Ranveer Singh’s latest action thriller, “Dhurandhar,” premiered in cinemas on December 5. Directed by Aditya Dhar, the film also stars a notable cast including Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, R. Madhavan, and Sanjay Dutt. The movie has received widespread acclaim from audiences and critics alike.
Dhurandhar Box Office Performance
The film opened with a remarkable collection of Rs 28 crore on its first day. The audience response continued to build over the weekend:
- Day 1 (Friday): Rs 28 crore
- Day 2 (Saturday): Rs 32 crore (14% growth)
- Day 3 (Sunday): Rs 43 crore (34% increase)
- Day 4 (Monday, morning estimate): Rs 23 crore
By the end of its fourth day, “Dhurandhar” accumulated a total of Rs 126 crore domestically, as reported by Sacnilk. This impressive opening weekend placed it among the few films to cross the Rs 100 crore mark within three days.
Comparison with Previous Releases
“Dhurandhar’s” success is notable given that it surpassed the first weekend earnings of several of Ranveer Singh’s past films:
- Padmaavat: Rs 78 crore
- Simmba: Rs 75.11 crore
- Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani: Rs 46.81 crore
The film’s stellar performance indicates a strong audience engagement, and while a typical box office decline is expected on Mondays, maintaining collections around Rs 20 crore would mark a significant achievement for “Dhurandhar.”
Future Projections
As the week progresses, the box office dynamics for “Dhurandhar” will continue to evolve. Despite the anticipated drop, the film’s opening weekend performance solidifies its position as one of the year’s standout releases.
