Bollywood’s recent mega blockbuster Dhurandhar, headlined by Ranveer Singh, is showing no signs of fatigue at the box office. After collecting over Rs. 32 crore on its second Tuesday, the film once again put up a strong show yesterday, earning around Rs. 26 crore nett.
With this, the film’s domestic collections have crossed Rs. 450 crore nett. In international markets as well, Dhurandhar continues to perform exceptionally. At the North American box office, the film is on track to enter the $10 million club, a feat previously achieved by only ten Indian films. Till now Dhurandhar collected $9.69 million in North America.
Top-grossing Indian films in North America:
1. Baahubali 2: The Conclusion – $20.77 million
2. Kalki 2898 AD – $18.56 million
3. Pathaan – $17.48 million
4. Jawan – $15.58 million
5. RRR – $15.34 million
6. Pushpa 2: The Rule – $15.34 million
7. Animal – $14 million
8. Dangal – $12.39 million
9. Padmaavat – $12.15 million
10. Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani – $10.59 million
With Dhurandhar, Ranveer Singh is set to break his own record (RRKPK), as the spy action thriller is comfirmed to secure a spot in this elite top-10 list. Notably, the film opened with around $500K on day one and went from strength to strength with each passing day.
While Dhurandhar certainly has the potential to storm into the top five, the upcoming Hollywood biggie, Avatar 3, may pose a serious threat by taking up a significant share of screens starting tomorrow. However, if distributors manage to retain a healthy screen count, the movie directed by Aditya Dhar could still earn solid bucks in this territory.
