Dhurandhar roars at the box office, races towards Rs 1000 crore milestone

After Chhaava set the box office on fire earlier this year, Dhurandhar has emerged as the perfect year-ender, reaffirming Bollywood’s ability to pull massive crowds into theaters while dominating pop culture conversations at the same time.

The Ranveer Singh-starrer has delivered a phenomenal run at the global box office, collecting a staggering Rs 944 crore worldwide in just 20 days. What makes the film’s performance even more remarkable is its sustained momentum well into its third week. On its 21st day, Dhurandhar witnessed footfalls that reportedly surpassed its opening day, with early estimates placing the day’s earnings at around Rs 26 crore, only slightly below its opening day figure of Rs 28 crore.

On the domestic front, the film has already crossed Rs 633.5 crore, cementing its status as one of the biggest Hindi releases of the year. Internationally, Dhurandhar continues to perform exceptionally well, pushing its worldwide total to within touching distance of the coveted Rs 1000 crore club.

Trade analysts attribute the film’s extraordinary run to a powerful combination of Ranveer Singh’s commanding performance, strong word-of-mouth and repeat viewership, along with the absence of major competing releases. The film’s ability to draw crowds even after three weeks highlights its broad appeal across age groups and regions.

With its global tally just inches away from the four-figure mark, Dhurandhar is poised to join the elite league of Bollywood’s highest-grossing films. As the year draws to a close, the film stands as a resounding statement that Hindi cinema still has the power to deliver blockbusters on a truly massive scale.
