Dhurandhar 2 Worldwide Box Office Collection Day 21: Sandeep Reddy Vanga calls Aditya Dhar’s film ‘outstanding’; Ranveer Singh-starrer set for lowest single-day earnings

Dhurandhar director Aditya Dhar also shared in his note for Preetisheel, "What she and her team pulled off on this film is nothing short of extraordinary. When most of the crew was waking up, they were already on set. And when everyone wrapped, they were still there. Running on barely 2–3 hours of sleep, day after day, with a kind of relentless focus that you rarely witness. No complaints. No noise. Just pure commitment to the vision. There were more than a hundred character designs across both parts (some extremely complicated ones like Nawab Shafiq and Bade Saab). Thousands of faces shaped, aged, transformed. An army of nearly 20,000 junior artists brought to life through detail, texture and truth. But beyond the numbers, what stays with me is the intent. For Preeti, it was never about “looks.” It was always about people. About making sure every character, no matter how small, felt real, lived-in and honest. She treated each face with respect, as if it had a story worth telling. That’s rare."

Continuing his series of heartfelt posts for the force behind Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, director Aditya Dhar shared a set of photos along with a special note for Preetisheel Singh D’souza, a renowned National Award-winning prosthetic, makeup, and hair artist.

Aditya Dhar wrote, "Here’s to Preetisheel, my Sardarni sister from Pathankot.
Mera Sher. When I first heard her name, I’ll be honest, I was hesitant. There were all these opinions floating around, “she’s arrogant,” “she’s too expensive,” “she only does prestige projects.” And then I met her. In that one meeting, all of it just fell apart."

Ranveer Singh, who is currently riding high on the success of Dhurandhar: The Revenge, was spotted arriving in Jamnagar on Wednesday as a guest of the Ambani family for a special event. The actor kept his look simple and understated, opting for an oversized white shirt paired with loose black pants. He greeted people at the airport before making his way out amid tight security.

Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan was also seen arriving in Jamnagar in visuals that quickly went viral on social media. Several other celebrities are reportedly in attendance for the lavish birthday celebrations of Anant Ambani, Executive Director of Reliance Industries Limited.

Trade site Sacnilk shared that on Day 21, Dhurandhar 2 continued to be driven largely by its Hindi version, which contributed Rs 7.50 crore with an occupancy of 13.0% across 12,181 shows. The Telugu version collected Rs 0.20 crore with 18.0% occupancy from 434 shows, while the Tamil version added Rs 0.12 crore at 15.0% occupancy across 312 shows. Meanwhile, Kannada and Malayalam versions made smaller contributions, earning Rs 0.07 crore (19.0% occupancy, 126 shows) and Rs 0.01 crore (15.0% occupancy, 40 shows) respectively.

Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar: The Revenge has so far earned Rs 407 crore in the overseas market, emerging as the second highest-grossing Indian film overseas in the post-COVID era and entering the Rs 400 crore club. With this milestone, it is now eyeing the top spot currently held by Pathaan.

Actor Surya Sharma shared his reaction to Ranveer Singh’s film via Instagram Stories, writing, “@adityadharfilms kya gazab film banai hai aapne—mind-blowing work. Every single detail matters. @ranveersingh raising the bar as usual, in love with your craft. @castingchhabra casting ki encyclopaedia ho aap.”

Akshaye Khanna’s character Rehman Dakait was killed in the first Dhurandhar, but his performance continues to remain a topic of discussion. In a recent interaction with News18, his Dhurandhar co-actor Danish Pandor, who played Uzair Baloch, revealed that Khanna is so focused on his role that he doesn’t even sit with his phone on set. He said, “He doesn’t even sit with his phone on a set. He sits in a tight corner, not speaking to anyone unless spoken to. He’s an amazing soul. He sits quietly, keeps to himself and thinks about his performance."

Mouni Roy took to her Instagram Stories to share her review of Dhurandhar: The Revenge. She wrote, "@adityadharfilms, some stories don't just unfold; they command your complex vision & the ability to bring it to life... and Dhurandhar does exactly that. Aditya, what you've crafted feels both fierce and deeply human, a world so precise yet so full of soul. Your storytelling has a quiet authority... it doesn't beg for attention; it earns it."

The actress went on to add, "Frame by frame, emotion by emotion, you held the narrative with such conviction that it never once faltered. There's a certain fearlessness in your vision and an honesty that lingers long after the screen fades to black. Truly, I'm in awe. This one will stay with all of us, generations to come."

Praising Ranveer, she wrote, "Finally watched Dhurandhar, @ranveersingh What you've done in Dhurandhar isn't just a performance... it's complete surrender."

She added, "There's a fire you bring raw, unpredictable, electric but what stood out even more was the restraint, the silences, the moments where you let the character breathe without trying to impress. And that's rare. You didn't play the role... you became it, with a depth that felt both powerful and painfully real.”

She went on to add, "This was you at your sharpest, your most honest, your most evolved. Absolutely flawless. Hence, I call you the magic manic man, superhuman!!!"

She concluded her note, adding, "To the entire cast & crew, impeccable. I fall short of adjectives. My another most fav character was the bgm of the film. Oh so fun & magical. Love love love."
