The Ranveer Singh storm that has been dominating the Indian box office for nearly a month is finally showing signs of a natural slowdown. While Aditya Dhar’s spy thriller Dhurandhar 2 (also known as Dhurandhar: The Revenge) has been an absolute juggernaut, its 28th day marks a pivotal shift as it prepares for a major clash with upcoming releases.
Here is the complete breakdown of the numbers as the film nears its one-month anniversary.

THE PUSHPA 2 CHALLENGE
Dhurandhar 2 has enjoyed a majestic “free run” for four weeks, with major films like Bhooth Bangla and Toxic initially moving out of its way. However, the momentum took a slight hit on its fourth Wednesday, with collections dipping below the ₹5 crore mark for the first time in this final week of the month. The 18% drop from Monday’s ₹5.25 crore indicates that while the hold is “fantastic” for a film in its fourth week, the path to becoming the #1 Indian film of all time is getting steeper.
The film is now primarily relying on the Hindi belt, as its run in the South Indian languages (Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada) is nearing its conclusion.
📊 COMPARISON & THE ROAD AHEAD
The ultimate goal for the Ranveer Singh starrer is to eclipse the monumental ₹1265.97 crore net set by Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2.
As of Day 28, the gap stands at ₹131.17 crore. This would have been an easy feat if the solo run continued, but the arrival of Akshay Kumar’s Bhooth Bangla on April 17 is set to slash show counts significantly. With footfalls expected to divide, Dhurandhar 2 faces its toughest test yet: can it maintain a steady “slow-burn” collection to bridge that 131-crore gap, or will the Pushpa 2 record remain untouched?
🏁 CONCLUSION
Aditya Dhar has delivered a massive “Super-Duper Hit,” yielding an incredible 404% return on investment. While the film has already etched its name in the history books, the next few days will determine if it takes the crown or settles for a prestigious second place.
