The Five Must-Watch Indian Spy Movies If You Loved Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar 2

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, May 26 - Director Aditya Dhar's spy action thriller Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge have changed the game for Indian cinema in this genre. Grounded espionage and raw action are the core of the blockbuster franchise. Ranveer Singh's gritty performance as deep-cover agent Jaskirat Singh Rangi set a new gold standard for realistic Indian spy thrillers. If you love complex, chapter-based plots, tense standoffs, and nation-first narratives, these five Indian spy masterpieces will keep you on the edge of your seat. While Dhurandhar has definitely set the bar super high, these five films have been the gold standard in this genre. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Baby (2015) Where to Watch - JioHotstar, YouTube (rent) Directed by Neeraj Pandey, Baby is about an elite, unnamed Indian counter-intelligence team that sets out on a ticking-clock mission to track down a terrorist group and eliminate dangerous sleeper cells. Starring Akshay Kumar as lead agent Ajay Singh Rajput, alongside Rana Daggubati and Taapsee Pannu, the film opts for hyper-realistic action, gritty international locations, and a raw, professional look at the gruelling reality of spy work. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Madras Cafe (2013) Where to Watch - Prime Video, YouTube (rent), Apple TV This political thriller is directed by Shoojit Sircar and features John Abraham as the lead agent and Nargis Fakhri as an international journalist. In the movie, an Indian army special forces officer is recruited by the intelligence wing to infiltrate a war-torn island and break up a powerful rebel force. It feels almost like a documentary, exploring the dark, heavy realities of real-world spy craft. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) D-Day (2013) Where to Watch - Prime Video, MX Player, YouTube Directed by Nikkhil Advani, the film focuses on a highly secret, four-member R&AW team that infiltrates Pakistan to capture and bring back "Goldman," India's most wanted criminal mastermind. The film boasts a powerhouse cast including Arjun Rampal (who also stars in Dhurandhar), Rishi Kapoor, Irfan Khan, and Huma Qureshi. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Vishwaroopam (2013) Where to Watch - JioHotstar A seemingly effeminate Kathak dance teacher in New York is hunted by the FBI, only to reveal he is a highly lethal, top-tier Indian intelligence agent tracking a global terror network. Written, directed, and led by cinema legend Kamal Haasan, the movie also stars Rahul Bose and Pooja Kumar. It mirrors Dhurandhar's massive global scope, explosive hand-to-hand combat choreography, and clever use of shifting secret identities to outsmart dangerous adversaries. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Raazi (2018) Where to Watch - Prime Video, Netflix, Apple TV On the eve of the 1971 Indo-Pak war, a young, untrained Kashmiri girl is married into a high-ranking Pakistani military family to serve as a deep-cover spy. Directed by Meghna Gulzar, this critically acclaimed film stars Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal in lead roles. The film explores the heavy emotional weight of patriotism and the terrifying fear of operating behind enemy lines.

Tera Yaar Hoon Main: Indra Kumar's Son Aman To Debut On July 31; Milap Zaveri Directorial Postponed

BY SACNILK

The upcoming Bollywood romantic drama Tera Yaar Hoon Main has seen a shift in its theatrical release plans. The makers have officially moved the film from its original May 22 slot to a new release date of July 31, 2026. This postponement places the movie in the heart of the monsoon season, aiming to capture the mid-year audience with its mix of music and emotional storytelling. The film carries significant industry interest as it marks the acting debut of Aman Indra Kumar, the son of veteran filmmaker Indra Kumar. In this project, Aman is paired with Akanksha Sharma, creating a fresh on-screen duo for the audience. The narrative, described as a relatable coming-of-age story, follows the journey of a carefree boy from Nagpur who moves to the bustling city of Mumbai. The plot is expected to delve into the complexities of friendship, love, and the inevitable heartbreaks that come with life in a new city. Directing this venture is Milap Milan Zaveri, who is known for his work on commercial entertainers like Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat. Zaveri's involvement suggests a film that will balance mass appeal with a strong emotional core. To further strengthen the cast, the production has brought in veteran actor Paresh Rawal for a pivotal role, ensuring that the younger leads are supported by a seasoned performer who can add depth to the family and friendship dynamics of the script. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) One of the major highlights of Tera Yaar Hoon Main is its soundtrack, which features a rare and nostalgic musical collaboration. Legendary singer Udit Narayan has teamed up with his son Aditya Narayan for a specific track in the film. This father-son recording is being viewed as a full-circle moment for producer Indra Kumar, who has a long-standing history of working with Udit Narayan on some of his biggest musical hits in the past. The emphasis on a strong emotional score aligns with the film's positioning as a heartfelt entertainer. This musical partnership between the Indra Kumar family and Udit Narayan is one of the most successful in Hindi cinema history. It has previously yielded chart-topping albums for blockbuster films such as Dil, Beta, Raja, Ishq, and Mann. Their collaboration continued into the 2000s with successful soundtracks in movies like Aashiq, Rishtey, Masti, and Pyare Mohan. By bringing Udit Narayan back for Aman Indra Kumar's debut, the makers are revisiting a legacy that has defined the musical identity of their production house for over three decades. Produced by Bina Indra Kumar, Ajay Murdia, and Manish Singhal under the banner of A Camera Take Films, the project is presented by Ajay Murdia in association with Mumbai Films, BIK Productions, and Enter10 Television. With the new July 31 release date, the team is banking on the film's blend of relatable character arcs and high-quality music to stand out in the 2026 box office calendar.

