Dhurandhar has now completed a remarkable 42-day run in theaters. Its box office performance continues to astonish everyone. The film consistently delivers massive numbers, securing its place among the biggest blockbusters in Indian cinema history.
A Strong Start and Historic Opening Weekend
The film began its theatrical journey with a powerful opening day. It collected ₹28 crore on Day 1. Momentum built quickly over the first weekend. On Day 2, Aditya Dhar's directorial venture earned ₹32 crore. Then, Day 3 saw a massive jump to ₹43 crore. This incredible performance resulted in an opening weekend total of nearly ₹103 crore. It set the stage for a truly historic run.
Steady Performance Through Week 1
Box office collections dipped on Day 4 due to the usual weekday slowdown. However, the film remained stable throughout the rest of the week. Strong audience interest helped it close Week 1 with an impressive total of ₹207.25 crore. What followed next, though, exceeded all expectations.
Week 2 Surpasses Week 1
Week 2 turned out to be even bigger than the first week. Akshaye Khanna's film experienced a sharp rise again over the weekend. Day 9 collected ₹53 crore while Day 10 peaked at ₹58 crore. By the end of its second week, Dhurandhar had added a staggering ₹253.25 crore to its total.
Sustained Success in Later Weeks
Week 3 contributed ₹172 crore, and Week 4 added ₹106.5 crore. Then, Week 5 brought in another ₹51.25 crore. This shows excellent long-term sustainability for the film.
Refusing to Slow Down in Week 6
Even in Week 6, Ranveer Singh's spy thriller refused to slow down. On Day 39, it earned ₹2.35 crore. Day 40 followed with ₹2.6 crore. Day 41 saw an increase again with ₹3 crore. Day 42 matched that figure with another ₹3 crore. This is an exceptional number for the sixth Thursday. So far, the film has recorded an India Net total of ₹816.6 crore.
Global Box Office Milestones
By Day 41, the India Gross stood at ₹976.35 crore. Overseas collections reached ₹293 crore. This took the worldwide total to ₹1,269.3 crore, according to Sacnilk. However, trade estimates suggest that by Day 42, Dhurandhar comfortably crossed the ₹1,300 crore mark globally.
Setting New Benchmarks on Day 42
Dhurandhar has been earning record-breaking numbers every single day. Day 42 was no exception. The film set a new benchmark for Day 42 collections. Earning ₹3 crore on its 42nd day, it stands far ahead of its peers. Such late-stage earnings indicate repeat audiences, sustained footfalls, and strong word of mouth across mass centers.
Comparing with Other Major Films
In second place is Chhaava, which collected ₹1.35 crore on Day 42. Its India net of ₹585.7 crore reflects strong domestic support. Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan and Maddock Films’ horror-comedy Stree 2 are tied closely. Both earned around ₹1.25 crore on their 42nd day. Pathaan went on to collect ₹1,055 crore worldwide. Stree 2 reached ₹857.15 crore globally.
