May 21, 2025 : Ranveer Singh is stepping into uncharted territory with his latest film Dhurandhar, and the first glimpse of the Bollywood star in character has already ignited a wave of excitement. Directed by Aditya Dhar, the action-packed espionage thriller is currently in production and promises one of Ranveer’s most intense performances to date.
Set in the politically charged 1970s and ’80s, Dhurandhar dives deep into the covert world of R&AW (Research and Analysis Wing) operations during its golden era. A recently leaked video from the set shows Ranveer in a no-nonsense avatar — a fierce look, sharp wardrobe, and eyes filled with psychological complexity, teasing the emotional depth and grit of his unnamed character.

This marks a dramatic shift from Ranveer’s recent roles, including the flamboyant Rocky Randhawa in Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani (2023) and the intense ACP Sangram Bhalerao in Singham Again (2024). With Dhurandhar, he appears ready to deliver a performance rooted in realism and emotional gravity.
Backed by a stellar ensemble cast — including Sanjay Dutt, Yami Gautam, R. Madhavan, and Arjun Rampal — the film is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated thrillers of 2025. Each actor brings a strong screen presence, hinting at a layered narrative rich with intrigue, sacrifice, and patriotism.
Known for his acclaimed directorial debut Uri: The Surgical Strike (2019), Aditya Dhar is expected to blend high-stakes action with grounded storytelling once again. Dhurandhar is poised to offer a cinematic experience filled with espionage, moral dilemmas, and emotional depth, all set against a volatile era in India’s political and intelligence history.
Fans and critics alike are eagerly awaiting more details as the film moves closer to completion, with many predicting Dhurandhar could be a career-defining role for Singh.
