As the success wave of Dhurandhar continues to grow, fans are eagerly waiting for its second part, scheduled for release in March 2026. The film has emerged as a game-changer, making its sequel one of the most anticipated releases of the year.
With the two-part format working effectively for Dhurandhar, the trend is now drawing attention from major production houses. Despite stiff competition from other big films, the sequel has managed to dominate audience interest and industry discussions.
Industry sources suggest that filmmakers are now keen to replicate this strategy. The success of releasing films in two closely spaced parts has encouraged makers to rethink release plans for large-scale projects.
According to confirmed reports, Shah Rukh Khan and Sanjay Leela Bhansali may adopt this approach for their upcoming films King and Love and War. Both projects are said to be under consideration for a two-part release format.
Sources indicate that Love and War could release its two parts in August 2026 and January 2027. Meanwhile, King is reportedly eyeing a September 2026 release followed by a second part in March 2027.
King is expected to mark Shah Rukh Khan’s return to the big screen after nearly three years. On the other hand, Love and War is a high-budget project starring Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal.
Dhurandhar made effective use of the two-part format through layered subplots and expanded storytelling. Whether the same strategy will deliver similar success for King and Love and War remains to be seen.