Dhamaal 4 Release Date Shift: A Strategic Move to Maximize the Summer 2026 Comedy Window

BY SACNILK

Dhamaal 4 has a new release date, with the film now scheduled to arrive in theaters on July 17, 2026. As per an exclusive report by Bollywood Hungama, the sequel has moved from its initial July 3 slot to avoid a potential box office overlap with Welcome to the Jungle, which is currently slated for June 26. This adjustment provides both big-budget comedies with a better opportunity to find their audience without competing for the same screens immediately upon release. What makes this move particularly noteworthy is the reported gentleman's agreement between superstars Ajay Devgn and Akshay Kumar. According to trade sources, the two actors had a direct conversation and agreed that releasing two large-scale comedies just a week apart would likely cannibalize each other's business. By shifting the dates, they have ensured that both projects have enough breathing space to maximize their box office potential in a very busy summer market. Welcome to the Jungle, directed by Ahmed Khan, remains the first big comedy event of the season. It features a sprawling cast including Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Raveena Tandon, and Paresh Rawal, among many others. By moving Dhamaal 4 to July 17, the industry ensures a nearly three-week gap between these two tentpole releases. This window is considered ideal in today's theatrical environment, as it allows the first film to exhaust its primary run before the next major release arrives to claim screens and audience attention. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Dhamaal 4 marks the return of the popular franchise under director Indra Kumar. The film brings back the beloved core cast of Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, Sanjay Mishra, and Jaaved Jaaferi, while adding new faces like Ravi Kishan, Esha Gupta, and Sanjeeda Shaikh. Interestingly, Arshad Warsi is part of both ensembles, making the staggered release even more logical for the trade and for the actors involved, ensuring their work doesn't compete with itself. From a trade perspective, this reshuffle could turn the summer of 2026 into one of the biggest seasons for the comedy genre in recent history. Instead of fighting for the same screens, both films are now positioned as standalone theatrical events. This rare example of collaboration over competition reflects a maturing industry where stars and producers are increasingly prioritizing long-term profitability and word-of-mouth over high-profile clashes at the ticket window. The production of Dhamaal 4 involves a massive collaboration between T-Series, Devgn Films, and Maruti International. With Indra Kumar at the helm and a production team including Bhushan Kumar and Kumar Mangat Pathak, the film is poised for a wide release. The revised plan allows for a cleaner run to bring in the moolah, ensuring that the franchise has every opportunity to succeed when it hits theaters on July 17, 2026.

Makers Address Rumours of Akshay Kumar's Remuneration For Golmaal 5

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, May 16 - The makers of the upcoming comedy entertainer Golmaal 5 have reportedly addressed the ongoing rumours surrounding Akshay Kumar and his reported remuneration for the film. Over the last few days, multiple reports claimed that Akshay was being paid a massive 35-40 crore fee for a short shooting schedule in the upcoming comedy entertainer. However, the production house, Rohit Shetty Picturez, has now dismissed all such reports as baseless and purely speculative. In an official statement (via Bollywood Hungama), the spokesperson clarified that the commercial details of the film are confidential and that the numbers being circulated online are not true. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The clarification came after it was reported in the media that Akshay Kumar was charging more than Ajay Devgn for the film. According to those reports, Akshay was allegedly receiving 35-40 crore for around 18-22 days of shoot, while Ajay Devgn was said to be working on a profit-sharing model. Despite the rumours, the makers have requested fans to support the film and avoid believing unverified financial reports. The makers stated that the team is making the film with a lot of love and urged audiences to focus on the excitement surrounding the project rather than speculation about actor fees. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Directed by Rohit Shetty, the film marks the fifth instalment of the hugely popular Golmaal franchise. Apart from Ajay Devgn and Akshay Kumar, the movie also stars Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor, Shreyas Talpade, Sharman Joshi, and Kunal Kemmu in prominent roles.

