The box office juggernaut that is Dhurandhar shows absolutely no signs of stopping. Aditya Dhar's high-octane spy thriller, headlined by Ranveer Singh, continues to shatter records well into its fourth week, proving its phenomenal staying power with audiences across India and the globe.
Steadfast Collections: A Week-by-Week Breakdown
The film's journey began with a powerful opening, collecting ₹28 crore on its first Friday. It saw a steady upward trajectory over the opening weekend, minting ₹32 crore on Saturday and ₹43 crore on Sunday. While collections saw the expected dip on the first Monday, they held remarkably steady through the weekdays, allowing the film to wrap up its first week with an astounding ₹207.25 crore net collection in India.
Week 2 witnessed an even more impressive performance, fueled by spectacular weekend numbers of ₹32.5 crore, ₹53 crore, and ₹58 crore respectively. Despite the weekday slowdown, the second week closed at a towering ₹253.25 crore, marking a healthy 22.20% growth from the first week. The third week, while experiencing a natural decline, still posted a formidable ₹172 crore, showcasing the film's incredible consistency.
Day 24: Creating Bollywood History
On its 24th day in theatres, Dhurandhar added another ₹22.25 crore to its monumental tally, following a ₹20.5 crore haul on the previous Saturday. This Day 24 figure is not just strong; it is historic. Dhurandhar has recorded the highest Day 24 collection in Bollywood history, leaving other major films far behind. For comparison, Pushpa: The Rule - Part 2 earned ₹10 crore on its 24th day, while other top performers like URI: The Surgical Strike (₹8.92 crore) and Jawan (₹8.27 crore) trail significantly.
With these early estimates for Day 24, the film's total India net collection has soared to approximately ₹690.25 crore. The India gross collection had already crossed the prestigious ₹800 crore mark by Day 23.
The Global Conquest and The Road Ahead
The film's success is not confined to domestic shores. By Day 23, Dhurandhar had amassed ₹230 crore from the overseas market (with Day 24 numbers awaited). This contributes to a staggering worldwide collection of ₹1,058.25 crore, as per the most recent data. It now stands as a formidable force in the global arena, though it still trails behind Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan (₹1,160 crore) in worldwide box office collections.
Since Day 12, the Ranveer Singh-starrer has dominated the day-wise historical charts, securing the top position almost consistently. However, to claim the title of the top-grossing Hindi original movie of all time, it has a steep climb ahead. That crown is securely held by Aamir Khan's Dangal, which boasts a colossal worldwide total of ₹2,070.3 crore, largely due to its phenomenal performance in China.
The sustained momentum of Dhurandhar, defying the usual box office decay pattern, underscores its status as a true cultural phenomenon. It has not only set new benchmarks for day-wise collections but also cemented its place as one of the most successful Hindi films in recent history. The industry and fans alike are now watching keenly to see how close it can get to the all-time pinnacle.
