Dhurandhar: The Revenge, starring Ranveer Singh and directed by Aditya Dhar, is setting the box office on fire even before its release.
The film has recorded massive advance bookings, signaling one of the biggest openings in Indian cinema history.
6.7 Lakh Tickets Sold in National Chains
As of March 17 (10 PM), Dhurandhar 2 has sold approximately 6.70 lakh tickets across top national chains like PVRINOX and Cinepolis for Day 1, including paid previews.
- Preview day: ~3.70 lakh tickets
- Opening day: ~3 lakh tickets
The surge in bookings indicates strong last-minute momentum as the release approaches.
Massive Growth Expected Before Release
With several hours still remaining before previews begin, trade estimates suggest:
- Preview sales could cross 4 lakh tickets
- Opening day bookings may close between 4–5 lakh tickets
The film is witnessing accelerated demand, especially in multiplex circuits.
Among Top Pre-Sales Ever
Based on current trends, Dhurandhar 2 is likely to rank among the biggest pre-sales in Hindi cinema, trailing only films like:
- Avengers: Endgame
- Pathaan
Without the split between previews and opening day, the film could have challenged even higher benchmarks.
Opening Day Box Office Prediction
Trade projections indicate a historic start:
- Preview collections: ₹35–40 crore nett
- Opening day (Thursday): ₹60 crore+ nett
- Total (including previews): ₹97–115 crore nett
- Expected benchmark: ~₹105 crore nett
The industry is likely to combine preview and opening day collections, which could further boost headline numbers.
Record Potential
If the film had a conventional single-day opening without previews, it could have potentially challenged all-time opening day records, possibly crossing ₹90 crore in a single day.
Final Take
Dhurandhar: The Revenge is demonstrating extraordinary pre-release momentum, driven by strong demand in multiplexes and nationwide buzz. With record-breaking ticket sales and massive projections, the film is poised for a historic box office opening.
