Aditya Dhar revealed that the two-part 'Dhurandhar' franchise, starring Ranveer Singh, was made on a ₹255-crore budget, reported Bollywood Hungama. He explained that the film was eventually intended to be one part, but turned out to be an eight-hour saga split into two films. He said, "A scene that was meant to be for 10 seconds actually required two minutes."
