Mumbai, Feb 3 (IANS) The highly anticipated teaser of the 2nd part of the ‘Dhurandhar’ was unveiled on Tuesday. However, the teaser comes across as a downer as the makers have simply used the end credits sequence of the first part, and mixed it with music.

The teaser dampens the build-up for the 2nd part of the film which witnessed a historic turnout at the box-office. It features sequences carrying extreme violence, gore, explosions and gunshots. Ranveer’s titular character of an Indian spy infiltrating the criminal nexus of ISI and Pakistan underworld is in his full glory.

‘Dhurandhar 2’ will be released in 4 Indian languages, and will take off from where the first part ended. The music of ‘Dhurandhar’ was unanimously lauded across the sections of the society, considering the audio sequence used in the teaser, the audience may very well want to brace themselves for another chartbuster of an album loaded with sonic scape of immeasurable depth.

The story follows an Indian undercover agent undertaking deep-cover operations within criminal and political structures in Karachi, Pakistan, touching upon historical incidents in South Asian geopolitics. At 214 minutes, it is one of the longest Indian films ever released. It received an A certificate from the CBFC for strong violence and language.

From a cultural standpoint, the film’s significance lies less in narrative impact and more in its industrial context. The film represents Ranveer Singh’s return to a raw, physically demanding action space after a series of stylised or ensemble-driven projects. It also reinforces Bollywood’s ongoing shift toward director-led action cinema, where tone, research, and execution take precedence over formulaic spectacle.

The second part of the franchise is set to debut in cinemas on March 19, 2026 where it will clash the swords with the Yash-starrer ‘Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups’.

Mumbai, Dec 31 (IANS) Actress Ssara Khan and husband Krishh Pathak, who recently got married, have now turned into business partners too. The couple has ventured into production by launching their own production house.

Talking about why they chose to build a production house as partners, Sara shared, “We decided to be life partners, so this is how we are building our life together. We love the way we both work, equally.”

She openly expressed her admiration for Krishh’s creative mind, saying, “I truly admire Krishh’s creativity; it’s amazing. He already has many projects ready that he has created himself.” This creative excitement and respect for each other’s talent encouraged her to collaborate closely with him.

The couple is currently working on a film script jointly while also developing four songs across completely different genres, showcasing their creative range. Alongside this, they have been travelling to different cities for live shows.

The duo is also gearing up for their next big venture—a feature film in the action-comedy genre, which is set to go on floors in February. Produced under their own banner, the film will feature an ensemble cast, with Ssara and Krishh both playing important roles in it.

Talking about multitasking, Sara and Krishh highlight how balancing love and work has been an interesting and fulfilling journey for them. Sara explained, “This is my favourite part, personally—that you get to spend the most time with the person you love.” She also shared that disagreements are a natural part of working together. While they do fight often and become extremely serious at work, she believes those moments add depth to their relationship, saying, “It’s fun. It’s good to see that side of each other too.”

Creatively, their visions sometimes differ. Talking about it, Sara revealed, “I lean more towards budget-friendly content—where creativity matters more and the investment is less. But Krishh thinks larger than life.” However, she also mentioned that music is the space where they connect the most, as their understanding and passion align strongly there.

Reflecting on her biggest learning from working together, Sara said, “For me, my biggest learning has been patience, understanding that things can be done calmly and steadily, and listening to each other.” Looking ahead, the couple dreams big. “We genuinely want to make that kind of cinema the way hits used to be made: entertaining, theatrical, and unforgettable,” she shared, hoping their work remains meaningful, high in quality, and truly appreciated by audiences.

Sara Khan became a household name with “Sapna Babul Ka Bidai” and later worked in shows like “Preet Se Bandhi Ye Dori Ram Milai Jodi”. The two had earlier collaborated on a music single titled Dar Dar Jaun. The couple tied the knot on October 6th this year.
