Star-Director Combo Second Time: Just For Hype?

Ranveer Singh is set to return to the big screen with his highly anticipated action entertainer Dhurandhar, directed by Aditya Dhar. Scheduled for a December 5 release, the film has generated significant buzz thanks to its star-studded cast and grand scale.

Currently in production, Dhurandhar has already sparked talks about another collaboration between Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar. Sources reveal that the duo is developing a new action project, with both sharing a strong creative vision for this genre. Work on this new venture is expected to begin in March 2026 after Dhurandhar is completed.

The upcoming project is likely to start filming by the end of 2026 once Ranveer wraps up his Don 3 schedule. Industry talk suggests this announcement may also be aimed at keeping Dhurandhar in the public eye, as its initial excitement has slightly faded amid other big releases and trailer launches.

The film’s first look made waves initially, but interest has seen a decline with the rise of competing releases. With Dhurandhar facing a high-profile clash against War 2 and Coolie, some fans believe this new project reveal is a strategy to boost hype.

While the clash and competition remain strong, Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar’s upcoming ventures are drawing attention for their potential. As for Dhurandhar, the final verdict will only be known once it hits theatres.
