Dhurandhar worldwide box office storms past Rs 1,200 crore, beats KGF 2
MUMBAI: Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar continues its box-office rampage, crossing the Rs 1,200 crore mark worldwide in just 31 days and sealing its place among the five highest-grossing Indian films of all time.
The Ranveer Singh-led spy thriller is only the sixth Indian film to breach the Rs 1,200 crore milestone and has now overtaken Yash’s KGF Chapter 2 to rank fifth on the all-time global charts.
At the domestic box office, Dhurandhar staged a strong fifth weekend recovery, adding over Rs 33 crore net across three days. Its India tally now stands at Rs 772.25 crore net, translating to Rs 926.7 crore gross. While weekday collections are expected to soften, the film remains firmly entrenched as the country’s top grosser, comfortably outpacing new releases including Avatar: Fire and Ash, Ikkis and Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri.
Overseas, the film has amassed $31 million so far and is tracking towards a top-10 all-time finish for Indian cinema abroad. The numbers are particularly striking given Dhurandhar’s absence from Middle Eastern markets following a ban, a setback estimated to have shaved at least $10 million off its international haul.
Even without that territory, the film’s worldwide gross has climbed to Rs 1,207 crore, underlining its status as one of the most dominant theatrical runs in recent Indian cinema.

Dhurandhar returns to theatres worldwide on March 13 ahead of Dhurandhar The Revenge release
Jio Studios re-releases blockbuster across 500 screens globally before sequel
MUMBAI: The spy saga of Dhurandhar is gearing up for a big-screen encore before its next chapter arrives.
Ahead of the release of Dhurandhar The Revenge on March 19, Jio Studios and B62 Studios are bringing the original Dhurandhar back to cinemas worldwide in a rare international theatrical re-release.
The global blockbuster is returning across nearly 500 screens, including around 250 in India from March 12 and another 250 overseas beginning March 13.
For fans of the franchise, the move offers a chance to revisit the film that ignited the high-octane spy-action universe just days before the sequel lands in theatres. It also sets up a rare back-to-back big-screen experience, allowing audiences to relive the original before diving straight into the next chapter.
While re-releases of popular films are occasionally seen in India, international re-runs of Hindi films remain uncommon. The scale of the rollout reflects the growing global appetite for the franchise.
In North America alone, Dhurandhar will return to theatres across nearly 185 screens, highlighting the strong anticipation surrounding the upcoming sequel.
The excitement is set to build further with special Wednesday premiere shows of Dhurandhar The Revenge scheduled across the US and Canada on March 18, a day ahead of its global release. Many of these premieres will be hosted on premium large format screens, featuring wall-to-wall displays, immersive sound systems such as Dolby Atmos, enhanced projection and luxury seating.
These formats are typically reserved for major Hollywood event films, and early bookings suggest strong demand with several shows already sold out.
The recently released trailer of Dhurandhar The Revenge has also sparked buzz among exhibitors and trade circles, with expectations running high for the film’s international performance.
Dhurandhar The Revenge is written, directed and produced by Aditya Dhar. The film is produced by Jyoti Deshpande and Lokesh Dhar.
Jio Studios presents a B62 Studios production, an Aditya Dhar film.
The spy-action thriller will release worldwide on March 19, 2026, in five languages including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada.
The film arrives in theatres globally on the occasion of Gudi Padwa and Ugadi, just ahead of Eid, setting the stage for a festive box office run.
