Rakesh Bedi on Aditya Dhar
Amid the movie’s huge success, Aditya Dhar has maintained a notably low profile—skipping interviews, podcasts, and public appearances. Actor Rakesh Bedi, who performed Jameel Jamali within the movie, not too long ago praised Dhar’s grounded nature.Chatting with Filmygyan, Rakesh stated, “Iss saal Dhurandhar itni badi hit hai, aur abhi toh bas shuruaat hai. Yeh toh aadhi movie hai, aadhi toh baaki hai. Lekin woh limelight mein hai hello nahi. Woh kisi ko interview nahi de raha, baat nahi kar raha. Woh apne ghar jaake baith gaya hai. He’s together with his household. He isn’t like, ‘Oh, maine yeh kar diya, woh kar diya…’ He isn’t busy brandishing the pomp and present; he’s not doing that (This yr, Dhurandhar is such a giant hit, and that is only the start. That is solely half the story; the opposite half is but to come back. However he isn’t within the limelight in any respect. He isn’t giving interviews or speaking to anybody. He has merely gone dwelling and is spending time together with his household. He’s not like, ‘Oh, I did this, I did that…’).”After Dhurandhar launched, Aditya Dhar and his spouse, actress Yami Gautam, visited the sacred Naina Devi Temple in Himachal Pradesh. They had been joined by Yami’s mom, Anjali Gautam, and different relations. The household carried out conventional rituals in the course of the go to earlier than returning to Mumbai.
Dhurandhar 2 – Revenge confirmed for 2026 launch
The makers have formally introduced a sequel titled Dhurandhar 2 – Revenge, set for launch on March 19, 2026. The movie is headed for a significant box-office conflict with Yash’s extremely anticipated Poisonous: A Fairy Story for Grown-Ups.Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar continues to carry out steadily abroad, incomes Rs 44.08 crore internationally inside 4 days. Nonetheless, its international potential has taken a big hit due to a whole ban throughout the Gulf. In line with reviews, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE haven’t launched the movie, regardless of efforts from the makers to safe clearance. The Gulf area is historically considered one of Bollywood’s strongest worldwide markets, making the absence a significant setback for the movie’s abroad totals.
