Dhurandhar Box Office Collection Worldwide Day 17 Update: Ranveer Singh film earns Rs 870 plus crore globally.Dhurandhar Box Office Collection Worldwide Day 17: Dhurandhar continues to dominate the box office with no signs of slowing down. After earning a whopping Rs 34.25 crore in India on its third Saturday, the Ranveer Singh-starrer followed it up with an impressive Rs 38.5 crore on Sunday, pushing its total India collection to Rs 555.75 crore.
On the global front, the Aditya Dhar directorial has now crossed the Rs 800 crore mark worldwide and is just a few crores away from surpassing the lifetime collection of Kantara: The Legend – Chapter 1, positioning itself to become the highest-grossing Indian film of the year. Kantara 2 earned Rs 852.27 crore globally.
The Aditya Dhar directorial has also achieved another major milestone by overtaking the lifetime worldwide collection of Vicky Kaushal’s period drama Chhaava, which also starred Akshaye Khanna and Rashmika Mandanna. Released on Valentine’s Day, Chhaava had wrapped up its global run at Rs 807.91 crore.
On Sunday, Dhurandhar recorded an impressive overall occupancy of 61.89% across 5,332 shows, underlining its sustained audience pull.
If the current pace continues, Dhurandhar is well on track to cross the Rs 1,000 crore mark worldwide—a first in Ranveer Singh’s 15-year career. Even his critically acclaimed blockbusters Bajirao Mastani and Padmaavat had concluded their runs at approximately Rs 357 crore and Rs 585 crore, respectively.
Originally, Dhurandhar was expected to face competition from Ikkis, directed by Sriram Raghavan and starring Agastya Nanda, Jaideep Ahlawat and Dharmendra. However, the makers of Ikkis pushed its release from Christmas to January 1, clearing the path further for Dhurandhar. The film, however, might face competition from Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, starring Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday in the lead roles.

