Dunki Box Office: 11-Day Global Performance
Rajkumar Hirani’s comedy-drama film Dunki was released on December 22nd and has completed 11 days in cinemas. While hopes were high for record-breaking collections, Dunki faced significant competition from Prabhas’s film Salaar. Salaar heavily impacted Dunki’s earnings in South India and performed strongly against it in the Hindi market, leading to less robust collections for Dunki in India. However, Dunki’s overseas collections have been quite strong. With a budget of ₹120 crore, Dunki has achieved a “Clean Hit” status at the box office.
Dunki Day-Wise and Total India Net Collections
Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki recorded an all-India net collection of ₹160 crore 22 lakh in its first eight days. On its ninth day, the film’s collection was ₹8 crore 25 lakh. The tenth day, a Saturday, saw a slight growth with a net collection of ₹9 crore 10 lakh in India. Based on reports for its eleventh day, Dunki is making an all-India net collection of ₹10 crore 50 lakh. Thus, Dunki’s total all-India net collection over its initial 11 days is ₹188 crore 7 lakh.

From the overseas market, Dunki has accumulated a total of ₹145 crore. Combining its domestic and international earnings, Dunki’s 11-day worldwide box office collection stands at ₹371 crore.
