step forward for the franchise.

March 19 release now firmly in focus

With the trailer now out, attention will shift fully to the film’s release, which is set for March 19 in multiple languages, including Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam. The rollout suggests that the makers are aiming for a broad pan-India theatrical push. Going by the trailer alone, Dhurandhar: The Revenge is shaping up to be a violent, stylised and crowd-pleasing action sequel with Ranveer Singh leading from the front.
