Mumbai: Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge is continuing its phenomenal run at the global box office, inching closer to the coveted Rs 1,500 crore milestone within just two weeks of release. The film has already amassed an impressive Rs 1,466 crore worldwide after 14 days, firmly securing its place among the top five highest-grossing Indian films of all time.
Starring Ranveer Singh, the action entertainer has shown remarkable consistency at both domestic and international markets, emerging as one of the biggest Bollywood successes in recent years.
Strong numbers in just two weeks
According to early estimates, the film collected Rs 20.10 crore on Day 14, taking its India net total to around Rs 920 crore across all languages. Its India gross has already crossed Rs 1,101.47 crore, placing it in the elite Rs 1,000 crore club.
Globally, the film now stands fourth on the all-time highest-grossing Indian films list, behind Dangal, Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, and Pushpa 2: The Rule.
- Dangal leads with approximately Rs 2,070 crore
- Baahubali 2 stands at around Rs 1,788 crore
- Pushpa 2 has earned around Rs 1,742 crore
With its current pace, Dhurandhar 2 is expected to challenge at least the second and third positions in the coming weeks.
No major competition at the box office
One of the biggest advantages for Dhurandhar 2 is the lack of strong competition in theatres. The film continues to dominate screens across India, ensuring steady footfall.
The only notable upcoming release is Bhooth Bangla starring Akshay Kumar. However, there is uncertainty around its release date, with reports suggesting a possible delay from April 10 to April 17.
This extended window without major competition could significantly boost Dhurandhar 2’s collections, giving it a realistic chance to surpass both Pushpa 2 and Baahubali 2 at the domestic box office.
Gulf ban impacts overseas potential
Despite its success, the film faces a major limitation — it has not been released in the Gulf region. The Middle East is a crucial market for Indian films, particularly big-budget action entertainers.
Both Dhurandhar and its sequel have reportedly been banned in the region, resulting in an estimated loss of Rs 200–250 crore in potential overseas revenue. This could prove to be a decisive factor in its race to climb higher on the global charts.
Can it beat Dangal?
While overtaking Pushpa 2 and Baahubali 2 seems achievable, surpassing Dangal remains a tough challenge. The Aamir Khan starrer’s record-breaking total was significantly boosted by its historic run in China, where it earned over Rs 1,300 crore alone.
For Dhurandhar 2 to compete at that level, a China release would be crucial. Without it, reaching the top spot may remain out of reach.
Crucial weekend ahead
Trade analysts believe the upcoming weekend will be critical in determining the film’s trajectory. Strong weekend numbers could push it past key milestones and strengthen its position among the biggest Indian films ever.
With positive trends, strong word-of-mouth, and sustained audience interest, the film has all the ingredients needed to rewrite box office history.
Conclusion
Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has already established itself as a blockbuster of historic proportions. While certain limitations like the Gulf ban may restrict its full potential, its current momentum suggests that it could soon climb higher in the all-time rankings.
Whether it manages to surpass Pushpa 2 and Baahubali 2 — or even challenge Dangal — will depend on its performance in the coming weeks. Regardless of the final outcome, the film has delivered a landmark moment for Bollywood.
