Ranveer Singh’s ‘Dhurandhar 2’ is closing in on ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’ to become the highest-grossing Indian film domestically, with Day 40 collections keeping the race alive. The action-packed sequel has defied all expectations, maintaining impressive footfalls well into its sixth week of theatrical run.
Forty days into its theatrical journey, Dhurandhar 2 refuses to slow down. Ranveer Singh’s high-octane sequel has emerged as one of the most extraordinary box office success stories in recent Bollywood history, and now the film is eyeing a milestone that seemed impossible just weeks ago — overtaking Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2: The Rule as the highest-grossing Indian film in domestic markets.
What Happened?
Dhurandhar 2 has continued its remarkable theatrical run, posting strong numbers on Day 40 that have kept the film firmly in the race for all-time box office supremacy.

The sustained audience interest has pushed Dhurandhar 2 into direct competition with Pushpa 2’s domestic benchmark.
