Bollywood’s newest spy universe upgrades as Maddy reveals major secrets about training Jaskirat into HAMZA

Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar has not even completed a full week in theatres, and the audience is already behaving like they’ve been left on a cliffhanger with no safety rope. The Ranveer Singh–R Madhavan–Sanjay Dutt–Arjun Rampal spy actioner is smashing the box office, dominating conversations, and sparking theories across social media faster than you can say “Hamza kaun tha pehle?”

And now, with the makers officially announcing Dhurandhar 2 with a fixed release date — March 19, 2026 — the frenzy has only doubled. Fans finally want answers: How did Jaskirat become Hamza? What broke him? Who trained him? And why does Madhavan’s character Ajay Sanyal feel like the calmest man in the storm?

Well… R Madhavan just dropped the biggest hints yet.

“Aditya Dhar is a monk” — Maddy praises the man behind the madness

In a new conversation with Bollywood Hungama, R Madhavan couldn’t stop gushing about the film’s director Aditya Dhar — the same man who gave India Uri and now the explosive Dhurandhar universe. Many filmmakers have been called geniuses. Few have been called monks.

But Maddy is not your average compliment distributor.

“He is a monk,” Madhavan said. “Through all the chaos of making a film so dense and intense, he would sit there for the anxieties to settle down. What a fine human being!”

This one line has already gone viral because it explains exactly why audiences feel Dhurandhar is crafted with calm precision even when showing full-blown espionage chaos.

Dhurandhar 2: Ajay Sanyal’s REAL role revealed

Now for the juice — Ajay Sanyal (Madhavan’s character), the steely, stoic Director of the Intelligence Bureau, had a limited yet crucial presence in Dhurandhar. But Maddy has confirmed something fans were waiting to hear:

“In the second part, there is a lot of my character as he trains Ranveer’s character in skills of espionage warfare.”

Boom.
This means Dhurandhar 2 isn’t just a sequel — it’s the origin story the audience was begging for.

The training.
The transformation.
The psychological breakdown.
The rebuilding of Jaskirat into HAMZA — India’s most dangerous weapon.

If Part 1 showed the consequences, Part 2 will show the creation.

Spy universe feels incoming? Fans smell a franchise expansion

The moment Madhavan said “train Ranveer’s character in espionage warfare”, fans on X (Twitter) exploded with theories of:

Ajay Sanyal spin-off
Hamza: The Making
Dhurandhar Universe (DU)
Maybe even a crossover film with multiple spies

Given Aditya Dhar’s filmmaking pattern, one thing is clear — he doesn’t tell small stories, and he never leaves character potential unused.

Expect Dhurandhar 2 to go bigger, darker, and more emotionally intense.

Ranveer Singh’s Jaskirat-to-Hamza arc: The missing chapter

The biggest question everyone had after watching Dhurandhar was simple — “But how did Jaskirat become Hamza?”

The film teased it, hinted at it, and even emotionally manipulated us with glimpses… but now the full journey is coming.

Fans want to see:

the breaking point
the betrayal
the torture
the reinvention
the training
the creation of a spy with no past, only purpose

And Madhavan will be the one shaping this journey.

His calm, calculated presence vs. Ranveer’s explosive raw intensity?
That’s a cinematic goldmine.

Ranveer Singh + R Madhavan = an electrifying mentor-protégé dynamic

Ranveer is known for going deep into characters. Madhavan is known for bringing gravitas that silently dominates the frame. Their combination in Dhurandhar 2 will likely be the emotional spine of the entire sequel.

Think:

Uri-level tactics
Raazi-level psychological depth
Baby-style training sequences
And Ranveer’s trademark intensity cracking through every scene

It’s the kind of dynamic India’s spy thrillers haven’t explored in years.

Arjun Rampal, Akshaye Khanna & Sanjay Dutt — what happens next?

The supporting cast is already being praised as one of Bollywood’s strongest ensembles in years. While Madhavan hasn’t revealed plot details, the buzz strongly suggests:

Arjun Rampal’s shadowy track expands
Akshaye Khanna’s strategic brilliance gets more screen time
Sanjay Dutt’s character becomes a major pivot in Hamza’s transformation

Dhurandhar 1 set the chessboard.
Dhurandhar 2 will begin the real game.

Madhavan calls 2025 one of the biggest years of his career

Maddy also reflected on what the year has been like for him:

“I started the year with Hisaab Barabar. I am ending the year with Dhurandhar, which is one of the most important films of my career.”

He even mentioned working with legends like:

Mani Ratnam
Kamal Haasan
Rajkumar Hirani
Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra
Aanand L Rai
and now Aditya Dhar

“I couldn’t have asked for more,” he said.

This is a man who knows he’s living in a golden phase of his career — and Dhurandhar 2 will likely push him even higher.

Dhurandhar’s box office dominance fuels sequel hype

With theatres running houseful and audiences calling it:

“India’s best modern spy film”
“Ranveer’s most controlled performance”
“Madhavan’s most powerful comeback”

… the sequel was inevitable.

The official fixed date — March 19, 2026 — has already locked the film as one of Bollywood’s biggest future events.

Final Word: Dhurandhar 2 is not just a sequel. It’s the chapter fans desperately needed.

If Dhurandhar was the punch, Dhurandhar 2 will be the heartbeat.

A deeper story.
A psychological transformation.
A brutal spy training arc.
And the kind of intense Maddy–Ranveer chemistry Bollywood has NEVER seen before.

March 2026 cannot come fast enough.
