The year 2025 ended with a cinematic bang, and the fireworks are still going strong in 2026, courtesy of Ranveer Singh's blockbuster spy thriller, 'Dhurandhar'. The film, directed by Aditya Dhar, has not just dominated the Indian box office but has rewritten its rulebook, maintaining an iron grip on audiences well into its fourth week.
Unstoppable Box Office Momentum
According to early estimates from industry tracker Sacnilk, 'Dhurandhar' added approximately ₹10.50 crore to its kitty on its fourth Wednesday, which was its 27th day in theatres. This remarkable feat of pulling in double-digit crores so deep into its run is unprecedented for a Hindi film. The previous record was held by 'Pushpa: The Rule – Part 2', which managed double-digit daily earnings for 21 days in the Hindi market.
The film's weekly collections paint a picture of a historic performance:
- Week 1: An estimated ₹207.25 crore.
- Week 2: An even more impressive ₹253.25 crore.
- Week 3: A strong hold with ₹172 crore.
- Week 4 (so far): With Wednesday's earnings, the fourth-week total stands at an estimated ₹90.25 crore.
This brings the film's total India net collection to a staggering ₹722.75 crore. When considering gross collections, the India figure climbs to an impressive ₹867.3 crore.
Conquering Global Markets
'Dhurandhar's' success story is not confined to Indian shores. The film has resonated powerfully with the international audience, earning an estimated ₹246 crore from overseas markets. This phenomenal performance across territories pushes its worldwide box office total to a monumental ₹1,113.3 crore, firmly establishing it as the highest-grossing Hindi film of all time.
On the Cusp of a Never-Before-Seen Feat
The most exciting prospect for 'Dhurandhar' currently is its potential to achieve a milestone that no Bollywood film has ever touched. If the film manages to secure another double-digit collection on Thursday, it will cross the ₹100 crore mark in its fourth week alone. This would shatter the existing record for the highest fourth-week collection, which is currently held by 'Pushpa: The Rule – Part 2' with ₹53.75 crore.
The audience's unwavering interest is evident in the occupancy reports. On Wednesday, the film recorded an overall Hindi occupancy of 22.72%. While morning shows saw 14.42% occupancy, the evening shows witnessed the highest footfalls at 25.48%, proving that the film remains a prime choice for night-out entertainment.
From its explosive December release to its sustained dominance in the new year, 'Dhurandhar' has cemented its place in Bollywood history. Its journey is a testament to the power of a high-octane spy thriller backed by a powerhouse performance and visionary direction, proving that audiences are always ready for grand-scale cinematic spectacles.
