Ajay Devgn and Sanjay Dutt to Share Screen in First-Ever Action Thriller, Luv Films Announces Packed Slate
Luv Ranjan’s Luv Films is poised for a period of significant output, kicking off with the anticipated sequel, Vadh 2, slated for release in 2026. The follow-up will once again feature the acclaimed duo of Sanjay Mishra and Neena Gupta, building on the success of the 2022 original. However, it’s a forthcoming action spectacle, starring Bollywood heavyweights Ajay Devgn, Sanjay Dutt, and Tamannaah Bhatia, that is currently generating the most buzz. Ranjan recently provided exclusive insights into the project during an interview.
Speculation surrounding the film’s title has centered on “Ranger,” a suggestion Ranjan addressed with characteristic candor. “Ranger is a tentative title,” he explained. “As usual, we are trying to figure out the correct title (laughs). The release is 11 months away. So, hopefully, by then, we’ll be able to find one.”
The release date, previously reported exclusively by Bollywood Hungama, was confirmed by Ranjan: December 4th. This marks a significant moment for fans of both Devgn and Dutt, as it will be the first time the two veteran actors have headlined an action film together.
A Historic Pairing: Devgn and Dutt in Uncharted Territory
Despite a collaborative history spanning 25 years, featuring appearances in films like Mehbooba (2008), Hum Kisise Kum Nahin (2002), All The Best (2009), Rascals (2011), Son Of Sardaar (2012), and even cameo roles in Ready (2011) and Raju Chacha (2000), Ajay Devgn and Sanjay Dutt have never before shared the spotlight in a dedicated action vehicle. While both actors have individually starred in numerous action-oriented projects – including LOC Kargil (2003), Tango Charlie (2005), and Bhuj: The Pride Of India (2021) – their paths never converged within the genre. This upcoming Luv Films production will therefore represent a truly novel cinematic experience for audiences.
Ranjan emphasized the excitement surrounding this unique pairing. “Ajay sir and Sanju sir have worked together so many times in these 25 years. Yet, they have never done an action film together. It is very shocking. It is extremely exciting that we’ll get to see them in an action film for the first time.”
Beyond the Devgn-Dutt collaboration, Luv Films is also gearing up for Cocktail 2, a project spearheaded in partnership with Dinesh Vijan. The sequel will feature Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna, and is being directed by Homi Adajania. Ranjan offered a brief update, stating, “I am producing it with Dino (Dinesh Vijan). It is shaping up great. Homi Adajania is a superb director.”
Did You Know?: Ajay Devgn and Sanjay Dutt have appeared in a combined total of over 40 films, but this upcoming Luv Films project will be their first dedicated action collaboration.
What challenges do you foresee in blending the established styles of Devgn and Dutt within the action genre? And how do you think the addition of Tamannaah Bhatia will impact the film’s dynamic?
