Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar is expected to be a three-hour-long film, marking the actor's lengthiest project to date. According to a Bollywood Hungama report, the final duration will be confirmed in the next 10 days.
A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Dhurandhar has a vast and expansive storyline. The focus is on Ranveer Singh's character and what he goes through, while other actors also play crucial parts. Director Aditya Dhar is clear that he doesn't want to rush through the narrative but, at the same time, wants to ensure that every scene engages and excites the audience.”
The source further added, “At present, the final runtime of Dhurandhar is more than three hours — around three hours and five minutes. The final duration, to be locked by Aditya Dhar, Jio Studios, and B62 Studios, will be confirmed in the next 10 days.” It remains to be seen whether the length will be shortened or remain as it currently stands.
