Dhurandhar: The Revenge has opened to phenomenal numbers at the Indian box office, delivering one of the biggest starts in Bollywood history.
The Ranveer Singh starrer is expected to collect ₹70 to ₹75 crore nett on Day 1, despite releasing on a non-holiday Thursday.
Adding the ₹39 crore nett from paid previews, the film’s total domestic opening stands at over ₹110 crore nett, surpassing the previous Bollywood record held by Jawan.
Dhurandhar The Revenge Box Office Collection Day 1: Biggest Opening In Indian Cinema Worldwide
On the global front, early estimates suggest an even more staggering performance.
Dhurandhar 2 is reportedly eyeing around ₹240 crore worldwide on Day 1, making it one of the biggest openings in Indian cinema history.
What makes this figure even more notable is that these numbers come without contributions from Gulf markets, which typically boost overseas collections for big-ticket releases.
The benchmark for global openings remains Pushpa 2, which crossed ₹275 crore on its first day. However, Dhurandhar 2 is already in the same league and could have gone even higher with a full international rollout.
Strong Performance Across Key Regions
The film has recorded outstanding collections in circuits like Mumbai, Delhi-UP, East Punjab, and South India, with metro cities leading the surge.
Bengaluru has emerged as a major hotspot, contributing significantly to the opening day numbers. The strong response across urban centres highlights the film’s mass appeal.
Massive Scale And Advance Momentum
Despite its nearly four-hour runtime, the film has seen no slowdown in occupancy.
It is running across over 21,000 shows nationwide, with several centres allocating exclusive screens.
High ticket pricing and strong advance bookings have further boosted collections, ensuring a powerful start.
Weekend Projections And Box Office Trajectory
With strong momentum already in place, the film is expected to remain steady on Friday and grow further over the weekend, especially with the Eid holiday driving footfall.
Early trade projections suggest:
₹325 crore nett minimum over extended weekend
Potential to reach ₹350 to ₹375 crore nett
Looking at current trends, the film could even target ₹600 crore within its first four days and aim for the ₹1000 crore mark within 8 to 9 days, if momentum sustains.
A Box Office Phenomenon
With record-breaking openings both in India and globally, Dhurandhar: The Revenge has positioned itself as more than just a film.
It is shaping up to be a major box office event driven by the combined force of Ranveer Singh and director Aditya Dhar.
All eyes are now on how far this momentum can go as the film continues its historic run.
