After the smashing success of his last release Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety (2018), filmmaker Luv Ranjan has emerged as one of the most sought-after directors in Bollywood who every actor wants to work with at least once.
Ranjan is presently busy with his upcoming production venture De De Pyaar De, starring Ajay Devgn, Tabu and Rakul Preet Singh in lead roles. He is also helming an untitled film with Ajay Devgn and Ranbir Kapoor headlining the cast.
The latest we hear that Luv Ranjan is planning one more film for which he wants to rope in seasoned actress Madhuri Dixit. According to reports, Ranjan and Dixit had a meeting last week and a project could be on the cards.
Talking about Dixit’s forthcoming projects, the diva is presently busy promoting her next film Total Dhamaal, which also stars Ajay Devgn, Anil Kapoor, Arshad Warsi, Boman Irani, Sanjay Mishra and many more.
She is also shooting for Dharma Productions’ period drama Kalank, co-starring Sanjay Dutt, Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, Sonakshi Sinha and Aditya Roy Kapur. The movie is set to release on 19th April, 2019.
Besides acting, Madhuri is busy on production front also. She is currently bankrolling a Marathi film called 15 August, which is set to premiere on Netflix. The movie marks her debut as a film producer.
Ranveer Singh’s rugged new look anchors the high-energy music video.
Rapper Hanumankind makes his official Bollywood début with a fierce verse.
Modern take on the classic Punjabi folk tune 'Jogi'.
Glimpses of Sanjay Dutt and Arjun Rampal in the mix.
The full trailer lands next month.
The Dhurandhar title track just hit the internet, and the noise around this spy thriller just went up a few notches. This is the track that pulls rapper Hanumankind into his first proper Bollywood playback moment. They have taken the old folk number 'Jogi' and built a power-packed version around it, a mix of earthy roots and straight-up aggressive energy that hits like a truck. It fits, honestly. It mirrors the film's whole gritty vibe and Ranveer Singh's battle-hardened look with that wild beard.

What is the Dhurandhar title track about?
You get a proper blast of the film’s atmosphere from this track. The music video cuts fast between shots of a heavily bearded and muscular Ranveer Singh, looking every bit the part of a hardened operative. The video cuts to the other big names in the cast as well. Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal are all there in what appears to be a tense, dark situation. The music includes traditional Punjabi folk with a stronger, cinematic rhythm.
How did Hanumankind get involved in the Dhurandhar song?
It turns out his involvement was a pretty organic, almost spontaneous thing. Music composer Shashwat Sachdev opened up about how the rap section came together. Apparently, it happened during a late-night studio session with director Aditya Dhar and Hanumankind himself. They captured an impromptu performance that just clicked, bringing what Sachdev called a "raw, instinctive fire" to the whole track. For an artist known for his independent work, this Dhurandhar feature is a major step into the mainstream film scene.
All this build-up is heading towards a definite date. The makers confirmed it right at the end of the title track video. Dhurandhar is locked in for a worldwide theatrical release on 5 December of this year. For those who need more than a song to tide them over, the official trailer is promised for 12 November.
