10 films to explore after Dhurandhar, led by the packet’s closest matches
For readers drawn to Dhurandhar’s undercover rise through Karachi’s underworld and its ISI–underworld nexus, this shortlist stays within the research packet’s shared-genre and release-proximity lane while marking where the evidence stops.
Dhurandhar follows a mysterious traveller who enters Karachi’s underbelly, rises through its ranks with lethal precision and works to dismantle the ISI–Underworld nexus from within. It is a 2025 Hindi film directed and written by Aditya Dhar, with Ranveer Singh, Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal and Sanjay Dutt among its credited cast. Those are the concrete qualities this page uses as the reference point: a covert rise, an underworld setting and a substantial ensemble around a high-stakes conflict.
The research packet does not provide full synopses, cast lists, language records or tone descriptors for the recommendation candidates. It does, however, place all ten in the same two evidence-backed dimensions: release proximity and shared genre. So this is a disciplined shortlist rather than a claim that any title recreates Dhurandhar’s plot, characters or specific geopolitical setting. Each entry states that limit clearly and preserves the candidate’s own identity.
Grouped recommendations
The films below are arranged as one recent shared-genre lane. The order is editorial rather than a claim that one title has a stronger rating, larger audience or better availability. Where the packet supplies no title-specific story or performance information, the recommendation remains deliberately narrow: this is a reason to investigate the title, not permission to assign it an unverified premise.
How the shortlist was chosen
The seed record supports a specific reference profile: Dhurandhar is a 2025 Hindi movie about a mysterious traveller moving through Karachi’s underworld and attempting to break an ISI–Underworld nexus from within. Its credited cast includes Ranveer Singh as Hamza Ali Mazari / Jaskirat Singh Rangi, Akshaye Khanna as Rehman Dakait, R. Madhavan as Ajay Sanyal, Arjun Rampal as Major Iqbal and Sanjay Dutt as SP Chaudhary Aslam. The candidate records do not mirror that level of detail. Their common evidence is narrower and consistent: release proximity and shared genre.
The most reliable takeaway is precise rather than expansive: these ten films share the packet’s release-proximity and genre signals with Dhurandhar, but the research does not establish matching plots, performances, languages or settings. Begin with the title whose broad lane interests you, and let the rendered facts and each film’s own identity do the rest.
