Hook: The spy thriller that turned the box office into its own battleground, Dhurandhar, has just closed Week 2 — and the numbers tell a story almost as dramatic as its action sequences. Dhurandhar's second week finished with its lowest single‑day earning yet as it wrapped Day 14, but the film's broader run remains extraordinary: it crossed the Rs 500 crore India gross milestone in just 13 days and its worldwide collections have surged past the Rs 700 crore mark, even while new releases like Avatar: Fire and Ash tested its momentum[5]. What happened in Week 2 — the short version - Day 14 registered the film's lowest daily collections since release, marking the softest single‑day performance of Week 2[5]. - Despite that dip, the movie became the 16th Indian film to enter the Rs 500 crore club and is among the fastest to hit that milestone, doing so on Day 13[5]. - Worldwide receipts crossed roughly Rs 700 crore, underlining strong overseas and domestic legs even amid stiff competition from big releases[5]. Why the drop on Day 14 doesn't tell the whole story - Big releases opening (like Avatar: Fire and Ash) typically pull some audience away from existing hits for a few days, especially on weekdays[5]. - Week‑to‑week sustainability is often measured by cumulative run and milestones; Dhurandhar's rapid passage to Rs 500 crore shows strong legs and continued audience interest beyond opening weekend[5]. Factors that kept Dhurandhar going strong - Star power and franchise‑scale marketing around Ranveer Singh and Akshaye Khanna helped maintain footfalls across different markets[5]. - Positive word‑of‑mouth and repeat viewings are common for high‑impact action thrillers, contributing to durable box office performance[3][4]. - Solid overseas performance amplified the worldwide total, making the film a global commercial success for an Indian release[2]. What trade trackers and analysts are watching next - Whether Dhurandhar can sustain momentum to cross higher milestones (for example, Rs 1,000 crore worldwide) depends on weekend holds and performance in key overseas territories[3][2]. - Weekend comparisons against the new releases will indicate if the Day 14 dip was a temporary market shift or a sign of a steeper decline to come[5]. A quick look at milestones (highlights) - Crossed Rs 500 crore India gross in 13 days, joining the Rs 500 crore club as the 16th Indian film to do so[5]. - Worldwide collections reported north of Rs 700 crore at the end of Week 2[5].
