The anticipation for the continuation of the Dhurandhar saga has reached a new peak with the latest official update regarding its promotional material. On January 19, 2026, the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) officially certified the teaser for the sequel, titled Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge. In a move that highlights the film's gritty and high-octane nature, the teaser has been granted an A (Adults Only) certificate. The certified runtime for this first glimpse is clocked at exactly 1 minute and 48 seconds, promising a packed and intense introduction to the next chapter of the story. To maximize the film's reach, the makers have strategically decided to attach the Dhurandhar 2 teaser to the theatrical prints of the highly anticipated Border 2. Starting from Day 1 of the Border 2 release, audiences in cinemas will be the first to witness the return of the franchise on the big screen. This cross-promotion is expected to generate massive traction, given the overlapping audience base for both high-scale action spectacles. The sequel follows in the footsteps of a cinematic giant. Directed by Aditya Dhar, the first installment of Dhurandhar emerged as a generational blockbuster, redefining box office benchmarks for Indian cinema. The film featured an elite ensemble cast led by Ranveer Singh, alongside powerhouse performers like Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, and R. Madhavan. The plot, a sophisticated spy thriller centered on international espionage and high-stakes combat, resonated deeply with audiences globally. Currently continuing its record-shattering theatrical run, Dhurandhar has already achieved All Time Blockbuster status. The film's commercial performance remains extraordinary, having amassed a Worldwide Gross of ₹1283.5 crore to date. Its domestic journey has seen an India Net collection of ₹825.1 crore (Gross: ₹989.9 crore), while it continues to dominate international markets with an Overseas collection of ₹293.6 crore. The franchise's immense brand value was further solidified when Netflix acquired the combined digital rights for both parts in a landmark ₹130 crore deal, even as the first installment remains a top draw in cinemas.

Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday's romantic comedy, Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, which arrived in theaters on Christmas Day 2025, has struggled to make a significant impact at the box office.Despite the festive release and the star power of its lead actors, the film was largely overshadowed by the continued success of the action spectacle Dhurandhar.

Apart from the stiff competition, the film also received mixed-to-negative reviews from critics. While the cinematography and production values were praised, the story, screenplay, direction, and performances of the lead actors were met with criticism.The lack of strong word-of-mouth further hampered its box office prospects. In a noteworthy gesture, it has been reported that Kartik Aaryan voluntarily took a significant pay cut of ₹15 crore from his remuneration to support the producers after the film's poor performance.This move has been seen as a sign of collaboration and support during a challenging time for the film.

Prabhas's much-anticipated horror-comedy, Raja Saab, directed by Maruthi, arrived in theatres with massive expectations. The film kicked off its box office journey with impressive numbers, capitalizing on the star power of Prabhas. However, after a powerful opening day, the film witnessed significant drops through the weekdays, indicating that the road to profitability will be a challenging one. With a hefty budget and mixed word-of-mouth, the film needs sustained momentum to achieve a hit status. The film's performance in its first week showcases a front-loaded trend, typical for a major star vehicle. It began with a strong ₹ 53.75 Cr on its first Friday, but saw a sharp decline on Saturday and Sunday, followed by a steep fall on the weekdays. The first week closed with an India Net collection of ₹ 130.25 Cr, with early estimates for the second Friday suggesting a collection around ₹ 3.50 Cr.

The mixed word of mouth appears to be the primary factor for the lack of strong holds on weekdays. For a film of this scale, consistent momentum is crucial to achieve the breakeven point and emerge as a commercial success. It's a steep climb from here, and the performance in the second and third weeks will be the ultimate deciding factor for its final verdict. The journey is made tougher by stiff competition from other Tollywood releases that have opened to positive reviews and are outperforming expectations. Films like Mana Shankaravaraprasad Garu, Nari Nari Naduma Murari,Bhartha Mahasayulaku Wignyapthi and Anaganaga Oka Raju have garnered strong word-of-mouth, providing compelling alternatives for the audience. This has resulted in a division of screens and footfalls, making it more difficult for Raja Saab to maintain its initial dominance. It remains to be seen if the film can overcome these challenges and find its footing in the coming weeks against such well-received competitors. As of its first eight days in theaters, Raja Saab has achieved a worldwide gross collection of ₹ 188.75 crore. This figure includes ₹ 155.55 crore from its gross earnings within India and an additional ₹ 33.2 crore from overseas markets. The total India net collection for the film currently stands at ₹ 133.75 crore. The final box office verdict is yet to be determined, pending its performance in the crucial upcoming weeks.
