Dhurandhar 2 Sets First Day Record And Single Day Record

Friday 20 March 2026 14.00 IST

Dhurandhar 2 set the box office on fire as it not only set a first day record as it beat the numbers of Jawan by a huge distance but it also looks the highest single day in history also with the collections of Pushpa 2 standing at around 74.50 crore nett on its first Sunday. Dhurandhar 2 has recorded a first day of around 75-76 crore nett.

The circuit numbers are generally less than the Pushpa 2 Sunday and that includes Delhi / UP and East Punjab (may just edge past on final numbers) but Dhurandhar 2 has business from the South which was very limited for Pushpa 2. The national chains are way ahead of the Puhspa 2 Sunday. The fact the film has not reached the Sunday circuit figures of Pushpa 2 shows what is to come over the weekend. That first Sunday of Pushpa 2 is the only other time that a Hindi film has crossed 70 crore nett in a single day.

As far as the first day goes it has beaten Jawan by a margin and Jawan had a release on Janmashtami which is a holiday in many places while Dhurandhar 2 released on Gudi Padwa which is mainly a South and parts of Western India holiday. Not that it really matters much as even if it was not a minor holiday then Dhurandhar 2 would still be looking at huge numbers such is the craze of the film.
