Nearly seven weeks into its theatrical run, Dhurandhar is clearly slowing down — but not surrendering. The period spy thriller, led by Ranveer Singh and directed by Aditya Dhar, has posted its lowest daily figure yet on Day 47, earning ₹1.50 crore at the Indian box office.
While the numbers are modest by the film’s own towering standards, Dhurandhar’s cumulative domestic total has now reached a staggering ₹882.50 crore, keeping it firmly placed as the highest-grossing Indian film ever in India. That said, the long-discussed ₹900 crore milestone now appears more distant, with momentum slowing week by week.
Day 47 Performance: Stability, Not Growth
On its seventh Tuesday, Dhurandhar matched its Monday earnings with another ₹1.50 crore. Trade circles had expected a small uptick due to a one-day ₹149 ticket pricing offer announced by Jio Studios. While the discount may have improved footfalls, it didn’t significantly boost revenue.
In fact, the film saw a sharp contrast when compared to its seventh weekend:
- Day 44 (Saturday): ₹3 crore
- Day 45 (Sunday): ₹3.75 crore
- Day 46 & 47 (Mon–Tue): ₹1.50 crore each
That’s roughly a 60% dip from the weekend highs — a clear sign that Dhurandhar is now firmly in its endurance phase.
Still Outperforming New Releases
Despite the slowdown, the Ranveer Singh starrer continues to outperform newer Hindi releases. Notably, it earned ₹1.23 crore more on its seventh Tuesday than “Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos”, which managed just ₹27 lakh on its first Tuesday.
What keeps Dhurandhar’s run remarkable is consistency. It remains the only Indian film to stay in double digits daily through its fourth week, and even after that historic stretch, it is still pulling in over ₹1 crore a day — a rare feat in modern box office runs.
Week-by-Week Breakdown So Far
Here’s how Dhurandhar built its historic domestic total:
- Week 1: ₹207.25 crore
- Week 2: ₹253.25 crore
- Week 3: ₹172 crore
- Week 4: ₹106.50 crore
- Week 5: ₹51.25 crore
- Week 6: ₹26.35 crore
- Week 7 (ongoing): Slowing but steady
In an unusual box office phenomenon, the film earned more in its second week than its opening week, underlining its strong word-of-mouth and repeat audience appeal.
Bigger Test Ahead: Border 2 Enters the Arena
The real challenge, however, is still ahead. Dhurandhar is set to face its toughest competition yet with the arrival of Border 2, a patriotic period war drama featuring Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, and Diljit Dosanjh.
Much like Dhurandhar, Border 2 banks heavily on nationalism, ensemble storytelling, and large-scale action — making audience overlap inevitable. With limited screens and premium show slots up for grabs, the coming days could decisively shape Dhurandhar’s final domestic tally.
Worldwide Box Office: Still Among the All-Time Giants
Globally, Dhurandhar has already amassed around ₹1,338.50 crore, placing it as the fourth highest-grossing Indian film worldwide. It trails only:
- Pushpa 2: The Rule
- Baahubali 2: The Conclusion
- Dangal
That alone cements its legacy, regardless of whether it crosses ₹900 crore domestically.
Final Words
Dhurandhar may no longer be sprinting, but its legacy is already locked in. Even at its slowest pace, the film is outperforming fresh releases and holding ground against upcoming heavyweights. Whether or not it breaches the ₹900 crore barrier, Aditya Dhar’s ambitious spy saga has rewritten Indian box office history — and that achievement isn’t fading anytime soon.
