Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, starring Ranveer Singh, is a box-office hit, praised for its visuals and performances, sparking viral debates and unverified claims in Pakistan despite being banned there.
Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, directed by Aditya Dhar and starring Ranveer Singh, released on 19 March 2026 and became a box office hit despite mixed reviews. While many praise Singh’s performance and the film’s visuals, it faces criticism for its long runtime, intense violence, and political themes.
The film has sparked online debate, with unverified claims linking its story to tensions in Lyari, Karachi. A viral video allegedly showing police checks and social media posts claiming panic in Pakistan remain unconfirmed. Statements attributed to Shahid Afridi also lack verification.
Though banned in Pakistan, the film is reportedly being watched via pirated versions, with journalist Khalid Mehmood Khalid sharing a clip from Lahore that has gone viral.
