Why was Satish Kaushik credited for Dhurandhar?

Late actor Satish Kaushik, best known for his comic roles, was credited in Dhurandhar: The Revenge.

He originally acquired the title, and it eventually ended up with Dhar Films.

About Dhurandhar 2

Dhurandhar: The Revenge is a continuation from the 2025 release. Led by Ranveer Singh who plays the dual role of Hamza (Indian agent in Pakistan) and Jaskirat (original identity), the film also stars Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, Sara Arjun, Rakesh Bedi and others in pivotal roles.

Dhurandhar is the story of an Indian agent sent to Pakistan on a mission to provide intel on the neighbouring country, and take action accordingly. During his journey, he uncovers a lot that hides in plain sight – all before bagging the title of Sher-e-Baloch of Lyari.

Dhurandhar 2, completing three days at the Box Office, has already earned over Rs. 300 crores net and Rs. 500 crores gross worldwide. Whether a third part would release remains uncertain at the moment. Although there is a hint of it, including with the post-credit scene, there is no direct official confirmation on the same.
