Dhurandhar Movie Box Office Collection: A Record-Breaking Opening Day

The question on everyone’s mind is: how did Dhurandhar: The Revenge perform at the box office? The answer is remarkable, as the film has set new records with an impressive ₹240 crore gross worldwide on its opening day, making it the highest-grossing opening day for a Bollywood film.

On March 18, 2026, the film earned ₹43 crore net domestically from paid previews, which set the stage for its official release on March 19. Following this, Dhurandhar 2 raked in ₹102 crore net on its release day, bringing its total domestic collections to ₹145 crore net after just one day.

This phenomenal performance not only highlights the film’s popularity but also indicates a significant shift in audience engagement with Bollywood films. The previous record for opening day gross was held by Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan, which earned ₹129 crore. Dhurandhar 2 has now surpassed this benchmark, showcasing the film’s strong appeal.

Internationally, the film also made waves, earning almost $7 million on its opening day and exceeding $9 million in total international haul. This demonstrates the film’s global reach and the growing interest in Bollywood cinema outside of India.

Directed by Aditya Dhar and starring Ranveer Singh, Dhurandhar: The Revenge has been anticipated for months, and its box office success reflects the effective marketing and strong fanbase of its lead actor. The film’s release comes after a series of successful projects in the industry, contributing to a heightened expectation among audiences.

As the film continues its run in theaters, it will be interesting to see how it performs in the coming weeks. Will it maintain this momentum and break further records? Details remain unconfirmed.
