Mumbai, July 7 - Director Aditya Dhar has been trying to set up his second directorial venture after delivering one of the biggest blockbusters in 2019 with URI: The Surgical Strike. The filmmaker has had difficulties in taking his next film on floors due to financial hurdles.

Dhar was set to make the ambitious The Immortal Ashwatthama with Vicky Kaushal but due to its massive budget, it was shelved. The filmmaker then started on a new script, touted to be an action thriller and reportedly locked Ranveer Singh to headline it. Now, there is an update on the same.



According to the report by Peepingmoon.com, the movie has tentatively been titled Dhurandhar and Aditya Dhar has locked a stellar ensemble cast for the same. The report states that along with Ranveer Singh, the filmmaker has locked Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, and Arjun Rampal to play pivotal roles.

The report further said that although the actors are still not contractually signed, they are believed to have been creatively locked, and all other modalities are quickly being worked out. The movie is touted to be a fast-paced, mission-based action thriller.

Dhar will produce the film with his brother Lokesh Dhar under their banner B62 Studios, in partnership with a major studio as the movie will be made on a huge scale with a huge budget and will be shot in India and overseas. The director has already begun pre-production and aims to take it on floors towards the end of this year.
