Dhurandhar 2 Box Office: Ranveer Singh Starrer Emerges Second Biggest Indian Film Worldwide, Beating Baahubali 2

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, May 3 - Director Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has created history at the global box office, emerging as the second-highest-grossing Indian film behind only Aamir Khan's Dangal, and beating SS Rajamouli's Baahubali 2: The Conclusion. The film is produced by Jyoti Deshpande of Jio Studios and Aditya Dhar and Lokesh Dhar of B62 Studios. The spy-action spectacle starring Ranveer Singh has been on a record-breaking run since its release in March 2026. As per the latest box office numbers, the film has crossed 1,788 crore globally and is inching toward the ₹1,790 crore mark, putting it right alongside Baahubali 2's lifetime total of around 1,788 crore in 46 days. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) A Record-Breaking Run What makes this achievement even more remarkable is the consistency shown by Dhurandhar 2 throughout its theatrical run. The film opened to massive numbers and continued to draw strong footfalls in the weeks that followed, displaying exceptional hold despite competition from new releases. Dhurandhar 2's overseas performance has been equally historic, contributing significantly to its record-breaking worldwide total. In India, the film has grossed over 1362 crores, while its international collection is an estimated 426 crores.

As has been the case, China is not a regular market for the film; hence, it is not considered a suitable comparison with other films. For years, Baahubali 2, starring Prabhas, was considered an almost untouchable benchmark in Indian cinema. Its global dominance symbolised the scale and reach of Indian films. However, Dhurandhar 2 has now managed to edge past that milestone, signalling a new era for Bollywood at the worldwide box office. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) What Makes This Achievement Huge - Baahubali 2 held the No.2 position globally for nearly a decade. - Dhurandhar 2 achieved this without China and the Gulf release, unlike Dangal. - The film has shown exceptional longevity, sustaining collections deep into its theatrical run. - No release in the Gulf makes it the greatest overseas performance for an Indian film. An Irreplaceable Global Phenomenon Just like the greatest Indian blockbusters, Dhurandhar 2 will be remembered for its path-breaking success. While other films needed support from key international markets like the Gulf and China, Dhurandhar 2 achieved this feat without these two big boosters, making it an irreplaceable global phenomenon in Indian cinema, and its adult rating further speaks to its popularity among audiences.

Dhurandhar 2 Day 44 Box Office: Total Net Hits 1,136 Cr as Historic South India Milestone Now Seems Impossible to Reach

BY SACNILK

Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge is now moving at a slower pace than usual as it continues its extended run at the box office. On its 44th day, the film collected a net of 1.05 crore in India. This is a minor 8.7 percent drop from the 1.15 crore it earned on the previous day, showing that even in its seventh week, there is still some residual interest among the audience despite the massive volume of new releases. A major factor impacting the numbers now is the significant reduction in screen space. For the first time in its run, the show count for Dhurandhar 2 has slipped below the 1,000 mark, with only 851 shows recorded on Friday. This crunch is driven by a massive influx of new releases like Raja Shivaji, Patriot, and KD The Devil 2. Additionally, existing holdovers like Bhooth Bangla and Michael are also competing for the same multiplex slots. By today, which is day 45, the situation is even tighter with show counts expected to drop below 500, a logical progression given the crowded market landscape. Despite the shrinking footprint, the film has reached some massive milestones in specific territories. It is currently inching closer to the 100 crore gross mark in the Telugu states, currently sitting at 99.50 crore. Its performance in Karnataka has been even more dominant, with the film grossing 150 crore in the state. Total India gross collections have reached a massive 1,359.83 crore, cementing its status as one of the biggest earners in history. Perhaps the most interesting data point is the performance in South India, where the total gross has now crossed 297 crore. This leaves the film just 3 crore away from the 300 crore milestone, a record that no other non-south movie has ever achieved in Indian cinema history. However, with show counts dropping so rapidly and the intense pressure from new releases, reaching that final 3 crore target now appears nearly impossible. Given the current market trajectory and the massive reduction in screen space, it seems the film will fall just short of securing this specific piece of box office history. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Take a look at the language-wise net collection breakdown across India: Hindi: ₹ 1,068.04 Cr Telugu: ₹ 42.89 Cr Tamil: ₹ 19.63 Cr Kannada: ₹ 3.81 Cr Malayalam: ₹ 1.77 Cr In the national multiplex chains, the seventh-week performance remains quite steady given the circumstances. On its 44th day, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge managed to gross around 26 lakh from about 7,900 tickets sold across PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis. PVR led the chains with a gross of 15 lakh from 4,418 tickets, while INOX and Cinepolis contributed approximately 8 lakh and 3 lakh respectively. With an occupancy rate of 13 percent across 400 shows in these chains, the movie is still finding a niche audience even as the focus of major theaters shifts toward newer tentpole releases. On the digital front, BookMyShow recorded 27.09K ticket sales for this seventh Friday. The international market added another 0.25 crore on day 44, bringing the total overseas gross to 425.40 crore. When you combine the domestic and international figures, the worldwide total gross stands at 1,785.23 crore. It is a massive total for any Indian film, especially considering how the Hindi version alone accounts for over 1,068 crore of the total net collection.

