Dhurandhar 2 box office collection day 17: Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar 2 has been nothing short of historic. After setting the fourth-biggest ticket-sale record on BookMyShow, it inched closer to the Rs 1000 crore mark on the Indian box office. The film is led by characters Hamza, Major Iqbal, and SP Aslam — played by the ever-so-dynamic Ranveer Singh and seasoned actors Arjun Rampal and Sanjay Dutt.
As it crossed the Rs 1500 crore mark on the worldwide box office, Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar: The Revenge cashed in on the Good Friday long weekend, boosting sales after a second week slump. Moreover, Dhurandhar 2 is just Rs 200 crore behind Pushpa 2, which would make it India’s biggest film, surpassing Aamir Khan’s Dangal.

While Dhurandhar 2 remains the fastest-ever to achieve this box office feat, it has had a thunderous roar overseas too. Not only did it become the biggest Hindi opener of all time, but it also had the biggest first-week collection, as per Jio Studios.
