Dhurandhar has extended its remarkable theatrical run into a fourth week, crossing the Rs 1,100 crore mark worldwide after 26 days in cinemas. The Ranveer Singh starrer recorded robust daily earnings in India, sustained by a New Year’s Eve holiday surge and steady weekday takings that kept domestic daily collections above Rs 10 crore net.
Dhurandhar box office figures
After 26 days the film has amassed Rs 712.25 crore net in India, with an Indian gross of Rs 854.5 crore. The Monday milestone when Dhurandhar became the first mainstream Bollywood film to top Rs 700 crore net domestically drew widespread attention, and Tuesday’s holiday boost helped push totals higher. Overseas, the picture has performed strongly, especially in North America where it has earned $17 million in the United States and Canada. Total international receipts stand at $27.5 million, bringing combined worldwide collections to approximately Rs 1,101 crore.
Box office analysts note that the film has overtaken several high-profile releases in select markets, surpassing the lifetime North American earnings of titles such as Jawan and RRR. Its global trajectory now places Dhurandhar among the seven highest-grossing Indian films of all time and within striking distance of Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan, which finished at Rs 1,160 crore worldwide.
Closing the gap on all-time blockbusters
At the current pace Dhurandhar could move past Jawan within days and present a challenge to the lifetime totals of pan-Indian giants KGF Chapter 2 and RRR, which stand at Rs 1,215 crore and Rs 1,250 crore respectively. Industry insiders point to strong overseas openings, sustained word of mouth in domestic circuits, and strategic holiday windows as the key drivers of the film’s continued strength.
The film’s commercial success also reflects a wider appetite for high-production Indian thrillers in international markets. Its fourth place ranking among Indian releases in North America underscores the expanding reach of Hindi-language cinema outside traditional diasporic audiences.
About the film and what comes next
Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar follows Ranveer Singh as Hamza, an Indian operative working to infiltrate terror networks in Karachi. The cast includes Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt and R Madhavan in key roles. The soundtrack has aided the film’s visibility, with a song by Akshaye Khanna charting on global streaming platforms and attracting viral attention.
Producers have already scheduled a sequel for March 2026, signalling confidence in the franchise’s long-term potential. For now the focus will be on sustaining box office momentum through weekday grosses and maintaining overseas runs, as the film seeks to climb further up all-time charts.
Whether Dhurandhar ultimately reaches the top five of India’s highest grossers will depend on its performance over the coming weeks. Given its present trajectory, producers and exhibitors are increasingly optimistic that the film will add several more high-visibility milestones to its tally before it exits theatres.
