Aditya Dhar’s espionage masterpiece, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, has entered a historic 44th day at the box office, refusing to slow down despite a wave of new summer releases. The film is now on the verge of rewriting Indian cinema history, trailing the legendary Baahubali 2: The Conclusion by a razor-thin margin in the global rankings.
Chasing the Ultimate Global Benchmark
For years, Baahubali 2 has remained the gold standard for Indian cinema success, sitting as the second-highest-grossing Indian film of all time globally. After 44 days of relentless dominance, Dhurandhar 2 has reached a staggering worldwide total that leaves a gap of just over ₹3 crore to overtake the record.
Industry analysts predict that despite a reduced screen count and new competition, the film is set to seize this "Global Throne" by the end of the current weekend.
44 Days and Still Standing Tall
Despite facing stiff competition from major new releases and the ongoing cricket season, Dhurandhar 2 maintains a steady grip on the box office.
-
Ongoing Resilience: Even in its seventh week, the film continues to draw audiences, earning over ₹1 crore daily in the domestic market.
-
Domestic Dominance: The film has made history by becoming the first Hindi production to comfortably breach the ₹1,100 crore net collection milestone in India.
-
South India Milestone: It is also nearing a historic ₹300 crore gross milestone specifically in South Indian territories, a rare feat for a Bollywood-origin project.
An Unprecedented Run
The success of Dhurandhar 2 has been driven by a combination of massive critical acclaim and a strategic theatrical window. While it has already shattered several international records previously held by major blockbusters, the worldwide lifetime crown is the final milestone remaining.
Box Office Snapshot:
| Category | Collection (Approx.) |
| India Net | ₹1,136.14 Crore |
| India Gross | ₹1,359.83 Crore |
| Overseas Gross | ₹425.15 Crore |
| Worldwide Total | ₹1,784.98 Crore |
As the theatrical run enters its final stretch, the industry is watching closely to see if the "Dhurandhar" will officially displace the long-standing "King" of Indian cinema by the start of the new week.
