Ranveer Singh’s film "Dhurandhar: The Revenge" has crossed Rs 919 crore at the global box office within its first week, positioning it to soon breach the Rs 1,000 crore mark, according to multiple reports from Times of India. The espionage thriller, directed by Aditya Dhar, set a record with a strong opening weekend fueled by positive word-of-mouth and festival season boosts.
The film opened to exceptional numbers, collecting Rs 761 crore (approximately $82.4 million) globally in its first weekend, marking the highest opening ever for a Hindi-language film, as reported by Variety. Deadline notes that this represents the second largest global opening for an Indian movie overall and the best ever for Bollywood.
Domestically, "Dhurandhar: The Revenge" has grossed close to Rs 600 crore, while overseas revenues have reached Rs 225 crore, according to detailed estimates from Times of India. This demonstrates the film's widespread appeal, making it one of the fastest Indian films to cross Rs 500 crore and Rs 800 crore milestones within the same week.
Despite a slight decline in collections after the first few days, the movie continues to dominate major markets, with the total worldwide gross reported at Rs 844.76 crore by day six. The film’s initial momentum is noteworthy given that other major Indian blockbusters have taken longer to reach such figures.
Industry watchers will now be focused on whether "Dhurandhar: The Revenge" can maintain its trajectory to cross Rs 1,000 crore globally in the coming days, a milestone that would further cement its status among the highest-grossing Indian films of all time. Future box office updates and audience retention during the second week will be critical in confirming its long-term commercial success.