Mohanlal's Drishyam 3 To Have Biggest Release Outside Kerala As Makers Confirm Different Versions of The Film In Malayalam and Hindi

BY SACNILK

Kochi, May 13 - The makers of Drishyam 3 are planning a historic release strategy for the film, with the Mohanlal starrer set to get one of the biggest pan-India rollouts ever for a Malayalam movie. Recent reports confirm that the thriller will release not only in Malayalam but also in dubbed versions across multiple languages, while a separate Hindi adaptation is already in the works with major changes tailored for the North Indian audience. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) According to producers Kumar Mangat Pathak and Abhishek Pathak, the Malayalam version of the film will release in over 500 screens outside Kerala, with the number potentially going as high as 800-900 screens depending on exhibitor demand. The makers described it as the biggest pan-India release ever for a Malayalam film, highlighting the massive anticipation surrounding the return of Georgekutty. The film stars Mohanlal in the iconic role of Georgekutty, with Jeethu Joseph once again directing the franchise. Reports also confirm that the movie will simultaneously release in Telugu, Tamil, and Kannada dubbed versions alongside the Malayalam original, significantly expanding its reach beyond the Kerala market. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Meanwhile, the Hindi adaptation of Drishyam 3 starring Ajay Devgn is being developed separately and will not completely mirror the Malayalam version.

Mohanlal's Drishyam 3 Confirmed To Be Released In Telugu, Kannada, and Tamil Dubbed Versions

BY SACNILK

Kochi, May 11 - The buzz surrounding Drishyam 3 continues to grow bigger with every passing day. After a strong response to the film's promotional material and initial advance bookings, the makers have now confirmed that the Mohanlal-starrer will release not only in Malayalam but also in Telugu, Tamil, and Kannada dubbed versions. Jeethu Joseph Confirms Dubbed Version Release of Drishyam 3 (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Director Jeethu Joseph confirmed in an interview that the dubbed versions are being prepared alongside the original Malayalam release. Unlike the previous instalments, which were later remade in different industries, the third part is expected to arrive simultaneously for audiences across South India. This move is seen as an attempt to capitalise on the nationwide popularity of the franchise and Mohanlal's growing reach outside Kerala. The development also reportedly rules out the possibility of separate remakes in some industries, especially Telugu cinema. The earlier Telugu adaptations, titled Drushyam and Drushyam 2, featured Venkatesh Daggubati in the lead role and were successful at the box office. With the Telugu version being planned, the remake option is no longer in the making. Meanwhile, the Hindi remake of Drishyam 3, starring Ajay Devgn, is already in production for an October 2, 2026, release. Strong Advance Booking In Kerala and Overseas (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Drishyam 3 has already started its box office journey on a promising note. The pre-sales of the film have crossed 2 crore gross in Kerala, while worldwide sales have topped 5 crores gross for the opening day, with several days still left for release on May 21, plus the full-fledged bookings are yet to open in many regions. The strong initial response reflects the massive anticipation surrounding Georgekutty’s return and the continuation of one of Indian cinema’s most iconic thriller sagas. The Drishyam franchise remains one of Indian cinema's most celebrated thriller series. The first film became a blockbuster and was later remade in multiple languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Sinhala, and even Chinese. The sequel was released directly on Amazon Prime Video and scored solid viewership, strengthening the franchise's reputation for gripping storytelling and unpredictable twists.

