'Dhurandhar 2' daily collection drops to ₹1cr; earns ₹1,782cr worldwide

The espionage thriller Dhurandhar: The Revenge, directed by Aditya Dhar and starring Ranveer Singh, has completed its 42nd day in theaters. It managed to earn only ₹1cr on Wednesday in India. The film is currently the third-highest-grossing Indian film ever and is on a record-breaking spree, chasing two records: the global gross of Baahubali 2 and the domestic haul of Pushpa 2. Record chase 'Dhurandhar 2' is just behind 'Baahubali 2: The Conclusion', released in 2017, which has a global gross of ₹1,788.06cr—a nine-year-old record for the second-highest-grossing Indian film globally. Dhurandhar 2 is currently at ₹1,782.15cr (as per Sacnilk), just a little behind. With its current daily collection of ₹1-1.5cr (combined domestic and overseas), the record could be broken this week. Domestic record: Will it break 'Pushpa 2's record? Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2: The Rule holds the domestic net record at ₹1,234.1cr. With Dhurandhar 2 currently at ₹1,133.94cr India net, this gap is also not unachievable. The seventh weekend will be crucial in determining how close Dhurandhar 2 can get to this all-time domestic crown before its theatrical run ends. Record-breaking debut: Dhurandhar 2 broke all first-week records by the end of Week 1 with ₹674.17cr. Week 2 added ₹263.65cr, surpassing the lifetime collection of the original film (2025), which was ₹840.2cr. Week 3 made it the first Hindi film to enter the elite ₹1,000cr net club in India. Sustained success: Even in its second month, Dhurandhar 2 crossed the ₹1,100cr mark on Day 29. On Day 41, it defied the typical weekday slump with a 28.6% growth, netting ₹1.35cr across 2,925 shows, bringing its total domestic net to ₹1,132.99cr and gross to ₹1,356.07cr. Global success: On the global front, Dhurandhar 2 added another ₹0.25cr from international markets, taking its worldwide gross collection to a staggering ₹1,780.82cr. As of Day 42, it continues its theatrical run with 2,447 shows and has already netted ₹1cr today, pushing its domestic totals to a net of ₹1,133.94cr and gross of ₹1,357.2cr. Legal issues: The film faced a copyright infringement case over the song 'Oye Oye' due to concerns over proper rights acquisition. The film runs for 229 minutes and stars Ranveer Singh in a career-defining role as Jaskirat Singh Rangi, an R&AW operative living undercover in Karachi's Lyari. It also features Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, and R Madhavan.
