Fans Uncover Hidden Connection Between Dhurandhar and Vicky Kaushal’s Uri in Ranveer Singh’s Character Easter Egg

Aditya Dhar’s latest film, Dhurandhar, is currently performing well at the box office. This spy drama features Ranveer Singh in the role of an Indian agent confronting terror networks in Pakistan. As discussions surrounding the film intensify, fans have begun to draw connections between Dhurandhar and Dhar’s previous success, Uri, from 2019.

Is There a Link Between Dhurandhar and Uri?

In Dhurandhar, Singh portrays Hamza, an operative chosen by the Indian intelligence chief, played by R. Madhavan. He is tasked with infiltrating Rehman Dakait’s gang in Pakistan’s Lyari. In a significant twist, it is revealed that Hamza is actually Jaskirat Singh Rangi, a convict seeking redemption.

The Jaskirat Singh Rangi Connection

Fans have highlighted the name Jaskirat Singh Rangi, asserting it ties back to a dialogue in Uri. In that film, Vicky Kaushal’s character interacts with Kirti Kulhari, who mentions that her husband, Captain Jaskirat Singh Rangi, was killed during a military operation. This has sparked widespread speculation about a deliberate connection between the two characters.

• Ranveer Singh’s character in Dhurandhar: Hamza / Jaskirat Singh Rangi
• Vicky Kaushal’s character in Uri: Captain Jaskirat Singh Rangi

Some fans believe the shared name is more than coincidental. One commented, “Dhurandhar and Vicky Kaushal’s Uri are connected through Ranveer Singh’s character.” Another added, “Both films directed by Aditya Dhar makes this connection plausible.”

Contrasting Timelines and Perspectives

Despite the intriguing theories, not all viewers are convinced. Critics have pointed out inconsistencies in the timelines and character backstories. Dhurandhar is set in 2002, while Uri unfolds around the 2016 surgical strike. One viewer speculated that the filmmakers may have chosen to reuse the name solely as a homage to Uri, rather than to suggest an actual link.

Dhurandhar’s Reception and Future Prospects

Dhurandhar has already amassed impressive earnings, with a net of ₹60 crore in India and a gross of ₹88 crore worldwide. The film also features prominent actors such as Sanjay Dutt and Arjun Rampal, along with Sara Arjun.

For fans eager for more revelations about Ranveer Singh’s character, the sequel, Dhurandhar 2, is expected to offer more insights when it releases on March 19, 2026.
