Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar becomes first Bollywood film to cross Rs 10 billion in India

Dhurandhar, Aditya Dhar’s high-octane spy thriller starring Ranveer Singh has shattered expectations. Nearly two months after its release, the film’s relentless climb to the top feels like the perfect twist in a cinematic thriller.

Week after week, Dhurandhar has proven unstoppable. In its eighth week, the spy drama added Rs 2.9 crore over the weekend and another Rs 1.25 crore on Republic Day, pushing its domestic gross past Rs 1000 crore (Rs 835 crore net). In doing so, it overtook Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan and became the only Bollywood film in a club otherwise ruled by South Indian superhits.

The Rs 1000 crore milestone is no small feat. Dhurandhar now stands alongside titans of Indian cinema:

Dhurandhar has earned over $33 million overseas, bringing its worldwide gross close to Rs 1300 crore. Clearly, Ranveer Singh’s spy adventure has found fans far beyond domestic audiences.

Dhar-directed, Ranveer-led, and packed with a stellar cast, Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, and Arjun Rampal, Dhurandhar has set the stage for its next mission. Fans won’t have to wait long: Dhurandhar 2 is slated for March, promising to deliver the explosive conclusion audiences are already talking about.
