Dhurandhar 2 Box Office Collection Day 11: Dhurandhar 2 earns over Rs 1365 cr worldwide, stares at its lowest single-day total

In an interview, Gaurav Gera revealed a funny behind-the-scenes moment involving his close friend Mona Singh during the shoot of Dhurandhar 2. While filming in Amritsar, Gaurav almost showed Mona his look from the film, but she immediately stopped him, reminding him that he had signed a strict NDA and shouldn’t reveal anything. She even told him “mat baat kar” (don’t talk about it), highlighting her professionalism. Gaurav admitted he almost slipped up, but Mona’s quick reminder helped him maintain secrecy, especially since the film’s details were tightly guarded—even his own family didn’t know much about his role.

With Dhurandhar 2, Ranveer Singh has smashed benchmarks, outperformed his own records, and raced ahead of contemporaries like Allu Arjun, cementing his position as one of the most powerful forces in Indian cinema today. The film’s phenomenal run shows no signs of slowing down, as it continues to cross milestones with remarkable ease. In its second weekend alone, Dhurandhar 2 made history by becoming the highest-grossing Hindi film ever in the 2nd weekend, collecting an extraordinary Rs 164 crore. In the process, Ranveer surpassed his own previous record set by Dhurandhar (Rs 146.60 crore), while also overtaking Pushpa 2: The Rule (Hindi) (Rs 128 crore) and Chhaava (Rs 109.23 crore).

Days after Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri was reportedly seen ‘liking’ a post by Dhruv Rathee that labeled Dhurandhar: The Revenge a “propaganda film,” the filmmaker has now shared his own review. Taking to X, he praised Aditya Dhar’s work, writing, “I was in the countryside of California, finally made a trip to LA just to watch Dhurandhar. Shabash. Bravo. Brilliant once again, @AdityaDharFilms. I genuinely don’t know what to say… anything I add may only become noise over something that already speaks for itself. I’d rather call you.”

Dhurandhar 2 now stands behind only a select few all-time blockbusters—Dangal (Rs 2070 crore), Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (Rs 1788 crore), and Pushpa 2: The Rule (Rs 1724 crore). Given its current pace and strong momentum, the Ranveer Singh starrer appears well-positioned to surpass these pan-India hits and potentially even challenge Dangal for the top spot.

Aneet Padda’s sister Reet Padda landed in controversy after she criticized the film Dhurandhar 2 on social media, calling it a “propaganda” film and questioning its narrative. Her comments quickly went viral and triggered heavy backlash online, with many users strongly opposing her views. As the criticism intensified, she first made her Instagram account private and later deleted it completely, and reports suggest she even removed her LinkedIn profile. The controversy also brought unwanted attention toward Aneet Padda, highlighting how Reet’s remarks sparked widespread debate and trolling on social media.

Actor R Madhavan took to X to post a message that he received from Ram Gopal Varma and wrote, "Got this message from @RGVzoomin Sir .. Had to show off and share it. Maddy shared RGV's message that read, “Let’s keep celebrating cinema that dares to go as deep as Dhurandhar Coming to your work it stands up as one of the most quietly commanding performances I ever saw .. In a high octane espionage thriller packed with explosive action, larger than life heroism, and raw patriotic intensity,instead of chasing the spotlight you simply anchored it with a stillness that amplifies volumes. From the film’s gripping opening the tense negotiations during the hijack scenario to the calculated orchestration of a long term infiltration mission into enemy territory, the way you played the cerebral core of Operation Dhurandhar is highly commendable because there is no precedent for this design You carry the helplessness of an entire nation on your shoulders, yet channel it into ax cold, precise strategy rather than displaying overt emotion. What makes your portrayal exceptional is its restraint. In a film where Ranveer Singh delivers explosive energy and the ensemble brings intensity, you have choosen subtlety not relying on loud dialogues or dramatic outbursts, but on micro expressions, a measured voice with an aura of quiet authority. Even in seemingly simple scenes a phone call, a strategy meeting, or a moment of disappointment you conveyed layers of inner conflict, moral weight, and unyielding determination. In an era where heroism often screams for attention, you reminded me of the strength in silence. Without being flashy you made me believe in the invisible hands that protect a nation by being the strategist who plans years ahead while others react in the moment. Your work here is a masterclass in understated intensity. It is the kind of performance that demands multiple viewings . If cinema is about making the extraordinary feel profoundly real, you delivered that in spades with your portrayal of Ajay Sanyal ” .."

The actor added, "This message from you sir is what gives me the courage to continue with the crazy choices I make. I want you to know that your message did not just serve its purpose, but has gone far beyond it to reassure me as an artist. It is impossible to express the full extent of my gratitude in words, but for what it’s worth sir …thank you so so very much for being the wind beneath the wings for all of us. I shall store this message forever. God bless you, sir. Much much Love and respect."

A post on Reddit’s BollyBlindsNGossip claims that director Aditya Dhar is planning a grand historical epic set in the world of Chandragupta Maurya, with Ranveer Singh reportedly attached to the project. As per the unverified insider chatter, the film may not directly center on Maurya himself but could explore stories within his era. The post further suggests that discussions are ongoing with major backers like Jio Studios and the Aditya Birla Group, with an official announcement expected sometime this year, possibly around November—though timelines remain uncertain.

Sharing his take further on the Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar 2, Ram Gopal Varma wrote, "The 30+ minute climax, reportedly rehearsed for six days and shot over 14 with meticulous continuity , turns a masjid fight into a visceral symphony of debris, chains, and the deadliest kills imaginable This isn’t mindless gore like the pre march 19 th 2026 films because in here , it serves character depth and theme elevation and Hamza/Jaskirat’s dual identity rocket fuels the tremendous fury, turning every punch, shot, and explosion into an extension of both national and personal rage . Dhar blends practical effects, clever camerawork, and minimal VFX making the carnage feel dangerously real. Dhar structures the film like a strategic dossier, dividing it into named chapters (e.g., “A Burnt Memory,” “Lucifer,” “Ghosts from the Past,” “Trial by Fire,” “Unknown Men,” “The Revenge,” “Dhurandhar”) each acting as a mini three act arc, giving the audience a clear “cognitive map” of escalating stakes. This technique prevents the massive runtime from feeling bloated and instead, it builds like a procedural intelligence operation as in setup, infiltration, detonation. He opens with high stakes emotional anchors (personal tragedy fueling national duty), then shifts into mandatory planning sequences that feel as dramatic as the fast moving action."

Dhurandhar 2 recorded a strong overall Hindi occupancy of 56.98% on Day 11 as shared by trade tracker site Sacnilk, driven largely by excellent traction during the afternoon (72.62%) and evening (70.77%) shows.
