# Dhurandhar Roars Past Kalki 2898 AD: Ranveer Singh's Blockbuster Claims 5th Spot in Indian Cinema History! Imagine a film that shatters expectations, storms the box office, and leaves even Prabhas' sci-fi epic *Kalki 2898 AD* in the dust—just 21 days after release. That's **Dhurandhar**, Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar's spy-thriller powerhouse, now reigning as the **5th biggest hit in Indian cinema** and 2025's highest-grossing Indian film.[1][2][4] Released on December 5, 2025, *Dhurandhar* has been a relentless force. It crossed the magical **₹1000 crore worldwide milestone** by Day 21, with domestic collections hitting **₹668.80 crore** after Day 21's ₹28.60 crore haul, and pushing toward ₹700 crore in India alone.[1][2] By Day 22, trackers like Sacnilk reported **₹648.5 crore nett domestically** (with Day 22 adding ₹15 crore), while worldwide figures solidified at over **₹1000 crore**, including strong overseas pulls like **₹217.6 crore**.[2][4][6] Wikipedia confirms as of December 25: **₹796.19 crore domestic** and a global **₹1,007.21 crore** (US$120 million), making it the fourth Hindi film and ninth overall to enter the 1000 Crore Club.[2] Day-wise dominance tells the story: Day 1 opened at **₹28.60 crore**, surging to **₹44.80 crore** on Sunday, with steady weekday holds like **₹24.30 crore** on Monday.[3] It outperformed 2025 heavyweights like *Kantara Chapter 2* and *Chhaava*, and now eyes giants like *RRR* (₹782 crore India nett), *Jawan* (₹1160 crore worldwide), and *Pathaan* (₹1055 crore worldwide).[1][4] Ranveer's high-octane performance in this Aditya Dhar directorial has audiences hooked, blending action, drama, and patriotism into a cinematic juggernaut.[4] Overseas, it's crushing it too—UK weekends raked in hundreds of thousands of pounds across screens, while the US saw millions in USD, proving *Dhurandhar*'s global appeal.[3] As the fifth highest nett grosser ever in India (behind *Pushpa The Rule* at ₹1234 crore, *Baahubali 2*, *KGF 2*, and *RRR*), this isn't just a win for Bollywood—it's a statement for Indian cinema's unstoppable rise.[4] What makes *Dhurandhar* tick? Raw energy from Ranveer, sharp storytelling from Dhar, and word-of-mouth that's kept theaters packed three weeks in. If you haven't caught it yet, it's still roaring in cinemas!
