The release of Aditya Dhar’s spy thriller Dhurandhar 2 has sent shockwaves through the box office, but the biggest conversation surrounding the film isn't just about Ranveer Singh’s high-octane action. Instead, a massive "spoiler" involving veteran actor Rakesh Bedi’s character, Jameel Jamali, has taken social media by storm. Rakesh Bedi’s ‘Bacha Hai Tu Mera’ Funny Memes Go Viral As Ranveer Singh’s ‘Dhurandhar’ Wins Big at Global Box Office.
Fans and digital platforms like JioHotstar have highlighted a stunning narrative twist that reveals Jamali is not just a Karachi-based politician, but a deep-cover Indian spy who has been operating for over 40 years. This revelation has drawn immediate comparisons to a nostalgic piece of Bollywood history: Bedi’s iconic role as "Khabrilal" in the 1993 cult classic Tirangaa.
Jameel Jamali Was Once ‘Khabrilal’
For many viewers, the revelation that Jameel Jamali is an Indian asset felt like a spiritual homecoming for Rakesh Bedi. Long before he was navigating the political corridors of Karachi in Dhurandhar 2, Bedi played the role of Khabrilal in the 1993 blockbuster Tirangaa.
In Tirangaa, Khabrilal served as the quintessential informant (informer) for Brigadier Suryadev Singh (Raaj Kumar). Despite the film's larger-than-life tone, Bedi’s portrayal of a nervous yet loyal spy provided both comic relief and critical plot progression. Highlighting this "full circle" moment, fans have been circulating a specific scene shared by JioHotstar that bridges the gap between the bumbling 90s informant and the sophisticated, high-stakes operative seen in the new Ranveer Singh starrer.

The scene shared by JioHotstar captures an intense exchange between Khabrilal and DIG Rudrapratap Chauhan, played by Suresh Oberoi. In the original clip, Khabrilal is seen providing vital intelligence to the DIG, showcasing the character’s signature loyalty and frantic communication style.

By linking the film to Tirangaa, the makers have not only rewarded long-time fans but also added a layer of historical weight to the franchise. As the film moves toward further milestones, the legacy of "Khabrilal" ensures that Dhurandhar 2 will be remembered as more than just an action sequel, but as a bridge between two eras of Indian storytelling.
