The box office run of Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge continues to redefine commercial success in Indian cinema, with the Ranveer Singh-starrer inching closer to the ₹900 crore net mark in India within just 12 days of release. Despite a visible slowdown on its second Monday, the film remains firmly on course to join the elite ₹1,000 crore domestic club—an achievement attained by only a handful of films so far.
Day 12 Collection: Expected Dip, Strong Overall Hold
According to trade estimates, the film earned approximately ₹25.30 crore on Day 12, marking a steep drop of over 60% from its second Sunday collections.
This decline, typical for weekdays after a strong weekend surge, brings the film’s total India net collection to around ₹872 crore.
While the dip reflects a cooling phase, industry observers note that the film’s weekday performance remains significantly stronger than most recent releases.
Closing in on ₹900 Crore in India
With ₹872 crore already in the domestic market, Dhurandhar 2 is now just a short distance away from the ₹900 crore milestone. Trade analysts suggest that if weekday trends stabilise and weekend growth continues, the film could cross this mark within days.
Notably, the film has already surpassed the lifetime earnings of its predecessor (Dhurandhar, 2025) in less than two weeks, underlining its exceptional pace.
Global Box Office: ₹1,400 Crore Within Reach
Beyond India, the film’s global performance has been equally impressive. As of Day 12:
- Worldwide gross: ~₹1,392 crore
- India gross: ~₹1,040 crore
- Overseas earnings: ~₹350 crore
The film is now on the verge of entering the ₹1,400 crore worldwide club, placing it among the highest-grossing Indian films of all time.
Record-Breaking Run in Bollywood
Trade reports indicate that Dhurandhar 2 has already emerged as one of the highest-grossing Hindi films ever, outperforming several major releases in record time. Its rapid rise has drawn comparisons with previous blockbusters like:
- Jawan
- Pathaan
While final lifetime comparisons will depend on long-term trends, the current trajectory suggests that Dhurandhar 2 is firmly in contention to match or surpass these titles in domestic earnings.
Why the Film’s Performance Matters
The film’s success reflects several key industry trends:
- Strong theatrical revival: Sustained footfall indicates robust audience demand for big-screen spectacles.
- Franchise power: Sequels with established narratives are driving repeat viewership.
- Pan-India appeal: Earnings across languages and regions highlight widening audience reach.
Additionally, the film’s rapid climb toward ₹1,000 crore domestically signals a shift in the scale of Hindi cinema box office expectations.
Outlook: Can It Cross ₹1,000 Crore in India?
Despite the weekday drop, the film’s momentum remains intact. Trade analysts believe:
- A strong second weekend could push collections closer to ₹950 crore
- Sustained occupancy could help it cross ₹1,000 crore in India within its theatrical run
If achieved, Dhurandhar 2 would enter a rare league of films that have crossed the four-digit mark domestically—a milestone still uncommon in Bollywood.
Conclusion
Even with a Day 12 slowdown, Dhurandhar 2 continues to dominate the box office narrative. With ₹872 crore already secured in India and global earnings nearing ₹1,400 crore, the film stands as one of the biggest commercial successes of recent years.
Whether it ultimately surpasses benchmarks set by Jawan and Pathaan will depend on its staying power in the coming weeks—but its current trajectory has already cemented its place among modern blockbuster giants.