Drishyam 3 UK Advance Booking Opens 4 Weeks Early; Official Teaser Date Inside

BY SACNILK

Advance bookings for Mohanlal's Drishyam 3 are set to open in the UK today, marking an early start four weeks before the film's official theatrical release. Industry tracker AB George reported that RFT Films and the Cineworld chain are initiating this window, which is an unusually long lead time for an Indian film in the international market. Adding to the momentum, Mohanlal has officially announced that the first teaser of the film will be released tomorrow, April 29, 2026, at 5 PM IST. The UK market has played a pivotal role in the global journey of this franchise, dating back to 2013 when the first Drishyam became the first Malayalam film to gross over ₹1 crore in the territory. While the 2021 sequel opted for a direct-to-digital release during the pandemic, Drishyam 3 marks the first major theatrical return for the series in over a decade. The landscape for Malayalam cinema in the UK has evolved significantly during this gap, with recent hits like Vaazha 2 and L2: Empuraan expanding the reach of regional content. Due to strong brand loyalty, the franchise is often viewed as a family event in the region, successfully drawing in non-Malayali audiences through subtitled screenings. With an expanded theater network now available, the third installment is positioned to potentially become the highest-grossing Malayalam thriller in the history of the UK box office. This high-stakes global rollout is supported by a significant financial partnership established earlier this year. PEN Studios has committed an investment of ₹100 crore into Aashirvad Cinemas through Panorama Studios specifically for the production of the Malayalam original. This strategic collaboration between the major production houses ensures that the third installment is mounted on a massive scale, matching the worldwide demand and brand value that the Drishyam franchise has built over the years. The project was initially scheduled for an April 2 release but was postponed due to geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. As the GCC market is a vital territory for Malayalam cinema, the makers opted for a strategic delay to ensure an optimal release window. It is now confirmed that the Malayalam version will arrive in theaters first, dismissing earlier reports of a simultaneous rollout with other versions to safeguard the film's narrative twists. Furthermore, the Hindi remake featuring Ajay Devgn is already set for an October 2, 2026, release, aligning with the Gandhi Jayanti holiday. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The decision by UK distributors to open bookings a month in advance highlights the massive brand equity of the Drishyam franchise. By providing a longer booking window, the team intends to capitalize on the popularity of the Georgekutty character to secure a strong opening weekend in Europe. While the original version leads the way, the Hindi remake featuring Ajay Devgn is already locked for a Gandhi Jayanti release on October 2, 2026, ensuring the franchise remains a topic of discussion throughout the year. The speed at which a film reaches the ₹1 Crore pre-sales milestone has become a major benchmark for tracking superstar-led projects in Kerala. Currently, Empuraan holds the record for the fastest film to hit this mark, followed by Leo and the multi-starrer BhaBhaBa. The Mammootty-Mohanlal starrer Patriot also features prominently in this list of top openers, alongside the highly anticipated Coolie. With Drishyam 3 preparing for its domestic rollout, industry eyes are on whether the Mohanlal-Jeethu Joseph collaboration can challenge the top spot currently occupied by Empuraan and set a new standard for pre-release momentum in the state. Drishyam 3 is positioned as a prestigious project intended to conclude the legendary thriller saga. The early booking rollout in the UK serves as a strategic move to establish a record-breaking global footprint, with similar early windows expected in North America and the Gulf. As one of the most anticipated sequels in Indian cinema, the film is expected to be a major high-priority title for the Mollywood box office, aiming to set new benchmarks for regional cinema on the international stage.

Jio Studios' Box Office Momentum: From Dhurandhar Success To Riteish Deshmukh's Historical Epic Raja Shivaji

