Akshaye Khanna's Dhurandhar 2 Return: Fact vs. Fiction
16 Jan
Summary
- Akshaye Khanna will not reshoot for Dhurandhar 2, contrary to reports.
- The film's director, Aditya Dhar, filmed both parts together originally.
- Akshaye Khanna appears in existing scenes shot earlier for the sequel.
Recent speculation suggested Akshaye Khanna would reshoot scenes for the highly anticipated sequel, Dhurandhar 2, to further develop his character, Rehman Dakait. However, these reports have been firmly denied by sources close to the production. The actor has not undertaken any new filming for the sequel since the initial production.
Director Aditya Dhar, who helmed the first installment which became a massive hit in 2025, had strategically filmed both parts of Dhurandhar simultaneously. This approach means there are no plans to alter the sequel's narrative to accommodate the fan-favorite character's popularity. The filmmaker aims to maintain the integrity of his original vision.
While fans hoping for new scenes will be disappointed, Akshaye Khanna's character, Rehman Dakait, will still be featured in Dhurandhar 2. These appearances will be drawn from footage that was filmed in the past as part of the original production schedule. Additionally, any necessary minor adjustments have been completed through patchwork filming, not reshoots.
