Mumbai/IBNS: Alia Bhatt has lauded filmmaker Aditya Dhar and actor Ranveer Singh over the blockbuster success of Hindi film Dhurandhar 2, which has taken the box office by storm.

In an Instagram story, Alia shared a still of Ranveer from a key sequence and praised his performance, saying it was perfectly in sync with the director’s vision.

She wrote, “Jaskirat Singh Rangi and this moment… is everything, the magic of the director and the actor in complete sync!”

The sequel, headlined by Ranveer Singh, reportedly earned around ₹43 crore through paid previews on Wednesday, followed by a massive opening on March 19.

According to reports, the film has grossed over ₹400 crore in India since its release, further amplifying the success of its predecessor Dhurandhar, also directed by Dhar.

In the film, Ranveer Singh appears to take control of Pakistan’s Lyari town following the death of gangster Rehman Dakait, played by Akshaye Khanna.

The trailer also showcases Singh in dual roles—Jaskirat Singh Rangi and Hamza—hinting at a layered and intense narrative.

Packed with high-octane action, the film features R. Madhavan as strategic mastermind Ajay Sanyal, Arjun Rampal as ISI Major Iqbal, and Sanjay Dutt as SP Chaudhary Aslam.
