The Ranveer Singh-led spy action-thriller has officially crossed the staggering ₹100 crore mark in global advance bookings alone, cementing its status as the most hyped Indian cinematic event of 2026.
Here is the complete, record-shattering breakdown of the ticket sales, the domestic rampage, and the unprecedented overseas numbers!
The Global ₹100 Crore Benchmark 🌍
Trade analysts are completely stunned by the sheer velocity of the ticket sales over the weekend. As of this morning, the worldwide pre-sales have crossed an unbelievable ₹101 crore!
The Domestic Rampage: The Indian market has contributed a massive ₹44 crore to the advance booking total. While the Hindi 2D version is driving the bulk of the revenue, the regional Tamil and Telugu dubbed versions are also showing spectacular traction.
The Overseas Tsunami: The international markets are treating this like a massive Hollywood tentpole release. Overseas advances have poured in an estimated ₹57 crore (roughly $6.15 million), with North America leading the charge by contributing over $4 million on its own!
Paid Previews: Dethroning the Kings 👑
The decision to open up paid preview shows for Wednesday evening (18 March) has proven to be an absolute masterstroke by the producers.
Ticket Sales: Over 5 lakh tickets have already been sold just for the Wednesday evening preview window across India!
The Record Broken: The film's paid preview collections have officially overtaken the all-time Indian preview record previously held by Pawan Kalyan’s They Call Him OG (₹25 crore) and comfortably surpassed Bollywood's previous best, Stree 2.
Midnight Madness: Despite the film having a mammoth runtime, even the late-night and midnight preview shows are registering sold-out boards across major multiplexes, with some premium mega-plex tickets reportedly selling for up to ₹3,100!
The ₹200-Crore Opening Day Dream? 🤯
With the current momentum, Dhurandhar: The Revenge is no longer just competing with other films; it is competing with the sheer limits of cinema capacity.
Trade experts are projecting that, when combining the Wednesday paid previews with the official Thursday opening day, the film could potentially deliver a historic ₹150 crore to ₹200 crore global opening.
If these projections hold true, Ranveer Singh is firmly on course to join Shah Rukh Khan as the only Indian actor to deliver two consecutive ₹1000-crore worldwide grossers!
The Verdict:
We are witnessing absolute box office pandemonium! Aditya Dhar has managed to build an espionage universe that has completely captured the global audience's imagination. Between Ranveer Singh's unmatched energy, the powerhouse ensemble cast featuring Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, and Arjun Rampal, and the promise of high-octane action, Dhurandhar 2 is geared up to be the undisputed cinematic event of the decade!
