Dhurandhar Box Office Collection: A Blockbuster
Dhurandhar—directed by Aditya Dhar and starring Ranveer Singh in the lead—emerged as one of the biggest cinematic sensations of recent years. This Hindi-language spy action thriller, featuring an ensemble cast including Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, and Arjun Rampal, received an A certificate and quickly captivated audiences with its intense plot, high-octane action sequences, and powerful performances.
The film shattered expectations at the box office from the outset. It opened with a solid ₹28.60 crore net on day one in India, building momentum over the weekend to reach ₹106.50 crore by the end of the opening weekend. Week one collections stood at ₹218 crore, and the momentum continued, crossing the ₹500 crore net mark domestically in just 15 days—a remarkable feat for a Bollywood film.
Dhurandhar became the highest-grossing Hindi film of all time in India, surpassing previous benchmarks. It concluded its theatrical run with an impressive ₹894.49 crore net (approximately ₹1,002–1,057 crore gross) in the domestic market. Overseas markets contributed significantly, adding around ₹299 crore gross, pushing the worldwide total to ₹1,350–1,355 crore (estimates vary slightly across sources like Sacnilk, Bollywood Hungama, and Koimoi, with some placing it at ₹1,307–1,354 crore gross).
Made on a reported budget of ₹225 crore, the film delivered exceptional returns, achieving an ROI of over 297% and ranking among the most profitable Hindi films post-pandemic. It also recorded massive footfalls of 3.6 crore in India, making it one of the most-watched Bollywood releases in recent times.
The spy thriller broke numerous records: it became the highest-grossing A-rated Indian film, the second-highest grossing Hindi film worldwide (trailing only Dangal), and the highest-grossing Indian film of 2025. Its success in North America ($20.65 million) further solidified its global appeal.
The monumental run paved the way for the sequel, Dhurandhar: The Revenge (released March 2026), which continued the franchise’s dominance with historic openings. Dhurandhar stands as a landmark in Bollywood, proving star power, gripping storytelling, and strong execution can drive unprecedented box office glory.
