Ranveer Singh’s spy action thriller Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge is shaping up to be one of the most significant theatrical events of 2026 — and not just because of the film itself. Jio Studios is turning it into a full-blown movie festival by attaching teasers of two highly anticipated upcoming releases to its prints this Eid 2026.

What’s Getting Attached to Dhurandhar 2?
According to an exclusive report by PinkVilla, teasers for Raja Shivaji and Cocktail 2 will play in cinemas alongside Dhurandhar 2. It’s a savvy marketing move, using the massive hype around the Aditya Dhar directorial to build early buzz for Jio Studios’ next big bets.

Raja Shivaji — A Pan-India Marathi Epic
Raja Shivaji is arguably the most ambitious film Marathi cinema has ever attempted. Riteish Deshmukh wears both the director’s cap and the crown of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj — the legendary 17th-century Maratha warrior king who built a sovereign kingdom against all odds.
Produced simultaneously in Marathi and Hindi (with Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam dubs), it stars Abhishek Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, Vidya Balan, Fardeen Khan, Mahesh Manjrekar, and Genelia Deshmukh. Salman Khan is also reportedly making a guest appearance. This is a film built to travel across India.
