Dhurandhar Box Office: Crossing Milestones and Record-Breaking Second Week
The film Dhurandhar has surpassed the ₹500 crore mark at the box office. Its second-week collections continue to advance rapidly. Dhurandhar’s second weekend earnings have outpaced major blockbusters of Indian cinema, including Pushpa 2, KGF 2, RRR, as well as Bollywood’s Pathaan, Jawan, and Gadar 2. Observing the film’s collection trend, it is projected to earn significantly more than ₹1000 crore. The film’s collections are increasing in its second week compared to its first week. Dhurandhar has achieved a box office feat that major Bollywood superstars’ films have not accomplished to date. Dhurandhar’s first-week collections significantly exceeded expectations. Notably, the film’s second-weekend earnings surpassed its first weekend collections.
Dhurandhar’s Day-Wise Performance and Worldwide Earnings
Dhurandhar’s collections on its second Saturday and second Sunday were substantially higher than its first Saturday and Sunday earnings. This trend is contrary to the usual pattern where films earn more in their first week, with collections typically declining in the second week. Dhurandhar registered record-breaking earnings in its first week, and its second-week performance has been exceptionally strong at the box office. The film is also performing remarkably well in overseas markets, with earnings described as unprecedented for a Bollywood film internationally.
The combined budget for Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar Part 2 is ₹280 crore. Dhurandhar’s box office earnings have already nearly doubled this budget, and its collection pace is expected to accelerate further. In its first eight days, Dhurandhar crossed the ₹250 crore mark in India, achieving an India net collection of ₹252 crore 70 lakh.
On its ninth day, a second Saturday, the film’s India net collection was ₹55 crore 34 lakh, exceeding an expectation of ₹45 to ₹48 crore. For comparison, the film’s first Saturday India net collection was ₹33 crore 10 lakh, meaning it earned over ₹20 crore more on its second Saturday. On its tenth day, a second Sunday, Dhurandhar is estimated to achieve approximately ₹65 crore in India net collection. The first Sunday’s collection was around ₹45 crore, indicating higher earnings on the second Sunday compared to the first.
Dhurandhar’s cumulative all-India net collection for the initial 10 days stands at ₹373 crore 4 lakh. The India gross collection reached ₹446 crore 71 lakh. Its overseas gross collection is ₹98 crore 29 lakh, nearing the ₹100 crore milestone. Consequently, Dhurandhar’s worldwide collection for the first 10 days totals ₹545 crore, approaching the ₹550 crore mark. It is anticipated that the film’s worldwide collection will exceed ₹700 crore within the next three to four days. The lifetime box office collection for Dhurandhar is projected to reach ₹1000 crore.
Kis Kis Ko Pyaar Karoon 2 Box Office Collections: Initial Weekend Performance
The film Kis Kis Ko Pyaar Karoon 2, with a budget of ₹50 crore, experienced a slow start at the box office. Its Friday collections were low. While slight growth was observed on Saturday and Sunday, it was not substantial enough relative to the film’s budget.
For its first day (Friday), Kis Kis Ko Pyaar Karoon 2 recorded an India net collection of ₹2 crore 12 lakh. On the second day (Saturday), a slight increase was seen, with the film earning ₹2 crore 53 lakh in the Indian market. On the third day (Sunday), based on improved morning show occupancy and slight growth in afternoon, evening, and night show bookings, Kis Kis Ko Pyaar Karoon 2 is estimated to earn ₹2 crore 80 lakh in India.
The initial three-day all-India net collection for Kis Kis Ko Pyaar Karoon 2 totals ₹7 crore 45 lakh. The India gross collection stands at ₹8 crore 92 lakh. The film’s overseas gross collection was ₹2 crore 48 lakh, indicating no significant earnings abroad. The total three-day worldwide collection for Kis Kis Ko Pyaar Karoon 2 reached ₹11 crore 40 lakh. The film benefited from the weekend for its first three days.
Akhanda 2 Box Office Report: Strong Opening Weekend
The action-drama film Akhanda 2, produced with a budget of ₹200 crore, was released globally on approximately 3000 screens in five languages: Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada. The film held paid premiere shows for its Telugu version one day before its official Friday release, which saw a decent start. Akhanda 2’s first-day collections were remarkable. On the second day, the film did not experience as significant a drop as anticipated, achieving decent collections. Its third-day earnings showed renewed growth.
On its first day, Akhanda 2 registered an India net collection of ₹30 crore 50 lakh across all languages, including the earnings from its paid premiere shows. On the second day, the film’s India net collection was ₹16 crore 57 lakh, outperforming the expected range of ₹13 or ₹14 crore. On the third day, based on slightly better morning show occupancy compared to the second day (though less than the first day) and increased growth in afternoon, evening, and night show bookings relative to the second day, Akhanda 2 is estimated to earn ₹18 crore 25 lakh in the Indian market from all languages.
The cumulative all-India net collection for Akhanda 2 over its initial three days is ₹65 crore 32 lakh. The India gross collection totals ₹78 crore 21 lakh. The film also performed very well in overseas markets, with its overseas gross collection reaching ₹19 crore 47 lakh. Akhanda 2’s total worldwide gross collection for the first three days is ₹97 crore 68 lakh. The film earned over ₹97 crore in three days, marking decent collections. The film benefited from the weekend for its first three days.
Dhurandhar’s Dominance in 2025 India Collections
Dhurandhar is poised to become the biggest blockbuster of 2025 by breaking collection records. It is expected to soon claim the record for the highest earnings in 2025. Currently, Kantara Chapter One holds the record for the highest collections in 2025, followed by Chhawa. However, given Dhurandhar’s performance, it is anticipated to surpass the lifetime collections of Kantara Chapter One. Its earnings will also significantly exceed those of the film Chhawa. This suggests that Dhurandhar will hold the record for the highest collections across India in 2025.
