Production

The sequel was developed as the second instalment of the Dhurandhar duology. Initially planned as a single film, the makers later decided to make the film a two-part release. Both the parts were shot together concurrently as a single project. The original plan was to release one long film, but the large amount of footage, scale and narrative complexity led the makers to split it into two parts during post-production process. Principal photography took place between July 2024 and October 2025 across India and Thailand. Additional shooting for second part also took place in months of January and February 2026.

Music

The soundtrack is composed by Shashwat Sachdev.The music rights were acquired by T-Series for ₹45 crore, replacing Saregama.

Marketing

A brief glimpse of the sequel appeared in the post-credits scene of the first instalment, revealing its title and release date. Initially, reports suggested that the teaser would be screened alongside Border 2 in theatres on 30 January 2026. This plan, however, did not materialise. Dhar later announced that the teaser would be released separately in the near future. The official teaser was unveiled on 3 February 2026. However, the footage that was used in the teaser was the same one as the glimpse that appeared in the post-credit scene of the first part, albeit with some modifications.
