Dhurandhar 2 trailer: Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar brought a tectonic shift in Hindi cinema after its release, raising audiences’ expectations from an action film. It was the biggest hit last year and went on to become one of the highest-grossing Hindi films ever. Now, the makers are set to release Dhurandhar 2 and, as anticipation rises, it remains to be seen whether the sequel will surpass its predecessor’s popularity — both in terms of audience love and box office moolah.
Amid the growing buzz, the makers are reportedly planning to unveil the film’s trailer on Tuesday, on the occasion of Holi. But before we get a glimpse of the highly anticipated film, here’s a look at everything we know about the sequel:
Dhurandhar 2 trailer
Earlier, the makers unveiled a promotional teaser of Dhurandhar 2 in February. However, fans were disappointed with the teaser as it merely showed the post-credits scenes of the first film. This is also the reason why the excitement for the film’s soon-to-be-released trailer is high, as fans are expecting to get a deeper look into the sequel.
Dhurandhar 2 runtime
Dhurandhar broke many patterns of a typical Hindi action film, and one of them was its runtime. The film had a runtime of 214.01 minutes, which is 3 hours, 34 minutes, and 1 second. If we go by a report in Bollywood Hungama, the sequel might be even longer than the first film, as it is reported that the sequel’s expected runtime is approximately 235 minutes, which comes to 3 hours and 55 minutes.
It is also to be noted that if this turns out to be true, Dhurandhar 2 will be among the longest Hindi films ever made. The 2003 war film LOC Kargil has the longest runtime of 4 hours and 7 minutes, and Dhurandhar 2 might take the second spot on the list. The makers are likely to confirm the same this week.
