Read on for the box office report on Dhurandhar 2.

Earned Crores from Preview Shows

There was a significant demand for the paid preview shows of Dhurandhar 2. In several locations, late-night shows even had to be cancelled due to logistical issues. As for the earnings from these paid previews, Sacnilk reports that Dhurandhar: The Revenge (the film’s full title) raked in approximately ₹50 crore. Viewed in this light, Dhurandhar 2 had already banked ₹50 crore before its official release.

How ​​Much Did It Earn on Day One?

Speculation surrounding Dhurandhar 2 suggested that it would achieve a blockbuster collection on its opening day. Notably, the first film in the series, Dhurandhar, had collected ₹28 crore on its first day; consequently, Dhurandhar 2 faces the pressure to surpass that benchmark. According to Sacnilk, the early collection figures for Dhurandhar 2 stand at ₹7.14 crore. The film’s total collection for the day is expected to be confirmed by evening.

What is the Film’s Story?

The narrative of Dhurandhar 2 follows the espionage journey of Hamza—alias Jaskeerat Singh Rangi—as it unfolds amidst intense bloodshed and action. The film also reveals Hamza’s ultimate objective to the audience. Dhurandhar 2 finally lifts the veil on the mysterious character known as “Bade Saheb” (The Big Boss)—a revelation that is bound to leave many viewers stunned. In addition to Ranveer Singh, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, and Sara Arjun, a host of other talented actors have delivered stellar performances in their respective roles.

Other Films Crumble Before Dhurandhar 2

Even prior to the release of Dhurandhar 2, several other films currently running in theaters were already struggling to survive at the box office. Immediately upon its release, the box office collections of those films have dwindled to mere lakhs. On its 20th day of release—Wednesday—the film The Kerala Story 2 earned a mere ₹68 lakhs. In contrast, the film had collected ₹1.58 crores on Tuesday. Meanwhile, the collections for O Romeo have now ceased to be visible altogether; its run in theaters has come to an end.
