Dhurandhar 2 has finally started slowing down at the box office after a manic opening weekend, but its momentum remains strong. The film's first Wednesday tracked better than most films' opening days. The Ranveer Singh spy thriller had a mega opening on Thursday, following record-breaking collections from paid previews.
The film saw three ₹100+ crore days in its four-day opening weekend, minting ₹454 crore net domestically. On Monday, the film saw a drop of just 43%, adding a strong ₹65 crore net to the figure. This was followed by ₹56 crore net collections on Tuesday, taking the film's domestic haul to ₹575 crore net.
On Wednesday, its 7th day in theatres, the action thriller again started on a strong note, even as the morning shows saw its lowest footfall ever. According to Sacnilk, Dhurandhar 2 registered 18.92% occupancy across morning shows, 31.15% across afternoon and 40.85% across evening shows on Wednesday.
This helped the film earn ₹47.70 crore net, taking its total domestic haul to ₹623.42 crore net in under seven days. Dhurandhar 2 has now surpassed the lifetime collections of Sunny Deol's Gadar 2, Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan, and Ranbir Kapoor's Animal.
The film will surpass the total haul of horror-comedy Stree 2 (₹627 crore) on Thursday morning. Once it does that, only one Bollywood film will stand ahead of Dhurandhar 2 in domestic earnings - the film's part 1 itself. Released in December, Dhurandhar set new industry benchmarks with its ₹895 crore haul in India.
