Dhurandhar 2 box office collection day 1: On the back of a phenomenal release eve, where it set new benchmarks for box office collections in paid previews, Dhurandhar 2 is on course for an all-time record opening day for Bollywood. The film has crossed the ₹100 crore net mark on day 1, the first for any Hindi film.
Dhurandhar 2 box office collection day 1
Dhurandhar 2, directed by Aditya Dhar, released worldwide on Thursday, March 19. However, the makers had paid previews in select theatres across the world on Wednesday evening ahead of the release. The film earned a staggering ₹43 crore net domestically from the paid previews, giving it a sizable cushion for day 1. Just how monumental this feat is can be gauged by the fact that the previous record stood at ₹10 crore, earned by Stree 2 in 2024.
This record-breaking collection from paid previews allows Dhurandhar 2 to start day 1 not from 0 but from 43 crore, making a ₹100-crore opening easily possible.
Dhurandhar 2 has started on an excellent note on Thursday. On Thursday, Sacnilk reported that the film had amassed domestic collections of ₹102 crore, bringing its opening-day net total to ₹145 crore. With just morning and afternoon shows, the film has registered the largest opening in Bollywood history. Dhurandhar 2 is the first Bollywood film ever to reach the mark in a single day, and is not stopping anytime soon.
Dhurandhar 2 is reporting good collections from the dubbed versions. The Telugu dub is leading with ₹2+ crore collected so far, and the Tamil version is not far behind either. The Malayalam and Kannada versions are yet to pick up pace, largely because their paid previews were cancelled on Wednesday.
