Hold on to your excitement, movie fans! A rumour that has been doing the rounds about Vicky Kaushal reprising his iconic Major Vihaan character from Uri: The Surgical Strike in Dhurandhar 2 has been completely debunked. A source close to director Aditya Dhar has confirmed that this is not happening.
The wildly improbable story had suggested that Vicky Kaushal would play his beloved character from the 2019 blockbuster in the sequel to Dhurandhar. However, someone very close to the filmmaker has put all speculation to rest.
Source Calls It Fan Generated Speculation
The source close to director Aditya Dhar has completely denied the rumour. According to the source, Vicky Kaushal and Uri are not part of Dhurandhar 2 at all. The source expressed surprise about where these rumours originated from.
While understanding the curiosity and excitement fans have for the second part, the source made it clear that these should be treated as fan generated rumours and speculation. The source also expressed disappointment that media outlets were reporting such assumptions as news.
Dhurandhar 2 Continues Without Uri Connection
Dhurandhar 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the Ranveer Singh starrer spy thriller directed by Aditya Dhar. The first film was a massive success at the box office and created a lot of buzz for the franchise. Fans have been eagerly waiting for updates on the sequel.
The teaser for Dhurandhar 2 is reportedly attached to Border 2 which releases on January 23. The sequel is confirmed for an Eid 2026 release. While fans were excited about the possibility of seeing Major Vihaan in the Dhurandhar universe, it appears that the two franchises will remain separate.
Aditya Dhar’s Spy Universe Plans
Director Aditya Dhar has created two distinct cinematic universes with Uri: The Surgical Strike and Dhurandhar. Both films dealt with covert operations and military themes, which likely led fans to speculate about a crossover. However, it is now clear that the filmmaker has no plans to merge the two worlds.
Vicky Kaushal’s portrayal of Major Vihaan in Uri remains one of the most iconic performances in recent Bollywood history. The film’s dialogue "How’s the josh?" became a cultural phenomenon. Meanwhile, Dhurandhar with Ranveer Singh has established its own identity in the spy thriller space.
