Ranveer Singh’s high-octane action thriller Dhurandhar is unstoppable at the box office. After delivering a smashing performance across the opening weekend, the film has now successfully cleared its first major hurdle — the crucial Monday Test. The Aditya Dhar directorial continues to attract strong footfall, showcasing incredible audience retention and accelerating momentum driven by glowing word-of-mouth buzz.

Despite facing mixed critical reviews initially, the film is proving that solid content and star power can translate into big revenue when viewers connect with the narrative.

Dhurandhar’s Powerful Opening Weekend Performance

Dhurandhar kicked off its theatrical journey with confidence and pace. The film not only enjoyed a strong Friday opening but also witnessed impressive growth on Saturday and Sunday — reportedly jumping by 14% and 34%, respectively. This stellar trend allowed the movie to bag ₹103 crore within just three days in the domestic market.

Fans have praised the film’s gripping storyline, powerful action sequences, and Ranveer Singh’s compelling portrayal, helping build immense social chatter over the weekend. Theatres remained packed in major metros and growing steadily across tier-2 and tier-3 cities.

Day 4 Box Office Boost: Dhurandhar Passes the Monday Test

The Monday Test often becomes the deciding factor for a film's long-term success. Many big releases fail to maintain audience attention once the workweek begins — but not Dhurandhar.

According to industry estimates, the movie recorded consistent occupancy throughout Monday:

Morning Shows: 13%
Afternoon Shows: 26%+
Evening Shows: 37.71%

These numbers align closely with the film’s Friday performance — a tremendous sign of sustainability and solid audience interest.

Trade reports suggest that the film earned an estimated ₹23 crore net on Day 4 alone. With this boost, Dhurandhar’s total domestic collection has climbed to an impressive ₹126 crore — within just four days of release.

Breaking Records: Dhurandhar vs. Sikandar

With Monday’s figures counted, the film’s total domestic haul has now surged to ₹126 crore in just four days.

This milestone carries significant weight: Dhurandhar has now officially surpassed the lifetime India collection of Salman Khan’s recent release, Sikandar, which wrapped up its run with approximately ₹109.83 crore.

What’s Next for the Film?

Analysts predict the film will comfortably cross the ₹150 crore mark domestically and potentially breach ₹250 crore worldwide by its second weekend.

About the Film Directed by Aditya Dhar (of Uri: The Surgical Strike fame), Dhurandhar features a powerhouse ensemble cast including Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, and R Madhavan. Despite opening to mixed critical reviews, the high-octane action and star power have clearly resonated with mass audiences.

Final Verdict – A Box Office Juggernaut

Dhurandhar is more than just another action film — it’s a power-packed entertainer that has captured the audience’s attention nationwide. If the current pace continues, industry experts believe that the film may emerge as one of the highest-grossing Bollywood films of the year.

With lucrative days still ahead and a strong hold over ticket sales, Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar have a massive blockbuster on their hands.
