About Dhurandhar

Dhurandhar is set against the backdrop of India-Pakistan tensions in the late 1990s and early 2000s, drawing inspiration from true events like the 1999 IC-814 Kandahar hijacking, the 2001 Indian Parliament attack, and the 2008 Mumbai attacks.

The story begins with the Indian government being forced to release three terrorists in exchange for the passengers of a hijacked plane, an event that deeply affects Indian intelligence officer Ajay Sanyal (R. Madhavan).

Years later, with new political leadership, Sanyal gets the green light for a daring covert operation: Operation Dhurandhar, aimed at eliminating terrorism from within Pakistan.

This story follows Jaskirat Singh Rangi (Ranveer Singh), a convicted prisoner assigned to this high-profile mission. Rangi, adopting the identity of Hamza Ali Mazari, lands at the dangerous, gang-controlled Lyari town in Karachi, Pakistan. The plot is woven through his deep-cover missions, establishing contacts with rival gangs, the Pakistani intelligence agency (ISI) and local politics, while simultaneously sending intelligence to India.The first part focuses on Hamza establishing his hideout and building trust in a volatile environment, and the promising second part focuses on his revenge and next steps.
