Dhurandhar 2 Casting Director Mukesh Chhabra Denies Third Instalment Rumours in Interview

Amid growing speculation about a third instalment, casting director Mukesh Chhabra has clarified that there are currently no plans for Dhurandhar 3. His statement comes just days after the release of Dhurandhar 2, which has witnessed a massive box office response.

Addressing the rumours in a recent interview, Chhabra dismissed the ongoing speculation, stating that “nothing like that is going to happen” and attributing the buzz to widespread rumours. He added that he would personally clarify any major updates directly on social media if required, effectively putting an end to the ongoing chatter around a third film.

The sequel, starring Ranveer Singh, has emerged as one of the biggest hits of the year, crossing the ₹500 crore mark in India within just a few days of release. The film’s strong performance has naturally led to expectations of franchise expansion among fans and industry observers.

According to box office estimates, the film collected around ₹65 crore on its first Monday, taking its domestic total to over ₹519 crore net. Globally, the film has already crossed ₹800 crore, reflecting its widespread appeal across markets and languages.

Released on March 19, the film opened to a strong start, earning over ₹100 crore on its first day, followed by consistent growth over the weekend. Multi-language releases in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam have further boosted its overall collections, contributing to its blockbuster status.

Despite the film’s success and fan demand for a sequel, Chhabra’s statement suggests that any decision regarding the franchise’s future is yet to be formalised. For now, the focus remains on the continued theatrical run of Dhurandhar 2, which is setting new benchmarks at the box office.
