The upcoming spy action film Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, starring Ranveer Singh, continues to perform strongly in advance ticket sales. As of March 11 (11 PM), the movie had reportedly sold around 220,000 tickets across the top national cinema chains — PVR Inox and Cinepolis — for its Wednesday paid previews.
In addition, the dubbed versions of the film have added nearly 12,000 admissions, pushing the overall preview numbers even higher. Based on the current pace, the advance booking for the Hindi version alone is expected to touch around 222,000 tickets by Thursday morning.
Consistent sales momentum continues
Even on its fifth day of ticket sales, the Ranveer Singh starrer maintained a steady pace. The film added nearly 26,000 tickets across the national chains during the day, which is comparable to its previous day’s performance.
Considering the relatively long advance booking window, such consistent momentum is being seen as a positive sign. Typically, mid-period sales slow down before the final surge closer to release, but Dhurandhar 2 has managed to maintain stable demand so far.

Preview sales could cross 350K–400K
With about seven days still left before release, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge is on track to register massive preview numbers.
Current projections suggest that Wednesday preview sales could cross 350,000 tickets by Tuesday night. If the present momentum continues, the number could even approach 400,000 tickets, which would place the film among the biggest preview performers in recent years.

Opening day box office expectations
The film currently has a theoretical capacity of around ₹55 crore nett, which could eventually increase to ₹65 crore depending on show expansions and occupancy levels.
Based on early estimates, Dhurandhar 2 could comfortably aim for an opening day collection of over ₹30 crore nett.

This could slightly impact late-night show occupancy, especially as many second shows are scheduled between 9:30 PM and 10 PM. Had the following day been a national holiday, industry trackers believe the film might have even pushed toward ₹40 crore on opening day.
Still, considering the current buzz and strong advance sales, the film may continue to surprise at the box office.
