Ranveer Singh’s latest powerhouse performance in ‘Dhurandhar’ is rewriting the rules of Indian cinema. While most big-budget films struggle to maintain momentum after the first week, this Aditya Dhar directorial is achieving the unthinkable. In a rare cinematic feat, the film’s Day 12 (Tuesday) collection has overtaken its Day 1 (Opening Day) earnings, leaving trade analysts and fans in awe.
The Magic of Day 12: Beating the Opening Day Blues
It is a standard industry trend for collections to dip as the days progress, but ‘Dhurandhar’ has completely reversed the cycle. According to data from Sacnilk, the film minted ₹30.5 crore (India Net) on its 12th day, which is significantly higher than its first-day collection of ₹28 crore. Seeing such massive growth during a working weekday in the second week is being hailed as nothing short of a box office miracle.
Breaking Barriers: 3.5 Hours & An ‘A’ Certificate
What makes this success even more remarkable is the film’s format. ‘Dhurandhar’ is a 3.5-hour long epic with an ‘A’ (Adults Only) certificate. Historically, long runtimes and age restrictions limit family audiences and repeat viewership. However, ‘Dhurandhar’ has defied these odds, proving that strong content can overcome any hurdle.
A Look at the Numbers: Total Box Office Breakdown
After 12 days in theatres, ‘Dhurandhar’ has attained ‘Blockbuster’ status. Here is the detailed collection report:
| Category | Collection Amount |
| India Net Collection | ₹411.75 Crore |
| India Gross Collection | ₹494 Crore |
| Overseas Collection | ₹140 Crore |
| Total Worldwide Collection | ₹634 Crore |
Ranveer Singh’s Biggest Career Milestone
With a global haul of ₹634 crore, ‘Dhurandhar’ has now become the highest-grossing film of Ranveer Singh’s career. The film is resonating deeply not just in metros but also in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities. Interestingly, even in regions like Jammu & Kashmir, where cinematic reach is often limited, shows are running housefull.
Power-Packed Cast and Gripping Narrative
Beyond Ranveer Singh’s stellar performance, the film’s massive success is attributed to its powerhouse ensemble cast, including Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, R. Madhavan, Sara Arjun, and Rakesh Bedi.
After a solid first-week net collection of ₹207 crore, the film’s second-week pace suggests it will soon cross even bigger milestones. If the current trend continues, ‘Dhurandhar’ is well on its way to entering the elite ₹500-crore club in India.