Bhooth Bangla Day 15 Box Office: India Net Hits 132.65 Cr as it Surpasses the 3rd Friday Collection Records of URI and Kalki 2898 AD

BY SACNILK

Bhooth Bangla has shown a positive trend as it enters its third week at the box office. On day 15, which was its third Friday, the film collected a net of 4.50 crore. This represents a solid 28.6 percent growth compared to the 3.50 crore it earned on Thursday. This kind of upward movement on a Friday suggests that the film still has enough legs to draw in the weekend crowd even after two weeks in theaters. What makes these numbers even more impressive is the current state of the box office. With the major release of films like Raja Shivaji, Patriot, and The Devil Wears Prada 2 yesterday, the competition for screen space has become intense. This crowded market led to a sharp reduction in shows for Bhooth Bangla, which dropped from roughly 8,000 shows on Thursday to 4,807 shows on Friday.Managing a 28.6 percent growth while operating on nearly half the number of shows is a strong indicator of the film's resilience. It suggests that while total capacity decreased, the occupancy per show spiked as audiences continued to favor this two-week-old release despite the arrival other competitions. The total India net collection has now reached 132.65 crore. When you consider the reported budget of 120 crore, the film has officially moved past the recovery stage and is now comfortably in the profit zone. The total India gross collection stands at 157.55 crore so far, reflecting a very healthy run in the domestic market across its 4,807 shows on day 15. It is interesting to see where the film stands in historical terms. With its day 15 performance, Bhooth Bangla has secured the 18th spot on the list of highest third-Friday collections for Hindi movies. By achieving this, it has surpassed the third-Friday numbers of major blockbusters like Kalki 2898 AD, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, and URI: The Surgical Strike. This ranking is a clear indicator of the film's consistent holding power at the box office. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Ticket sales on BookMyShow continue to stay active, with 89,070 tickets sold on the third Friday alone. This brings the total tickets sold on the platform to a massive 25.24 lakh. In the national multiplex chains, the movie saw steady footfalls, selling approximately 19,100 tickets and grossing about 60 lakh on day 15. While these are not opening-day levels, they are very respectable figures for a third-week run. The overseas performance has also been a key part of the film's success story. On day 15, it added 1.25 crore from international markets, taking the total overseas gross to 53.50 crore. The Gulf region has emerged as a standout territory, with the UAE alone contributing 1.07 million dollars (roughly 9 crore) over the 15-day period. Given that the UAE usually drives the bulk of the region’s business, the total GCC contribution is trending in the $1.5 million to $1.7 million range. This performance has played a major role in pushing the worldwide gross past the 211.05 crore mark. Looking at the trajectory, we can expect a significant jump over the rest of the third weekend. Saturday and Sunday are likely to see even better occupancy, which could potentially push the third-weekend net total toward the 16 to 18 crore range. If this trend continues, Bhooth Bangla is well on its way to finishing its third weekend with a net total near 140-145 crore, further increasing its profitability for the makers.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 Box Office: The Comedy Drama Matches Michael With 2 Crore Paid Previews In India