User @smartspendcode shared on long note on X which read, "GREATEST Bollywood movie I have ever seen. Total dominance. Unseen. Unheard. Historic. Dhurandhar is a masterpiece. I watched the film last week, yet it refuses to leave me. Nothing fades. The scenes, the emotions, the silence, the rage, the truth, everything stays. I am honestly out of words even now. What @AdityaDharFilms has done is unbelievable. To tell this story the way it truly is requires immense courage, and to execute it with this level of perfection is something else altogether. Massive respect. We have been served negative narratives about our nation for decades in the name of so called secularism and Aman ki Asha fantasies. It exposes the reality once and for all, without fear, without dilution. For years, we were told distorted stories. In the name of being progressive, our institutions, our faith, and even our armed forces were shown in poor light. This movie flips that narrative with honesty and clarity. On the technical front, this film is brilliance at its peak. Finest performances. World class technical execution. Stunning soundtracks. Every scene matters. Every dialogue lands. Every background score elevates the moment. There is not a single weak frame. And above all, Sat sat naman to the unknown heroes whose supreme sacrifices protect this nation every day. This film feels like a tribute to them. Dhurandhar is not just a film. It is an experience. A statement. A reminder. Jai Hind."
According to trade tracker Sacnilk, Ranveer Singh-starrer Dhurandhar has earned Rs 8.09 crore as of 6 pm on Monday. The Aditya Dhar film’s total domestic collection now stands at Rs 563.84 crore.
User @BheeshmaTalks shared on long note on X which read, "#dhurandhar: Pure madness, that’s the only way to describe it. It gave me that kind of adrenaline rush. Indian cinema has explored terrorism-based narratives many times before, but Durandhar clearly stands apart. While most films show only one side of the coin, director Aditya Dhar dares to reveal the other side, the uncomfortable, rarely explored truth. The film goes deep into Pakistan’s roots and meticulously depicts how terrorism is born, nurtured, and sustained. From the very first scene, you are pulled into a gripping, unfamiliar world. Despite its nearly three-and-a-half-hour runtime, the film never feels long. Not even for a moment does it bore in fact, it makes you wish there was another half hour left. That’s the mark of genuine, immersive filmmaking."
The note further read, "Durandhar is a masterclass in original making. #adityadhar takes his time with every scene, giving immense attention to detail. By weaving real-life incidents such as the 1999 Kandahar hijacking, the 2001 Parliament attack, and the 26/11 attacks into his narrative, he creates a powerful and believable cinematic universe. Every single scene leaves a lasting impact. Even with a first half that runs close to two hours, there’s absolutely no sense of lag. #ranveersingh is outstanding, completely blending into the role of a spy operating within Pakistan. #saraarjun delivers a solid performance and does full justice to her character. But there’s another silent hero in the film #akshayekhanna who terrifies with nothing more than his expressions. #sanjaydutt, #arjunrampal, and #madhavan add strong weight to the narrative with their well-crafted roles. After delivering a landmark film like Uri, Aditya Dhar surpasses expectations and creates something even more powerful with Durandhar. Shashwat Sachdev’s music acts as a major backbone for the film, with an electrifying background score that elevates every moment. Overall, Durandhar opens the door to a world we rarely see or choose to see. Just go, surrender to the madness, and experience it on the big screen."
According to trade tracker Sacnilk, Ranveer Singh-starrer Dhurandhar has earned Rs 6.22 crore as of 5 pm on Monday. The Aditya Dhar film’s total domestic collection now stands at Rs 561.97 crore.
In a recent report, trade site Sacnilk shared that overseas, Dhurandhar has delivered one of the most formidable performances ever by a Hindi-language action thriller. Key international markets such as North America, the UK, and Australia have been instrumental in propelling the film ahead of its competitors, making it the highest-grossing Indian release at the overseas box office this year. Backed by a steady run and negligible drop-offs actor Ranveer Singh and director Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar is now firmly set its sights on the coveted Rs 1,000-crore global mark. As 2025 nears its end, Dhurandhar stands tall as the undisputed box-office juggernaut of the year, redefining the global commercial potential of Indian action cinema. With no film of a similar genre expected to challenge its numbers, the film is poised to close the year as the biggest Indian grosser of 2025.
Trade site Sacnilk shared that by 4 pm, Dhurandhar earned around Rs 4.72 Cr India net on its eighteenth day for all languages.
Here's what Dhruv Rathee said about Dhurandhar in his video in terms of how it portrays the negative characters, “Dhurandhar is an engaging film. Keeping this in mind, the film shows that our country’s Intelligence agencies hire criminals. There is another big problem in the film Dhurandhar — gangsters' depiction. Rehman Dakait. He was a devilish kind of guy. But in the film, his character has a different cool swagger. He delivers dialogues and the dance goes viral on Instagram... This is crazy,” he says.
Actor Ankit Sagar, who played Javed Khanani in the film Dhurandhar was asked in an earlier interview about R Madhavan’s character Ajay Sanyal which is loosely based on India NSA chief Ajit Doval saying in the film that ‘Ek Hindustani hi doosre Hindustani ka sabse bada dushman hai (An Indian is the biggest enemy of another India)’ is pushing Dhar’s agenda.
While the actor said he stayed away from politics, he added, "That was the situation in India at the time. This must have been researched, the director must have shown it based on it. Demonetisation happened… there must have been a reason. So many such things have happened especially in this country. While I cannot say anything as an actor… kuch to hua hoga (something must have happened)."
A fan shared a detailed Dhurandhar review on Reddit that read, "I watched Dhurandhar three days ago and that shit is still running through my head. The last time a movie stayed with me for a few days after perfect theatre experience was Vikram. All I knew about the movie beforehand was its cast, the positive reviews and its runtime that's it. It was a fresh and perfect experience for me. Movie was so damn good. This is how a mass commercial film should be like real shit. This is how a spy thriller should really be. I didn’t feel bored at any part of the movie. What added to the movie was its music. In each and every scene the elevation was peak. They not just added retro songs as but have sampled them so well. For example Sanjay dutt entry, the party bike chase scene everything was perfect. Then the cast. All acted so well. Every character had enough screen presence and was relevant throughout the film. The last time I enjoyed seeing a bollywood film was Dangal in theater. Y'all should definitely go to theatre and watch this. This movie was an experience to me. Dhurandhar is my favorite movie of 2025."

I had suggested her, but Aditya was very clear that he did not want what people call an item song, something that went out of the story. If it were just about one girl, it would have taken attention away from the story." Eventually, Aditya convinced Vijay to have two dancers, instead of one in the song, which is how Ayesha Khan and Krystle D’Souzacame into the picture.

Being a Ranveer Singh fan is never easy, and every true fan knows exactly what that means. I know we’re all emotional and there’s a lot we want to say, but right now, we’re choosing silence and simply soaking in this beautiful moment. Ranveer is the kind of artist who rises higher every time people try to pull him down. The more you push him, the bigger his leap. He’s a storm, and destruction follows him. Ishq jalakar from Dhurandhar says it best: "Aandhi banke aaya hoon, mera haunsala bhi ayyaash hai" ."
