R. Madhavan's BTS Clip Reveals Rain Reshaped Dhurandhar's Opening in Ladakh

The post arrives as the counter-terrorism thriller streams on Netflix ahead of a March 19 sequel.

Overview

  • Sharing an Instagram video, R. Madhavan said he was jokingly called “rainman” on set as persistent showers upended plans for a sunlit first shot.
  • Director Aditya Dhar had envisioned blue skies for contrast, but the team embraced the grey, rainy look that ultimately suited the opening.
  • The sequence was filmed in Leh-Ladakh and introduces Madhavan’s character in a runway setting tied to the film’s conflict without revealing plot turns.
  • Dhurandhar features an ensemble cast led by Ranveer Singh, R. Madhavan, Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna and Arjun Rampal, produced by B62 Studios with Jio Studios.
  • The film released in theatres on December 5, began streaming on Netflix on January 30, and a follow-up is scheduled to hit cinemas on March 19.