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, May 1 - The much-awaited sequel The Devil Wears Prada 2 has kicked off its India run on a promising note, delivering solid numbers from paid previews and signalling strong urban traction. According to estimates, the film has collected around 1.90-2 crore gross from paid previews across India. This puts it right on par with Michael, which had clocked around 2 crore gross in paid previews last week. The collections are heavily driven by metro cities like Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, and Bengaluru, with premium chains such as PVR INOX contributing a significant chunk of the business. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) This trend highlights the film's appeal among urban audiences, typical for a stylish, dialogue-heavy comedy-drama rather than a mass-market spectacle. With positive momentum from previews, the film is now eyeing an opening day of 7-8 crore (including previews) in India. Hollywood films have been enjoying a good run in India in 2026, and The Devil Wears Prada 2 is well-positioned to continue that streak. The nostalgic value of the 2006 original, combined with the returning star cast led by Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, and Emily Blunt, is clearly working in its favour. If the film shows good growth over the weekend and maintains steady weekday holds, it could comfortably join the list of successful Hollywood releases in India this year.

Bhooth Bangla Week 2 Box Office: Akshay Kumar Scores Rs.43.75 Cr, his Second-Highest Post-COVID Week 2 as Global Collections Breach 200 Crores

BY SACNILK

Akshay Kumar's latest horror-comedy venture, Bhooth Bangla, has maintained a very impressive momentum throughout its second week. The film managed to collect approximately 43.75 crore net during this period, showing that the genre still holds significant sway over the family audience. If you have been following the box office performance of Akshay’s films in the post-pandemic era, this result is particularly noteworthy as it solidifies the movie as one of his most stable performers in recent years. This steady hold has now pushed the total worldwide gross past the 200 crore milestone, a clear sign of the film's wide acceptance. When we look at the daily trends in national multiplex chains like PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis, the second weekend performance was the clear highlight. On the second Friday, the film sold about 16,000 tickets, which saw a massive jump on Saturday to 45,000 bookings. The momentum peaked on the second Sunday with over 57,000 tickets sold in these chains alone. Even on the weekdays, the film showed surprising resilience, especially on Tuesday where it spiked to 32,000 tickets. In total, Bhooth Bangla sold approximately 185,000 tickets across major national chains during its second week, indicating strong ground-level interest in urban centers.

The second week added another 820,000 tickets, with the weekend days—Friday through Sunday—contributing nearly 512,000 of those bookings. The daily performance on the platform remained consistent even on weekdays, ranging between 64,000 and 88,000 tickets daily. Coming to the overall totals, Bhooth Bangla has now achieved a worldwide gross of 204.40 crore, which includes an India gross of 152.15 crore and a solid contribution of 52.25 crore from overseas. While the total India net stands at 128.15 crore across 144,768 shows, the current momentum is what stands out. Even with several new films releasing today, the movie is benefiting from the long weekend and showing a massive 2x jump in its booking trend. For instance, between 11 AM and 12 PM today, the film sold nearly 8,860 tickets on BookMyShow compared to 4,470 during the same period yesterday. Since 8 AM today, the total tickets sold have already touched 21,800, which is more than double yesterday's tally of approximately 10,200. This strong resilience in the face of fresh competition further cements its hit status as it prepares for another big weekend.

Dhurandhar 2 Week 6 Box Office: A 12 Crore Hold Sets the Stage to Surpass Baahubali 2's 1788 Crore Worldwide Record

BY SACNILK

Dhurandhar 2 has officially proven that it is not just a massive opener but a genuine marathon runner at the box office. While most big-budget films struggle to stay relevant after the third week, this sequel has managed to hold its ground even in its sixth week. The film wrapped up the week with a collection of approximately 12.40 crore, which is a testament to its incredible leg-room. If you look at the language breakdown, the Hindi version continues to do the heavy lifting, contributing nearly 11.80 crore of the total, while the South Indian markets added about 60 lakh collectively. One of the most impressive aspects of this journey has been the digital footfall on BookMyShow. The film has reached a staggering milestone of 1.81 crore total tickets booked on the platform since its release. This momentum started with 2.41 million tickets in pre-sales and a massive 8.92 million in its first extended week. The footfall remained high with 3.62 million in the second week and 1.58 million in the third, followed by nearly 1.3 million tickets combined across weeks four and five. Even in its sixth week, the film added another 259,000 tickets to its tally.

