Before the latest box office update, expectations for Dhurandhar 2 were already high following its impressive opening week. The film had debuted with a staggering ₹102 crore on its first day and collected ₹43 crore from paid previews, setting the stage for a strong performance.
However, the decisive moment came on day 8 when Dhurandhar 2 collected ₹30.06 crore, bringing its total domestic net collection to approximately ₹654.03 crore. This surge not only marked a significant milestone for the film but also indicated its sustained popularity among audiences.
The film’s total India gross collection now stands at ₹748.52 crore, and it has crossed the ₹1,000 crore mark globally with a total worldwide gross collection of ₹1,006.50 crore. This achievement is particularly noteworthy as it surpasses the domestic lifetime collections of previous hits like Stree 2 and Chhaava.
Despite a notable drop in the number of shows—from 20,352 on Wednesday to just 4,452 on day 8, a reduction of 78%—the film managed to maintain a commendable occupancy rate of about 16.7% across theatres. This indicates that while the number of screenings decreased, the interest in the film remained strong.
In the early hours of day 8, Dhurandhar 2 minted ₹3.34 crore, showcasing its ability to draw audiences even in a competitive market. Industry expert Taran Adarsh highlighted that the film has also crossed the ₹250 crore mark in overseas markets, further solidifying its status as a global success.
As Dhurandhar 2 enters its second week, it continues to demonstrate resilience at the box office, driven by positive word-of-mouth and a strong fan base. The film’s journey thus far reflects a powerful opening week and a promising trajectory moving forward.
With its remarkable achievements, Dhurandhar 2 not only sets new benchmarks for box office collections but also reaffirms the audience’s appetite for compelling storytelling and engaging cinema.
