Ranveer Singh’s espionage thriller Dhurandhar continues to dominate the box office well into its fourth week, defying the usual slowdown seen after the initial rush. According to data shared by box-office tracking platform Sacnilk, the film added an impressive Rs 20.9 crore to its domestic earnings on its fourth Saturday alone. This surge pushed the India net total to Rs 706.40 crore. The upward trend continued on Sunday as well, with the film collecting an additional Rs 22.25 crore, reinforcing its remarkable theatrical run.

Strong Worldwide Numbers Cement Global Success

Beyond domestic markets, Dhurandhar has also delivered extraordinary results overseas. Within just 23 days of release, the film crossed the Rs 1,026 crore mark globally. Trade estimates indicate that the worldwide total has now moved beyond Rs 1,051 crore, as reported by Bollywood Hungama. These numbers place the Ranveer Singh-led project firmly among the highest-grossing Indian films of all time, especially within the action and spy genre.

Theatre Occupancy Reflects Sustained Audience Interest

Audience turnout remains healthy across cinema halls. On Saturday, the film recorded an overall Hindi occupancy of 38.48 per cent. Morning shows opened at a modest 20.54 per cent, but footfalls rose significantly as the day progressed. Evening shows registered 45.34 per cent occupancy, while night screenings followed closely at 42.27 per cent, indicating strong word-of-mouth and repeat viewership.

Breaking Records and Chasing Bigger Milestones

In terms of India net collections, Dhurandhar has already surpassed Prabhas’ Kalki 2898 AD, which concluded its run at Rs 646.31 crore domestically. The film is now steadily closing in on Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan, which amassed approximately Rs 1,055 crore worldwide. As per a Bollywood Hungama report, the movie has amassed a collection of Rs 1051 crore already at the box-office. It is also locked in competition with Pushpa 2, whose Hindi version collected Rs 812.14 crore. Industry trackers confirm that Dhurandhar has emerged as the highest-grossing release of 2025 so far, outperforming titles like Kantara: Chapter 1 and Chhaava.
