Ranveer Singh's new look in Aditya Dhar's upcoming spy action-thriller, Dhurandhar, has sparked intense speculation online. The actor’s portrayal of a rugged, intense character has led fans to wonder whether he is playing the real-life National Security Advisor Ajit Doval or perhaps a lesser-known, yet equally significant, Indian spy. While some social media users believe Singh is playing a young Doval, others point to the possibility of him portraying Major Mohit Sharma, a legendary Para SF officer involved in covert operations.

Singh's character is shown in the first look wearing a bearded, youthful appearance that bears a close resemblance to Major Mohit Sharma, who was posthumously awarded the Ashoka Chakra after his tragic death during a terrorist encounter in Jammu and Kashmir. Major Sharma was known for his undercover infiltration in Pakistan and played a crucial role in disrupting terror networks. The resemblance between Singh's look and Sharma's portrayal has fueled this theory. In the first look, Singh is seen in action, blowing up cars and engaging in violent combat with terrorists, implying that his character is on an espionage mission in enemy territory, much like Major Sharma's real-life mission.

Reddit users further speculate that the timeline of the movie may be set in the 2000s rather than the 1980s and 1990s, considering the technology and political references in the visuals. Despite initial speculation about the movie being set during Ajit Doval's espionage missions, the film’s backdrop and Singh’s portrayal appear to align more closely with Sharma’s covert missions during the early 2000s. While the official confirmation of Singh's character is still pending, fans remain divided, with some pointing out that the movie could be inspired by Doval’s missions, while others firmly believe it’s based on Sharma’s life.

Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar is a spy thriller based on real-life events, though the exact identity of the central character remains unclear. The film will explore espionage, danger, and undercover missions, with Ranveer Singh in the lead role. Joining Singh in pivotal roles are Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, and Arjun Rampal, who promise to bring intensity and excitement to the narrative. The film is set to release on December 5, 2025.

As the first look reveals Singh’s intense performance and the intrigue surrounding his role, audiences eagerly await further details about the spy thriller. The question remains: is Singh playing a real-life hero like Major Mohit Sharma or a more prominent figure like Ajit Doval? Fans will have to wait until the movie hits theaters to uncover the truth behind his character.
