Ranveer Singh's "Dhurandhar" has officially entered the ₹1000 crore club, becoming the 9th Indian film to achieve this milestone. The Aditya Dhar-directed spy action drama, which was released on December 5th, has garnered ₹1006.7 crore worldwide.
"Dhurandhar" has been raking in impressive collections since its release, with over ₹200 crore each week. On Christmas Day alone, the movie minted over ₹28 crore. The film's domestic collection stands at ₹789.18 crore, with overseas revenue reaching ₹217.50 crore.
The film stars Ranveer Singh alongside Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, Sara Arjun, R Madhavan, and Rakesh Bedi. It is produced by Aditya Dhar and his brother Lokesh Dhar under their banner B62 Studios, in collaboration with Jyoti Deshpande of Jio Studios.
"Dhurandhar"'s success is notable for several reasons. It achieved this feat without a Gulf release and is rated "A". Moreover, it is not a sequel. The film has surpassed the lifetime collection of Rishab Shetty's "Kantara Chapter 1" to become the highest-earning Indian film in 2025. It is also the first Indian film of 2025 to cross the ₹200 crore gross mark in overseas markets, beating Rajinikanth's "Coolie".
