Plot Summary
Dhurandhar is a sprawling spy action thriller centered on an Indian intelligence operation spanning years of geopolitical tension. The story takes place against the backdrop of historic Indo-Pak crises such as the IC-814 hijacking (1999) and the 2001 Indian Parliament attack, using these events to set the stakes for its covert narrative.
At its core, the film follows a high-risk mission masterminded by Indian Intelligence Bureau Chief Ajay Sanyal (played by R. Madhavan). Faced with a powerful terrorist network entrenched in Pakistan, Sanyal recruits an unlikely asset — a young Punjabi man held captive for a crime of revenge — to infiltrate deep into the hostile underworld. As the mission unfolds, the narrative explores themes of betrayal, sacrifice, patriotism, and the blurred lines between duty and vengeance
Ranveer Singh’s character Hamza (an undercover operative) becomes pivotal as he navigates complex loyalties and dangerous alliances within Karachi’s criminal and political landscape. The film builds toward tense confrontations with syndicate leaders, leading to a climactic resolution that paves the way for its post-credits sequel setup
