As rival gangs, corrupt officials and a ruthless Major Iqbal close in, Hamza's mission for his country spirals into a bloody personal war where the line between patriot and monster disappears in the streets of Lyari.

Critic Consensus

Dhurandhar: The Revenge has received a broadly positive reception, with critics widely lauding Ranveer Singh's commanding central performance and Aditya Dhar's direction, particularly the gripping climax. The ensemble cast, including R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, and Rakesh Bedi, also drew praise from several reviewers. The most common criticisms point to a sluggish first half, an overlong runtime, and a sense that the sequel falls short of the original film's tight storytelling and emotional impact. Overall, the film is seen as a visually grand and entertaining ride despite its pacing and runtime issues.

"Ranveer Singh keeps us looking, all through the plodding first half of Aditya Dhar film, and in the slightly-more speeded up post-interval section, but you miss Akshaye Khanna's stylish Rehman Dakait."

"Dhurandhar The Revenge falls short of the original's tight storytelling, making the sequel feel visually grand but emotionally less impactful overall. Despite its scale and ambition, Dhurandhar 2 feels slightly weaker in comparison to the original film."

"Dhurandhar: The Revenge is loud, political, and deeply character-driven, refusing to play safe at any point. Ranveer Singh leads a film that knows exactly the impact it wants to leave behind."

"Not just Ranveer Singh; R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, and Rakesh Bedi's performances were absolutely mind-blowing!"

"Aditya Dhar and Ranveer Singh deliver an absolute cinema with a few flaws that one can choose to overlook. Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge packs a punch with its action, performances, direction and twists. However, the pace, runtime, and BGM could do better."

"Aditya Dhar's direction is excellent. He has narrated the drama in such a fascinating manner that the viewers will feel not just entertained but also enlightened. The last around half an hour of the drama — which is pretty much the climax — is outstanding and keeps the audience at the edge of their seats."