BY SACNILK

Jio Studios is currently navigating a high-stakes transition at the box office as it moves from the action-heavy success of the Dhurandhar franchise to its most ambitious historical project, Raja Shivaji. The Dhurandhar duology, which peaked with its sequel in March 2026, set a massive benchmark by grossing over ₹3,000 crore worldwide. To maintain this momentum, the studio utilized the theatrical run of Dhurandhar: The Revenge to aggressively promote Raja Shivaji, ensuring the film reached a massive, captive audience well before its May release. The comparison between these two films highlights the evolving strategy of the studio. While Dhurandhar dominated the spy-thriller genre, Raja Shivaji is being positioned as a cultural landmark. With a reported budget of ₹100 crore, it stands as the most expensive Marathi film ever produced. Directed by and starring Riteish Deshmukh, the project is backed by high-profile technical names like cinematographer Santosh Sivan and the music duo Ajay-Atul. This project follows the studio's successful pattern of scaling regional content, much like how Stree 2 was elevated to cross the ₹600 crore mark in the Hindi market. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The studio's ability to turn diverse stories into box office gold is evident from their recent filmography. By balancing massive commercial entertainers with grounded, content-driven cinema, Jio Studios has created a portfolio that appeals to every segment of the audience. Their recent track record includes everything from record-breaking horror-comedies to international award contenders, showcasing a highly successful selection process. 2026 Releases (Current & Upcoming) Dhurandhar: The Revenge (Released 19 March 2026) – The massive spy sequel currently dominating the box office. Raja Shivaji (Releasing 1 May 2026) – The historical epic directed by and starring Riteish Deshmukh. Khashaba (Upcoming 2026) – A biopic on India's first individual Olympic medalist, Khashaba Dadasaheb Jadhav. 2025 Releases Dhurandhar (December 2025) – The first part of the spy franchise that became a global blockbuster. Baramulla (November 2025) – A supernatural thriller set in Kashmir (direct OTT release). Thamma (October 2025) – A gothic romance set in the Maddock Horror-Comedy Universe. Mrs. (Early 2025) – A critically acclaimed social drama released directly on OTT. Major 2024 Hits Stree 2 – The record-breaking horror-comedy that crossed ₹600 crore in India. Article 370 – A political drama starring Yami Gautam. Laapataa Ladies – The satirical comedy that became India's official entry for the 2025 Oscars. Munjya – A surprise box-office hit based on Indian folklore. Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya – A sci-fi romantic comedy starring Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon. The ground-level interest is beginning to reflect in the numbers with a decent start in initial advance booking trends. On April 27, 2026, the film recorded 22,410 tickets sold on BookMyShow within a 24-hour window, showing a steady buildup of momentum. With the official release slated for May 1 to coincide with the Maharashtra Day holiday, the film is looking to leverage this early interest into a productive opening weekend, particularly across the Maharashtra circuit. This calculated move to release a high-budget historical project on a public holiday is designed to maximize footfalls by aligning the cultural narrative with a significant festive window. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Beyond Raja Shivaji, the studio is actively building a diversified slate that spans multiple genres and languages. This includes the recently announced reboot of the cult classic Khal Nayak with Sanjay Dutt and a biopic on Olympic wrestler Khashaba Jadhav. The studio is also pushing technological boundaries with the AI-native film Krishna, directed by Manu Anand. By managing a portfolio that includes prestigious projects like India's official Oscar entry Laapataa Ladies alongside mass entertainers, the studio has created a balanced ecosystem that appeals to both critics and the masses. The financial framework for these ambitious productions is supported by a platform-agnostic distribution strategy. Jio Studios has locked in substantial digital deals between ₹150 crore and ₹285 crore to integrate its blockbuster content into the JioHotstar platform. Furthermore, the 50.1% stake in Sikhya Entertainment reflects a long-term goal of fostering creator-driven content with international appeal. While Raja Shivaji operates in a different space than the action-heavy Dhurandhar, its production underscores Jio Studios' broader commitment to backing culturally rooted narratives with high-end technical resources.

Raja Shivaji Advance Bookings Open: Marathi Version Leads with 6.2K Daily Interests on BMS; Pan-India Rollout Starts for May 1 Release

Raja Shivaji has officially opened its advance bookings for the Marathi version, signaling the start of what is expected to be a historic theatrical run for the legendary warrior epic. Directed by and starring Riteish Deshmukh, the film is slated for a massive worldwide release on May 1, 2026, perfectly timed to capitalize on the Maharashtra Day holiday boost. With Jio Studios presenting the film under its Make in India, Show the World philosophy, the project represents one of the most ambitious historical productions to emerge from the region, backed by an estimated budget exceeding 100 crore. The partnership between Jyoti Deshpande of Jio Studios and Riteish Deshmukh’s Mumbai Film Company has been in development for nearly eight years, reflecting the meticulous planning behind this large-scale venture. Shot over approximately 100 days in authentic locations like Mahabaleshwar, Satara, and Wai, the film chronicles the early years of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and the establishment of Swarajya. This deeply personal project for Riteish Deshmukh follows a string of recent successes for Jio Studios, including Stree 2 and Dhurandhar 2, and the industry is watching closely to see if this language-agnostic production can achieve a similar level of global resonance. Basically, the digital buzz is already translating into significant momentum on ticket-booking platforms. Within the last 24 hours alone, Raja Shivaji recorded 6.2K interests on BookMyShow, comfortably outpacing other high-profile upcoming titles like HJTIHH and KD The Devil. Even high-budget pan-India titles like Spirit, Toxic, and Peddi are currently trailing with 1K interests each over the same 24-hour window, underscoring the localized domestic hype for the Riteish Deshmukh starrer. Total interests on the platform have already crossed the 83,000 mark, signaling a massive opening day, particularly across the Maharashtra circuit. While the Marathi bookings are currently live in several regions, the Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam versions are expected to roll out across all major chains like PVR INOX and Cinepolis over the next 24 hours to meet the pan-India demand.

Adding to the theatrical pull is the high-voltage excitement surrounding Salman Khan’s cameo as Jeeva Mahala, which is expected to provide a major fillip to the Hindi version's performance. With a celebrated ensemble cast and the technical expertise of cinematographer Santosh Sivan and music directors Ajay-Atul, the production scale is designed to compete with recent historical blockbusters. By natural course of trajectory, the combination of a major holiday release and the emotional connect of the subject matter should ensure a robust opening weekend.
