Ranveer Singh’s high-octane spy action thriller Dhurandhar: The Revenge is heading to television screens across India for its official World Television Premiere. After a massive box office run and strong digital viewership on OTT streaming platforms, the sequel to Aditya Dhar’s espionage saga is scheduled to air exclusively on Star Gold on Sunday, October 18, 2026, at 7:00 PM IST. The broadcast timing is strategically set ahead of the Dussehra festive period to capture prime-time family viewership across Hindi-speaking belts, following the massive record set by the first installment which clocked over 50 million viewers on satellite television.
Star-Studded Ensemble and High-Stakes Espionage Narrative

Ranveer Singh reprises his gritty covert operative avatar, sharing the screen with a formidable ensemble including Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Akshaye Khanna, and Sara Arjun. The plot picks up immediately after the explosive climax of the opening film, delving deeper into covert intelligence networks, retaliatory strikes, and personal vengeance, complete with international scale, realistic tactical sequences, and edge-of-the-seat tension.
