Dhurandhar closed its first week at the overseas box office with USD 6.40 million (Rs. 57.50 crore) approx. Combined with Rs. 226 crore from India, the worldwide first week amounted to Rs. 284 crore approx.
Dhurandhar witnessed an extraordinary trend, with weekdays collecting higher than its opening day. The film faced capacity constraints across all major markets, which has led to a massive spillover. The spillover is so prominent that the film has superb pre-sales for the weekdays in the second week, when normally, even for the biggest blockbusters, they are nothing.
The second weekend is certain to be bigger than the first, likely to be over USD 4 million, capacity permitting. Were there no capacity issues, it could have gone over USD 5 million, maybe even USD 6 million. The total gross will surpass USD 10 million by Sunday; from there, it will cruise past the USD 15 million mark and likely target high teens, possibly even USD 20 million. The Christmas-New Year holidays at the end of the month are going to be a big help.
