In a stunning display of box office prowess, Dhurandhar 2 has shattered records by selling 2 lakh tickets for its premiere shows, surpassing the opening-day collections of several Bollywood films.
According to Sacnilk, the film's premiere shows have grossed ₹12.29 crore, with the bulk of the collection coming from the original Hindi version. The Tamil dub has also performed impressively, raking in almost ₹10 lakh from preview shows.
Dhurandhar 2 now holds the record for the highest collections by a Bollywood film from premiere shows, beating Stree 2's ₹10 crore mark. The film's collections are likely to increase further, given that the premiere is still 9 days away.
The ₹12.29 crore earned by Dhurandhar 2 for its preview shows is higher than what Shahid Kapoor's O Romeo earned on its opening day a month ago. Tiger Shroff's Baaghi 4 also opened at below that number last year, at around ₹12 crore.
Dhurandhar 2 brings back Ranveer Singh as Hamza aka Jaskirat, an Indian spy in Karachi, and will chart his backstory and his revenge against the gangs of Lyari for the 26/11 terror attacks. The film releases in theatres on March 19.
