The promotional campaign for Ranveer Singh's upcoming film Dhurandhar is set to intensify with the digital release of a new version of the song "Jogi" on October 15, 2025. This release aims to build anticipation for the film, which is slated to hit theaters on December 5, 2025.
The "Jogi" track is not entirely new to audiences following the film's progress. A version of the song was previously featured in the first look of Dhurandhar. The upcoming release, however, promises a fresh take on the song, described as a "recreated version" that is more fast-paced with visuals cut to match the energy. According to a source quoted by Bollywood Hungama, this new promo will not include any dialogue, keeping with the approach of revealing the film bit by bit. The goal is to capitalize on the buzz generated by the initial glimpse while maintaining an air of mystery around the film's plot.
The release of the "Jogi" song promo also serves a strategic purpose: to dispel rumors about potential delays in the film's release. By prominently featuring the December 5 release date, the producers aim to reassure audiences that Dhurandhar is on track.
Dhurandhar is directed by Aditya Dhar, known for his work on Uri: The Surgical Strike. The film boasts an ensemble cast including Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, R Madhavan, and Arjun Rampal, alongside Sara Arjun and Rakesh Bedi. The film is produced by Jio Studios and B62 Studios.
The narrative of Dhurandhar centers on a covert agent navigating a high-stakes intelligence operation. Set against a backdrop of political conspiracies and national security threats, the film is expected to deliver a blend of action and drama.
The song "Jogi" itself has an interesting backstory. The song is originally "Na De Dil Pardesi Nu,” which was recorded by Mohammad Sadiq & Ranjit Kaur in 1995. It was later remixed by Panjabi MC as "Jogi" in 2003.
In addition to its digital release, there are reports that the "Jogi" promo will also be played in cinemas alongside major Diwali releases, though details on this are still emerging.
