Dhurandhar

Ranveer Singh’s blockbuster espionage action thriller Dhurandhar continues its rampage on Netflix after its theatrical success. The makers are now busy putting the finishing touches on its sequel, Dhurandhar: The Revenge, which is set to arrive in cinemas on March 19, 2026, in multiple languages.

Amid the release buzz, recent reports have revived an interesting development-stage detail that Dhurandhar was originally planned as an OTT web series. Several reports state that the story was first structured in an episodic format suited for streaming, with multi-chapter missions and deeper character exploration.

However, as the script expanded and the action scale increased, the makers reportedly shifted the project to a theatrical film format. The narrative was tightened, subplots were merged, and the screenplay was reshaped into a fast-paced feature designed for the big screen.

With the sequel nearing release, there is still no official confirmation of a separate web series, but industry chatter suggests the franchise could explore OTT spin-offs in the future if the universe grows further.
