This question has sparked a heated debate online. While Dangal earned Rs 2,000 cr worldwide largely due to China, Dhurandhar 2 has been raking in huge numbers in India and other overseas markets. Fans and critics are divided, and social media is buzzing with bold predictions and scepticism about how far the film can go.

Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge Box Office

As of April 2, 2026, Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge has broken several box office records. In just 13 days, it became the highest-grossing Hindi film ever in India. According to Sacnilk, it surpassed its predecessor's lifetime India net of Rs 840.20 cr, reaching over Rs 844 cr by its second Tuesday.

The film also set the record for the biggest opening day for a Bollywood movie, earning Rs 102.55 cr net (over Rs 123 cr gross) in India on Day 1. It became the first Hindi film to score Rs 100+ cr net in a single day twice. Globally, the movie crossed the Rs 1,000 cr gross mark in just seven days.

Regional and overseas markets have added to its strong run. It became the first Hindi film to cross Rs 100 cr in Karnataka and set a new record in Kerala with Rs 15+ cr gross in 12 days, beating Jawan. In Australia, it became the highest-grossing Indian film with A$6.37M+ in 11 days, surpassing Pathaan and Animal. Domestically, it recorded the biggest extended opening weekend for a Bollywood film with over Rs 515 cr gross worldwide from Friday to Sunday.

Because Dangal earned so much from China, its total is far ahead. That makes the challenge for Dhurandhar 2 even tougher.
