As the global countdown to this year’s biggest films begins, director Aditya Dhar has reached out to fans with an emotional appeal. On March 18, 2026, just hours before the first preview shows of 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge' commenced, the National Award-winning filmmaker issued an "earnest and heartfelt" request to his "Dhurandhar family" to protect the film's massive secrets. The Ranveer Singh-led espionage epic, a direct sequel to the 2025 blockbuster, is currently holding high-octane preview screenings across the globe ahead of its official wide release on March 19.

In a lengthy, sincere note shared on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, Aditya Dhar reflected on the journey from the first film's release on December 5, 2025, to the birth of this monumental sequel.




Dhar started the note with, "To my dearest, most extraordinary Dhurandhar family, 5th December 2025, Dhurandhar released in cinemas worldwide. And since then, you didn't just watch our film. You loved it. You lived it. You appreciated every quiet detail, debated every moment, rewatched it and noticed things I never even thought anyone would."

The note further read, "Somewhere in that beautiful, unpredictable journey, our film became yours. Then the nations. And then the world's! That is the most humbling, most moving gift a filmmaker can ever receive."

Aditya Dhar revealed that when they decided to make the sequel, they poured their hearts into the film. His note added, "So when we sat down to make Dhurandhar: The Revenge, we knew one thing with absolute certainty: we had to surprise you. We had to make you feel emotions you weren't prepared for. Deeply. Honestly. That is never easy. But for you, we tried our very hardest."

The director also expressed the desire for people to enjoy the film in theaters, not on a mobile device, indirectly asking to reject piracy. He shared, "We've put our hearts into Dhurandhar: The Revenge so you can experience every twist, every emotion, exactly the way it's meant to be felt. In a theatre, in the dark, surrounded by friends, family, and even strangers, everyone feeling the same emotions. That's how films should be experienced. Not on someone's phone in a blurry image."

Towards the end, he made a major request to everyone, saying, "Hence, here is my one, heartfelt, earnest request...PLEASE DON'T SHARE SPOILERS! Let every single fan walk in clueless but curious and walk out with their own deeply personal version of what they felt."

Dhar concluded his note, saying, "You made Dhurandhar what it is. Now I'm trusting you to protect what this becomes. With all my love and gratitude, Aditya Dhar. Bharat Mata ki... Jai!"
