Dhurandhar: The Revenge early reviews 

The early reviews for Dhurandhar: The Revenge are out, and the critics are labelling the film a complete entertainer. "Even though the film runs close to 4 hours, it never feels boring. The story keeps you engaged throughout. The screenplay is outstanding, and the direction is mind-blowing. Action lovers are going to enjoy the super-intense, violent action sequences. Music, background score, album and tracks - everything hits hard and elevates the film. No doubt about it, Dhurandhar 2 is complete entertainment." After watching the film, even the filmmaker, Ram Gopal Varma, couldn't help but praise it.

He took to his social media account and called Dhurandhar: The Revenge "Sholay x 100". Ram Gopal Varma called it the "birth of a new cinematic order". He lauded the film for its "sheer cumulative impact in every which way, whether on its expected collections, audience euphoria, social influences, cinematic grammar breaking, and above all, the psychological audiovisual impact" In a long quote, he was quoted as saying:

"It will be a SHOLAY x 100 level magnificence. This is the BIRTH of a NEW CINEMATIC ORDER   and the ruthless extinction of everything that ever existed before. In the previous WORLD of CINEMA. The very spelling of the word DIRECTOR will start from @adityadharfilms name, and it will be prudent and wise for even STEVEN SPIELBERG and CHRISTOPHER NOLAN to drop everything they are doing, and catch #Dhurandhar2. FIRST DAY FIRST SHOW."

More about Dhurandhar: The Revenge

Dhurandhar: The Revenge has become one of the most talked-about films lately, especially after it avoided a direct box-office clash with Toxic: A Fairytale for Grown-Ups, starring Yash. The film was supposed to battle for box-office supremacy with the Yash-starrer. However, the film's makers postponed the latter. Since Toxic has now been pushed to a June 2026 release, the sequel has a clear advantage and is expected to enjoy a smoother and uninterrupted run in theatres. Dhurandhar: The Revenge has been produced with more resources than its predecessor. The first sequel had a limited release in India, but this one has a full movie release and is going to screen all over India. The film will be released in multiple languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam.
