Ranveer Singh-starrer Dhurandhar continues its extraordinary box-office run, showing no signs of slowing down even in its fourth week. On Tuesday, the spy action thriller performed better than Monday, once again avoiding a single-digit daily collection.
Day 26 collections
According to Sacnilk.com, Aditya Dhar’s directorial earned ₹11.25 crore on Tuesday (early estimates). This comes after a strong fourth weekend, with the film collecting ₹20 crore on Saturday and ₹22.5 crore on Sunday. Monday saw a predictable dip to ₹10.5 crore, making Tuesday’s jump particularly noteworthy.
With the latest numbers added, Dhurandhar’s India nett collection now stands at approximately ₹712 crore.
On Monday, the film created history by becoming the first Bollywood film to cross ₹700 crore in domestic nett collections.
Worldwide performance
The film is performing exceptionally well overseas too. By Day 25, Dhurandhar had amassed ₹1,081 crore worldwide. Over the weekend, it surpassed Kalki 2898 AD and Pathaan to become the seventh highest-grossing Indian film of all time.
Its next target is the sixth position, currently held by Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan, which earned ₹1,160 crore globally in 2023. If the momentum continues, Dhurandhar could cross that mark by Friday or Saturday. Its fifth-weekend performance will be crucial in determining whether it can challenge KGF: Chapter 2 (₹1,215 crore) and RRR (₹1,230 crore).
About the film
Produced by Aditya Dhar and Lokesh Dhar under B62 Studios, in association with Jio Studios’ Jyoti Deshpande, Dhurandhar explores an underworld saga involving criminals, informants and covert operatives entangled in espionage, betrayals and high-stakes intelligence missions.
The makers have already announced Dhurandhar 2, which is slated to release in theatres on March 19.
Industry praise
The film has also received glowing praise from the industry. Filmmaker Karan Johar, speaking at the book launch of Dining With Stars by Anupama Chopra, said he ended the year loving Dhurandhar.
“I was blown away by Dhurandhar. The use of background music, the storytelling—it made me feel how limited my craft is,” Johar said. “What I loved most was that the director wasn’t trying to show off. He was just seamlessly telling the story.”
