Dhurandhar success made Ravi Kishan’s 2013 Bhojpuri film viral: ‘Producers became crorepati’ 

“Yes, I do know. Mere zindagi mein aise dhoom dhadake hote hai! (Such explosive things happen in my life!),” he said.

Drawing a contrast between the two films, Ravi noted that while Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar is a large-scale espionage thriller, Dhurandhar: The Shooter was a modest regional action film made on a much smaller budget.

“Now, while trying to watch and track the new Dhurandhar, people ended up watching my version too,” he said with a laugh.

The actor also joked about the film’s newfound commercial value. “Its producers and its right holders have suddenly become crorepatis now!” he quipped, thanking audiences for the unexpected attention.

Meanwhile, the two-part Dhurandhar franchise, directed by Aditya Dhar and headlined by Ranveer Singh, has emerged as one of Indian cinema’s biggest box-office success stories with the two parts earning over Rs 3100 crore.

Dhurandhar franchise earned over Rs 3000 crore at the box office.

Ravi Kishan will next be seen in Dhamaal 4, alongside Ajay Devgn, Arshad Warsi, Riteish Deshmukh, Jaaved Jaaferi, Sanjay Mishra, Esha Gupta, Sanjeeda Shaikh and Upendra Limaye. Directed by Indra Kumar, the comedy adventure is scheduled to release in theatres on July 10, 2026.
