Box Office Absolute Domination: Dhurandhar The Revenge Shatters Second Saturday Records; Eyes ₹900 Crore Club
Crushing all previous benchmarks, Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar: The Revenge has recorded the highest-ever second Saturday in Indian cinema history.
The box office rampage of Dhurandhar: The Revenge has reached a fever pitch. On its second Saturday, the spy epic netted an earth-shattering ₹57 crores, setting a new all-time record for the highest single-day collection on a second Saturday. This performance comfortably eclipses the previous benchmark set just months ago by Pushpa 2 (Hindi), which stood at ₹46.50 crores.
Outperforming Sunday Giants
In a rare statistical anomaly that highlights the film's massive pull, Dhurandhar’s second Saturday (₹57 cr) actually outperformed the second Sunday collections of both Pushpa 2 (Hindi) (₹54 cr) and Jawan. With the "big" Sunday still to be accounted for, trade experts anticipate a record-breaking second Sunday that could propel the film into uncharted territory.
Key highlights of the 10-day run include:
- The ₹700 Crore Milestone: The film officially entered the elite ₹700 Crore Club within just 10 days of release.
- Current Standing: As of Saturday night, the total domestic net stands at a staggering ₹747.50 crores.
- The Road to ₹900 Crore: With Sunday trending toward massive growth, the film is expected to cross ₹800 crores today, with the ₹900 crore mark likely to be breached before the end of the second week.
Status: All-Time Mega Blockbuster
The Aditya Dhar directorial has transcended typical blockbuster status to become a cultural juggernaut. By maintaining such high velocity in its second week, Dhurandhar: The Revenge is now effectively competing only with its own daily records as it nears the lifetime totals of the industry's biggest earners.
