Kapoor and Basu come together to begin their production house Picture Shuru Productions
MUMBAI: After the success of the critically acclaimed ‘Barfi‘ which commercially too, raked in nearly Rs 120 crore worldwide, the successful ‘jodi‘ of Anurag Basu and Bollywood‘s youngest heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor have yet again come together. However it‘s not a movie we are referring to here, as the duo is going a step further in strengthening their ties by opening their own production house, ‘Picture Shuru Productions‘.
As reported by Desimartini, Ranbir and Anurag locked onto this name for their banner house from the lyrics of a song in ‘Barfi‘. Apparently they were hooked to the word, since they first heard the recording of the song.
Evidently, the movies to be produced under this new banner would see Ranbir Kapoor in the lead while Basu would be once again be seen behind the camera. Their very first venture too has been set, named ‘Jagga Jasoos‘, where the audience will see Ranbir playing the role of a sleuth, named Jagga. The movie is expected to go on floors by this year end.
Ranbir meanwhile remains busy with a series of movies lined up with Anurag Kashyup. He is currently shooting for Abhinav Kashyap‘s ‘Besharam‘ and will follow it up with ‘Bombay Velvet‘. Kapoor and Kashyup are also trying to finalise the details of the Kishore Kumar‘s biopic, which is one of the dream projects of Basu.

Dhurandhar returns to theatres worldwide on March 13 ahead of Dhurandhar The Revenge release
Jio Studios re-releases blockbuster across 500 screens globally before sequel
MUMBAI: The spy saga of Dhurandhar is gearing up for a big-screen encore before its next chapter arrives.
Ahead of the release of Dhurandhar The Revenge on March 19, Jio Studios and B62 Studios are bringing the original Dhurandhar back to cinemas worldwide in a rare international theatrical re-release.
The global blockbuster is returning across nearly 500 screens, including around 250 in India from March 12 and another 250 overseas beginning March 13.
For fans of the franchise, the move offers a chance to revisit the film that ignited the high-octane spy-action universe just days before the sequel lands in theatres. It also sets up a rare back-to-back big-screen experience, allowing audiences to relive the original before diving straight into the next chapter.
While re-releases of popular films are occasionally seen in India, international re-runs of Hindi films remain uncommon. The scale of the rollout reflects the growing global appetite for the franchise.
In North America alone, Dhurandhar will return to theatres across nearly 185 screens, highlighting the strong anticipation surrounding the upcoming sequel.
The excitement is set to build further with special Wednesday premiere shows of Dhurandhar The Revenge scheduled across the US and Canada on March 18, a day ahead of its global release. Many of these premieres will be hosted on premium large format screens, featuring wall-to-wall displays, immersive sound systems such as Dolby Atmos, enhanced projection and luxury seating.
These formats are typically reserved for major Hollywood event films, and early bookings suggest strong demand with several shows already sold out.
The recently released trailer of Dhurandhar The Revenge has also sparked buzz among exhibitors and trade circles, with expectations running high for the film’s international performance.
Dhurandhar The Revenge is written, directed and produced by Aditya Dhar. The film is produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Lokesh Dhar.
Jio Studios presents a B62 Studios production, an Aditya Dhar film.
The spy-action thriller will release worldwide on March 19, 2026, in five languages including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada.
The film arrives in theatres globally on the occasion of Gudi Padwa and Ugadi, just ahead of Eid, setting the stage for a festive box office run.
