Galleria Mall, Yalahanka, Bengaluru.

After me watching DURANDHAR -2 movie, and Mom watching 'LOVE MOCKTAIL - 3",  we relaxed at the food court, eating some chats at BRAHMIN'S KHADYA.

DURANDHAR - 2 THE REVENGE - MOVIE

 Friday, March 27, 2026

Galleria Mall, Yalahanka, Bengaluru

The 4-hour long movie about Indian agent working in Afghanistan and Pakistan, finally able to crush the hideouts of terrosits.

Dhurandhar The Revenge introduces Jaskirat Singh Rangi, tracing the chain of events that compel him to become Hamza Ali Mazari, and follows his rise as he operates deep inside Pakistan.

Dhurandhar (धुरंधर) is a Hindi/Sanskrit term referring to an expert, stalwart, or a highly skilled and capable person. It describes someone who is a master of their craft, a leader, or someone who efficiently bears heavy responsibilities (similar to a "key player" or "top gun"). 

Centered around spy-man Hamza Ali Mazari, played by Ranveer Singh, Dhurandhar is the name of the covert operation jiske tehat yeh jasoos Pakistan bheja jaata hai, to figure out ki internal politics kya chal rahi hai. The location chosen for this is the town of Lyari in Karachi. Partly because it’s politically important, but also because yahaan arajakta phaili hai. Gang wars and a diverse population of immigrants has made Lyari a hotbed for corruption and opportunism. Jiska faayda uthaakar, bataur spy ghul mil jaana asaan hai.

The film is broken up into 8 chapters, signifying little more than the passage of time. These titles, Stranger in the Land of Shadows, The Bastard King of Lyari, Bullets and Roses, The Jinn, The Devil’s Guardian, The Butterfly Effect, and finally Et Tu Brutus are perhaps an attempt to give the audience a break from trying to follow the sprawling and ever-expanding storyline by splitting it up into chunks. 

It's absolutely tiring to watch too long (4 hours) movie with so much killing, ghastly scenes explosions, and hyped scenarios.
