Bollywood’s Box Office Comeback
Dhurandhar 2 worldwide box office collection day 17: Aditya Dhar ’s Dhurandhar The Revenge has seen a revival at the box office in its third weekend, with big jumps on both Friday and Saturday. The film is now charging towards the ₹ 1600-crore mark, and is set to become the first from Bollywood to cross ₹ 1000 crore at the domestic box office.
Overseas Domination for Dhurandhar 2
Overseas, the film has been an equally big phenomenon. It raked in over $22 million in its first weekend internationally. In its second week, it crossed the $30-million mark. On Saturday, Dhurandhar 2 saw a 100% jump overseas, raking in over $1 million, compared to just over $500K on Friday. This takes its international gross to over $41.5 million. It is now the highest-grossing Indian film in many overseas markets, including North America, where it broke Baahubali 2’s 9-year-old record.
Chasing Box Office Records
Dhurandhar 2’s global gross earnings now stand at ₹ 1565 crore. It is steadily closing in on Pushpa 2 ( ₹ 1724 crore) and Baahubali 2 ( ₹ 1788 crore). The film should cross these two before the end of its run, but now it looks unlikely for it to surpass the final collection of Aamir Khan’s Dangal. The 2016 release is the highest-grossing Indian film, with a worldwide gross of ₹ 2070 crore, a big chunk of which came from China.
“Dhurandhar 2” is rapidly approaching the collections of “Pushpa 2” and “Baahubali 2,” setting new benchmarks for Bollywood on the global stage. While surpassing “Dangal’s” record seems challenging, its success is undeniable.
