Composer Shashwat Sachdev didn’t score two films. He scored one.

When Sachdev sat down to work on the “Dhurandhar” films, there was no duology to speak of – just one sprawling script, one protagonist, one emotional arc. By the time the filmmakers decided during post-production to split the material into two releases, the music had already been built to travel the full distance. It shows. With “Dhurandhar: The Revenge” becoming one of the biggest Indian box office hits of all time and the tracks “Aari Aari,” “Jaiye Sajna” and “Jaan Se Guzarte Hai” charting on Spotify India, Sachdev’s score is pulling its full weight on both sides of the screen.
