FA9LA trivia: Akshaye Khanna’s dance was originally unplanned

Interestingly, Akshaye Khanna was not initially meant to dance in FA9LA. During filming, he spontaneously performed a few moves. Those spontaneous moments impressed director Aditya Dhar. The filmmaker ultimately decided to keep them in the final version of the song.

09:43 (IST), Mar, 07

Back-to-back shoot strategy for songs in sequel

The filmmakers reportedly shot both songs within a short span of time. This approach helped the team manage the demanding location conditions. A source told Mid Day, “After Akshaye’s character Rehman Dakait is killed in Dhurandhar, the Sher-e-Baloch title is given to Ranveer’s Hamza in the sequel. The song is a celebration of his ascension. Aditya shot Ranveer’s number on the same set in Ladakh. He decided to shoot the two songs back-to-back as the set was already standing, and given the challenging climatic conditions, it didn’t make sense to return to Ladakh later only for a song.”

Story context behind the new track in sequel

The new song is closely tied to the narrative arc of the sequel. It comes after the death of Rehman Dakait in the original film. According to reports, the track was filmed in Ladakh. The production team used the same elaborate set that had been created for the FA9LA song.

Dhurandhar 2 trailer launch fuels massive buzz

Anticipation is soaring for Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, the sequel to Aditya Dhar’s blockbuster spy drama. The makers are set to unveil the trailer today and fans are eagerly waiting for the first full glimpse of the upcoming film.

The excitement around Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge is reaching new heights as the makers prepare to unveil the trailer of the highly anticipated sequel. The film follows the massive success of Dhurandhar, which released in December 2025 and quickly became one of the biggest cinematic events of the year. Directed by Aditya Dhar, the original film blended espionage with gritty gangster storytelling, winning both commercial success and strong audience appreciation.

The story of the first film unfolded in Karachi’s turbulent Lyari neighbourhood. What initially appeared to be a gangster drama gradually revealed itself as a layered spy saga. This narrative twist became one of the defining aspects of the film. The movie also stood out for its strong ensemble cast, featuring Akshaye Khanna, Ranveer Singh, R. Madhavan, Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, and Rakesh Bedi.

Among them, Akshaye Khanna delivered one of the most memorable performances in the film. His intense portrayal became widely discussed on social media and continues to circulate online months after the release. Sanjay Dutt added power to the narrative with his role as a fearless cop, while Rakesh Bedi contributed moments of humour as a crafty politician.

R. Madhavan played the moral centre of the story, bringing emotional depth to the narrative. Arjun Rampal emerged as the key antagonist, adding tension and danger to the plot. At the heart of the film’s emotional journey, however, was Ranveer Singh, whose performance connected strongly with audiences.

The film proved to be a major turning point in Ranveer Singh’s career. After a series of films that struggled at the box office, Dhurandhar restored his commercial momentum. The movie earned ₹838.5 crore in domestic net collections and grossed an impressive ₹1,305.35 crore worldwide.

The film’s popularity was further boosted by the energetic music composed by Shashwat Sachdev. Its background score and songs became widely popular and played a crucial role in enhancing the film’s atmosphere.

Despite facing bans in parts of the Middle East, Dhurandhar managed to create a huge international buzz. Reports even suggested that the film became one of the most pirated titles in Pakistan and certain Middle Eastern cities. According to R. Madhavan, some fans even travelled to India to watch the film in theatres.

With the sequel Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge scheduled to release on March 19 during Eid, the upcoming trailer launch is expected to further fuel the excitement surrounding the film.