Even on the weekdays, the film showed surprising resilience, particularly on Tuesday where it saw a spike back up to nearly 20,000 tickets. By the end of its sixth week, Dhurandhar 2 sold a total of approximately 96,000 tickets across the top national chains. This kind of consistency at such a late stage in its theatrical run is what separates a regular hit from an all-time blockbuster. To put these numbers into perspective, we have to look at where Dhurandhar 2 stands in the history of Indian cinema. By collecting 12.40 crore in its sixth week, it has officially entered the top five list of highest-ever week six collections. It has managed to edge past the likes of Uri: The Surgical Strike, while trailing behind only a few legendary performers like its predecessor and the other releases Stree 2 and Chhaava.

It currently sits just about 5 crore away from the lifetime worldwide collection of Baahubali 2, which stands at 1,788.06 crore. Given its steady week six hold and a net collection of 1,135.04 crore across over 5 lakh shows, the film is now almost certain to surpass that legendary figure by the end of its seventh weekend.

Raja Shivaji vs. Chhaava Advance Booking:Analyzing the Clash Between Regional Authenticity and Bollywood's Record-Breaking Scale

BY SACNILK

The historical genre in Indian cinema has recently seen two major projects based on the Maratha legacy take very different paths at the box office. While Chhaava was released as a purely Hindi production, the upcoming Raja Shivaji is taking a dual-language approach by releasing in both Marathi and Hindi. Although it is clear from the data that Raja Shivaji is playing on a different commercial level, comparing the two provides a fascinating look at how a multi-lingual regional film stands against a massive Bollywood production. To understand the scale of this competition, we have to look at the benchmark set by Chhaava for its opening day. Even as a Hindi-only release, the film managed to generate immense momentum, particularly within Maharashtra. Its final advance booking for day one stood at approximately 4.88 lakh tickets sold across India, translating to a gross of nearly 17.89 crore including block seats. This volume was driven by a heavy presence in national chains, where it sold over 2.14 lakh tickets, setting a high bar for any historical drama aiming for a massive start. On the other hand, Raja Shivaji is leaning into a strategy that combines regional loyalty with a wide national footprint. Backed by Jio Studios, the film is aiming for a massive showing of around 5,700 shows nationwide across its two versions. However, the internal breakdown of these shows tells a very interesting story about where the demand actually lies. Despite having a massive push in Hindi with nearly 3,900 shows, that version has sold only about 34,000 tickets so far. In sharp contrast, the Marathi version is completely dominating the pre-sales, selling over 1.67 lakh tickets from just 1,786 shows. This clear preference for the native language version is what has pushed the total opening day advance to approximately 2.02 lakh tickets, resulting in a gross of 6.54 crore with block seats. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Day 1 Advance Booking: Chhaava vs. Raja ShivajiMETRICCHHAAVA (HINDI ONLY)RAJA SHIVAJI (MAR + HIN)Total Tickets Sold4.88 Lakh2.02 LakhTotal Advance Gross (With Block)₹ 17.89 Cr₹ 6.54 CrBMS Final Pre-Sales776.6K Tickets217.3K TicketsNational Chain Sales2.14 Lakh81,866 Tickets The regional data is where the story gets even more detailed. Even though Chhaava was purely in Hindi, its subject matter ensured that it dominated Maharashtra. It recorded a massive opening with nearly 4.50 crore in advance sales from the state alone, with Pune and Mumbai showing occupancy peaks of 62.5 percent and nearly 80 percent. Coming to Raja Shivaji, the response is heavily concentrated in its native language. The Marathi 2D version has sold over 1.67 lakh tickets, with Mumbai and Pune showing real occupancy levels of 44 percent and 55 percent respectively. However, the Hindi version is seeing a slower start, with territories like NCR currently at a 2 percent occupancy across 433 shows.

While Chhaava set a high benchmark with its 33.50 crore opening day net, Raja Shivaji is testing how far a film can go when it prioritizes its regional roots while still competing for a national footprint. Even if it does not reach the same opening day totals as a major Bollywood actioner, the current pre-sales and the sheer scale of its release are already setting a historic new benchmark for the Marathi film industry.

