Jio Studios has announced that their blockbuster Dhurandhar: The Revenge has received an impressive 16 nominations at the 2026 Indian National Cine Academy Awards. The nominations span major categories, including Best Film, Best Director for Aditya Dhar, Lead Actor for Ranveer Singh, and technical categories such as cinematography and fight choreography, highlighting both the scale and artistry of the action-thriller.
The official announcement was accompanied by a series of visually striking posters and stills featuring the ensemble cast. Debutant Sara Arjun received a Best Actress nod, while Akshaye Khanna was nominated for Best Negative Role. Fans eagerly engaged with the visuals, praising the critical recognition but also urging the producers to reveal box office figures, reflecting the high anticipation surrounding the film’s commercial performance on its third day in theaters.
Dhurandhar: The Revenge is the 2026 sequel to the 2025 film Dhurandhar, and the final installment of the duology. Produced by Dhar, Lokesh Dhar, and Jyoti Deshpande under Jio Studios and B62 Studios, the film follows an undercover Indian intelligence agent navigating Karachi’s criminal syndicates while confronting threats linked to the 26/11 attacks. The star-studded cast includes Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, Rakesh Bedi, Gaurav Gera, Danish Pandor, and Manav Gohil, with several actors reprising their roles from the first film.
Technically, the film is a powerhouse: music composed by Shashwat Sachdev, cinematography by Vikash Nowlakha, and editing by Shivkumar V. Panicker. With a runtime of 229 minutes, it ranks as the eighth longest Indian film ever produced, combining sprawling storytelling with high-octane action sequences that have become a signature of the franchise.
Released worldwide on March 19, 2026, coinciding with Gudi Padwa, Ugadi, and Eid, Dhurandhar: The Revenge has already become a cultural touchstone for Indian action cinema. The INCA nominations further cement its place as both a critical and commercial phenomenon, setting expectations high for awards night while reflecting the enduring appeal of Aditya Dhar’s action-packed espionage saga.
