In Short

  • An old Rakesh Bedi clip from Qubool Hai has gone viral
  • Bedi played a brief role in the show, starring Karan Singh Grover and Subrhi Jyoti
  • The video has resurfaced amid the massive success of Dhurandhar: The Revenge

Amid the massive success of Dhurandhar: The Revenge, an old video of Rakesh Bedi has gone viral on social media, and for good reason. The clip is from Qubool Hai, the popular Zee TV show that aired over a decade ago. Nearly 12 years old, the video features Bedi in a brief but memorable role. The series starred Karan Singh Grover and Surbhi Jyoti, with Bedi appearing as an official determined to deport Jyoti's character, Zoya Farooqui.

His character was quirky, sharp, and deeply by-the-book -- traits that fit perfectly within Bedi's comic resume. He appeared in a handful of episodes leading up to Asad and Zoya's fake engagement track.

In one particular scene, Bedi's character introduces himself as Dhurandhar Watavdekar, an upright, rule-abiding officer who would go to any lengths to protect his country. That moment has now resurfaced online, striking a chord with viewers who have watched Dhurandhar: The Revenge and recognise the weight the name carries in the film.

Often dubbed Dhurandhar 2 by fans, the film has emerged as a full-blown Bollywood juggernaut. Headlined by Ranveer Singh, it has already crossed the Rs 200 crore mark within two days, including paid previews. Beyond its box office numbers, the film has sparked widespread conversation among cinema lovers.

Written, directed and produced by Aditya Dhar, the film also stars R Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, Rakesh Bedi, and Sara Arjun in key roles. It is the story of an Indian spy infiltrating Pakistan's criminal-terror networks, decimating them one by one.
