Exciting Releases in March 2026
"Aandhi banke aaya hoon…" resonates not only with Dhurandhar 2, officially named Dhurandhar: The Revenge, but also with the excitement surrounding March 2026. The anticipated success of the Aditya Dhar–Ranveer Singh collaboration suggests that this month will be a cinematic highlight. With notable actors like Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, and R Madhavan returning, alongside the intriguing character of Bade Sahab, the sequel is poised to attract large audiences. Due to the immense buzz surrounding the film, many Bollywood producers are opting to avoid releasing their films during this period. Nevertheless, Dhurandhar 2 will face competition at the box office.

Dhurandhar: The Revenge is set to premiere in theaters on March 19, 2026. This sequel will delve into the backstory of Ranveer’s character, Jaskirat Singh Rangi, and showcase how Ajay Sanyal, portrayed by R Madhavan, mentors him to become a covert operative for Mission Dhurandhar in Karachi, Pakistan. Following the demise of Rehman Dakait, audiences are eager to discover the developments in Lyari. Will Hamza’s true identity come to light? Will Major Iqbal and SP Choudhary uncover his actual intentions? These intriguing questions will be addressed in the eagerly awaited sequel, and fans are buzzing with anticipation!
Toxic: A Fairytale For Grown Ups
Simultaneously, Kannada superstar Yash will star in the pan-India film Toxic, which is also set to release on March 19, 2026, coinciding with Dhurandhar 2. Directed by Geetu Mohandas, this film is being described as a gritty period gangster drama and features a stellar cast including Tara Sutaria, Kiara Advani, Nayanthara, Rukmini Vasanth, Tovino Thomas, and Kyle Paul. This clash between Toxic and Dhurandhar is anticipated to be one of the most significant box-office battles in Indian cinema, with competition for screens heating up in both North and South markets.

However, confirmation from the filmmakers regarding this date is still pending. Alongside these films, Anil Kapoor’s Subedaar is also expected to debut this month, but it will bypass theaters in favor of a direct OTT release.
