The third weekend’s earnings figures clearly show that this film has become not just a hit but a record-breaking phenomenon.

Nearly Rs 100 crore figure in the third weekend

This is the first time in the history of Hindi cinema that a film has done a business of around Rs 100 crore in its third weekend. ‘Dhurandhar’ made this record by making a historic earning of Rs 99.70 crore in the third weekend. Earlier this record was in the name of the film ‘Chaava’, which had earned Rs 60.10 crore in the third weekend.

From Chhava to Pushpa 2, everything went up in smoke

If compared, the third weekend of ‘Dhurandhar’ is no less than a storm compared to other superhit films. While ‘Pushpa 2 (Hindi)’ was limited to 60 crores, ‘Stree 2’ could reach only 48.75 crores, ‘Baahubali 2 (Hindi)’ 42.55 crores and ‘Gadar 2’ could reach only 36.95 crores. Even blockbuster films like ‘Jawaan’, ‘Animal’, ‘Dangal’ and ‘Pathan’ could not come close to ‘Dhurandhar’ in the third weekend.

Even outside the country, the magic of ‘Dhurandhar’ is at its peak. After the third weekend, overseas collection has reached Rs 186.15 crore.

The magic of ‘Avatar’ did not work

The interesting thing is that even the big Hollywood film ‘Avatar’ released during this period could not stand in front of ‘Dhurandhar’.
