Dhurandhar has just achieved something no Indian franchise has managed before. The two films together have now crossed the Rs 3000 crore mark worldwide, setting a massive new benchmark for Indian cinema on the global stage. Backed by Jyoti Deshpande, Aditya Dhar and Lokesh Dhar under Jio Studios and B62 Studios, the franchise has also become the only Indian film series where both instalments individually entered the Rs 1000 crore club, highlighting its rare consistency and scale.
The journey began with the first Dhurandhar, which released amid cautious trade expectations despite decent buzz. However, once it hit theatres, the film quickly turned into a box office phenomenon. Strong word of mouth, repeat value and audience curiosity around its storyline helped it sustain an extraordinary run for weeks. It eventually crossed Rs 1300 crore worldwide, while also emerging as one of the biggest Hindi hits ever with over Rs 1000 crore gross, laying a solid foundation for a long term franchise.
Building on that momentum, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge took things to an entirely different level. Led by Ranveer Singh, the sequel opened to huge anticipation and delivered beyond expectations. It has already collected over Rs 1700 crore globally and continues to perform strongly in several markets. The film also created history by becoming the first to cross Rs 1000 crore net in a single language at the Indian box office, further strengthening the franchise’s dominance.
