Mustafa Ahmed, praised for playing Indian spy Rizwan in Dhurandhar, discussed his role in a Reddit AMA. He hinted Rizwan may continue Hamza’s mission and joked about running Pakistan better than its politicians. Ahmed also shared his experience with Ranveer Singh and expressed interest in diverse acting roles beyond action.

Mustafa Ahmed, who transitioned from fitness training to acting, is widely appreciated for playing Rizwan, an Indian spy stationed in Pakistan, in Aditya Dhar’s ‘Dhurandhar’ films. The character operates undercover within the Lyari gangs and assists Ranveer Singh’s Hamza in bringing down the Baloch gang while dismantling Pakistan’s terror network from within. The actor recently held an interactive AMA (Ask Me Anything) session on Reddit, where he spoke about his career path, the film ‘Dhurandhar’, and his role as Rizwan.

Mustafa Ahmed on Rizwan’s future after Hamza’s exit

In ‘Dhurandhar 2’, Rizwan emerges as Hamza’s closest ally after Hamza becomes the ‘king of Lyari’. However, things take a turn when Hamza’s cover is blown, forcing him to return to India and leaving Rizwan behind. This development has led to widespread speculation about Rizwan’s next move without his trusted companion. Addressing this during a Reddit AMA session, Mustafa said, “I would imagine that Rizwan would take over where Hamza left. No one knows of his identity and he already is placed himself in a very strong position to keep eliminating those who are left to be dealt with. He sure is capable to keep going.”

Mustafa Ahmed reacts to fan theories about Rizwan and Jameel Jamali

Speculation among fans has linked Rizwan with Jameel Jamali (played by Rakesh Bedi), another Indian operative embedded in Pakistan’s political landscape, and Mustafa appeared to hint at the possibility while making a cheeky remark about the country’s politics. When asked by a fan, “Are you the next King of Lyari now that Hamza is gone?” Mustafa replied, “Absolutely. Jameel Saab and me can take over Pakistan. And actually run it better than their politicians for their own good.”

Mustafa Ahmed on working with Ranveer Singh and future roles

In the AMA session, Mustafa spoke about his experience working with Ranveer and said, “It’s not easy to work with him. He demands nothing but the best because he gives you nothing but his best. He really helped me a lot to create Rizwan and ensured I always felt like his equal. That, for me, is something I will remember forever.” Before stepping into acting with Dhurandhar, Mustafa worked as a fitness trainer for celebrities like Ranveer Singh, Hrithik Roshan, and Vicky Kaushal. Talking about his future in acting, he shared that he is willing to explore more opportunities if offered meaningful roles. “I am open to good roles that showcase not just my physique but also emotions. But action, of course, is my first love. Comedy would be nice. Playing a West Delhi guy or jaat. will be super fun,” he added.