Patriot Final Advance Booking: Rs. 21+ Crore Worldwide Pre-Sales Secures Second-Biggest Malayalam Opening and Positions Film for a 100 Crore Weekend

BY SACNILK

The much-awaited Malayalam actioner Patriot is off to a scorching start at the box office. Featuring the powerhouse trio of Mammootty, Mohanlal, and Fahadh Faasil, the film is officially the most expensive Malayalam production ever, with a massive budget estimated between 125 and 140 crores. This scale is evident on screen, with the story of a retired JAG officer and a colonel fighting a national security conspiracy shot across global locations like London, Azerbaijan, and Thailand. Even before the first show began, the pre-sales figures made it clear that we are looking at a historic opener. Starting with its home turf, Kerala, the film has managed a final pre-sale figure of around 5.45 crores. This is a huge achievement as it becomes only the tenth film in history to cross the 4 crore mark in Kerala advance bookings, joining big names like Odiyan and Leo. The ticket velocity was particularly wild during the initial hours; over 32,000 tickets were sold in the very first hour, which jumped to 85,000 by 1 PM on the first day. This record-breaking pace has pushed it to become the second-best advance for a Malayalam film in the state. To give you some perspective, here is how the top leaderboard for Kerala pre-sales looks now: Empuraan: 11.75 Crores Coolie: 8.05 Crores Leo: 7.60 Crores Patriot: 5.45 Crores Coming to the performance in national multiplex chains, the trend has been quite interesting. While the activity was almost non-existent on April 30 with less than a hundred tickets sold, it saw a massive spike as May 1 approached. On the opening day, the film sold over 54,000 tickets across major chains, bringing in a gross of nearly 1.75 crores. The momentum is staying strong for the rest of the weekend too, with bookings for May 2 already crossing the 20,000 mark. Occupancy levels are also looking healthy, with chains like PVR and Cinepolis showing nearly 50 percent occupancy for day one shows. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Moving to the digital side of things, the response on BookMyShow has been equally dominant. Patriot wrapped up its pre-sales on the platform with 333,000 tickets. The final 24 hours before release saw a huge surge, with 145,000 tickets booked in that window alone. In the context of Malayalam films released since 2024, this puts it at the number two spot, ahead of major hits like The GOAT Life at 309,000 and Aadu 3 at 235,000. While the 1.3 million record set by Empuraan is still far off, Patriot has created a significant gap between itself and other recent releases. The international market has provided another massive boost to these numbers. Overseas pre-sales have touched the 14 crore mark, with the GCC region alone contributing a solid 7.11 crores. When you add the 1.70 crores from the rest of India and the strong Kerala numbers, the total worldwide pre-sales stand at a staggering 21.15 crores. This makes it the second-biggest global advance in the history of Malayalam cinema, trailing only behind the record-breaking figures of Empuraan. Overall, with a combined three-day weekend advance of roughly 28 crores, the film is perfectly positioned for a historic run. Since today is a May 1st holiday, the movie is expected to gain huge traction from walk-in audiences, putting it on a clear path to potentially breach the 100 crore gross mark globally over the long weekend. Given the massive 130 crore plus investment, the trade will be watching the weekday holds closely, but if the initial word of mouth stays positive, Patriot is set to completely redefine the commercial potential of the industry.

Raja Shivaji Box Office: Riteish Deshmukh's Historical Epic Creates History With Record Opening

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, May 1 - Jio Studios and Mumbai Film Company's historical action drama Raja Shivaji has scripted history at the box office even before hitting the big screens. The film has scored the biggest opening ever for a Marathi film based on advance bookings alone, setting the stage for a massive opening. Record Advance Booking Sets the Tone Directed by and starring Riteish Deshmukh, Raja Shivaji closed its advance booking at 5.14 crore gross crores (without block seats), including a historic 4.25 crore gross (3.60 crore net) for the original Marathi version alone. This is a landmark figure for the industry and comfortably places the film at the top in terms of opening day collections among Marathi releases. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) What makes this even more significant is that the film has already matched peak opening-day benchmarks through advance sales alone, with spot bookings and walk-ins expected to push the final Day 1 total even higher. With 3.60 crore net in advances, Raja Shivaji has gone past the long-standing opening-day figures of Sairat and Timepass 2, which scored around 3.60 crore net each. Strong Maharashtra Performance Drives Numbers The film's exceptional start is largely driven by its Marathi version, which has recorded strong occupancy across multiplexes and single screens alike in Maharashtra. On the other hand, the Hindi version has seen some momentum in advance sales with opening day figures already nearing 1 crore gross before release. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The scale, subject, and mounting of Raja Shivaji have clearly struck a chord with audiences. With this opening, the film has not only set a new record but also raised the commercial ceiling for Marathi cinema, proving that regional films can deliver blockbuster-level openings with the right mix of content and presentation.
