“Dhurandhar” packs a punch as a gritty spy thriller that pulls no punches, blending high-stakes espionage with raw underworld grit. Ranveer Singh shines in a career-defining role as Hamza, an Indian agent who burrows into Karachi’s volatile Lyari gangs, navigating loyalty tests and deadly betrayals while feeding intel home.
Aditya Dhar directs with epic flair, drawing from real geopolitical tensions to craft a tale of infiltration, turf wars, and moral quicksand that feels urgently real. The near-three-and-a-half-hour runtime tests patience at times, but razor-sharp action sequences and taut suspense keep you locked in.
Supporting cast steals scenes too—Akshaye Khanna’s chilling ganglord, Sanjay Dutt’s tough cop, R. Madhavan’s sharp handler, and Arjun Rampal’s steely officer elevate every frame. Moody visuals and a pulsing score amplify the tension, making violence hit harder than most blockbusters.
If you crave complex spy stories over simplistic hero worship, this is essential big-screen viewing and a franchise opener with sequel potential. Bold, immersive, and unapologetic—Dhurandhar redefines Indian thrillers
