After Dhurandhar’s Massive Success, Ranveer Singh Spends Quality Time With Daughter Dua Ahead of Sequel

As Dhurandhar continues its historic run at the box office, Ranveer Singh is embracing a quieter, deeply personal phase of his life. Fresh off delivering one of the biggest blockbusters in Indian cinema, the actor welcomed the New Year in New York with wife Deepika Padukone and their daughter Dua, choosing family time over immediately jumping into his next professional commitment.

Photos and videos from the couple’s New York getaway recently surfaced online, capturing Ranveer and Deepika in a rare moment of calm and togetherness. The images reflected not just professional triumph but emotional fulfilment, with the couple celebrating the unprecedented success of Dhurandhar alongside their families — and especially their daughter.

Ranveer made quick trips home during Dhurandhar shoots

According to an industry insider, Ranveer remained hands-on as a father even during the film’s hectic shooting schedule. “New Year’s was special as it always is, but this year was even more meaningful. Earlier, Ranveer was extremely busy with Dhurandhar. Despite that, he made sure he was a doting father and husband, travelling back home even if it was only for a few hours between shoots,” the source shared.

The insider added that post the film’s massive success, Ranveer has been dedicating all his time to his daughter. “Beti ke aane se naseeb badal jaata hai. Dua has brought good luck to him — his lakshmi. He is making the most of this time with her before he begins work on Dhurandhar 2. A daughter truly is a blessing, and this is a beautiful example of that.”

A historic box office run

Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar has rewritten box office records, emerging as the highest-grossing Hindi film of all time in India. The film has collected approximately ₹840.85 crore nett domestically in just over a month, surpassing Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan. Globally, Dhurandhar has crossed ₹1,200 crore, placing it among the top five highest-grossing Indian films worldwide.

The action thriller stars Ranveer in the role of Hamza and features an ensemble cast including Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, R Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sara Arjun and others. The film’s success has firmly cemented Ranveer’s position as one of Bollywood’s most bankable stars.

All eyes on Dhurandhar 2

With the first film redefining box office benchmarks, anticipation has already shifted to Dhurandhar 2. The sequel is expected to explore the emotional journeys of Hamza and Jaskirat in greater depth, with higher stakes and more layered storytelling. Industry buzz suggests the second installment will be more character-driven while retaining the scale and intensity that defined the original.

A fulfilling personal chapter

Ranveer and Deepika welcomed their daughter Dua on September 8, 2024. The couple consciously kept her away from the public eye for months before revealing her face on Diwali last year. Since then, Ranveer has frequently spoken — through actions rather than words — about embracing fatherhood during this defining phase of his career.

Besides Dhurandhar 2, Ranveer will next be seen in Pralay. Deepika Padukone, meanwhile, has King with Shah Rukh Khan slated for a 2026 release, along with an untitled project directed by Atlee and starring Allu Arjun.

As Ranveer Singh gears up for the next chapter of the *Dhurandhar* franchise, the rare convergence of record-breaking professional success and profound personal joy makes his journey ahead all the more powerful — both on screen and off it.
