In a historic achievement for Bollywood, Ranveer Singh's latest cinematic offering, 'Dhurandhar', has been declared a monumental milestone by its producers, Yash Raj Films (YRF). The studio's official social media tribute confirms the film's staggering commercial success, which has now eclipsed a major industry benchmark.
A Box Office Juggernaut
The most compelling fact from YRF's announcement is the film's phenomenal financial performance. By the end of its fifth week in theatres, 'Dhurandhar' has amassed a total domestic collection of Rs 831.40 crore. This figure is not just impressive on its own; it represents a crucial crossover. Reports indicate that with this sum, the film has now officially exceeded the lifetime box office business of the much-anticipated 'Pushpa 2: The Rule'. This positions 'Dhurandhar' as one of the highest-grossing Indian films of recent times.
Studio's Historic Tribute
Yash Raj Films, one of the most prestigious banners in Indian cinema, took to the platform X (formerly Twitter) on January 7, 2026, to celebrate the feat. In a post that has since gone viral, the studio did not merely call it a successful film but hailed it as a "milestone." The tribute, shared at 11:14 IST, underscores the project's significance within YRF's own storied legacy and for the wider industry. The film is directed by Aditya Dhar, adding to his reputation after the groundbreaking success of 'Uri: The Surgical Strike'.
Implications for Bollywood
This achievement signals a powerful shift in box office dynamics. Surpassing a heavyweight like 'Pushpa 2' sets a new commercial high note for 2025-2026. It reaffirms Ranveer Singh's star power and the potent combination of his energy with Aditya Dhar's directorial vision under the YRF banner. The film's sustained performance over five weeks demonstrates strong audience word-of-mouth and repeat viewings, factors crucial for reaching such astronomical figures.
The success of 'Dhurandhar' is likely to influence future project greenlights and budget allocations within the industry, proving the viability of large-scale, high-concept productions anchored by a magnetic performer. As the collections continue, all eyes will be on whether 'Dhurandhar' can breach the coveted Rs 1000 crore mark, carving its name even deeper into Bollywood history.
