Aditya Dhar's much-talked-about film Dhurandhar, featuring Ranveer Singh and Akshaye Khanna in pivotal roles, is displaying clear signs of a slowdown at the box office. The movie has now entered its sixth week in theaters, and its daily earnings have dipped to their lowest point yet. This comes after the film managed to pull in another reasonably strong weekend, showing that audience interest remains, albeit at a reduced level.
Dhurandhar's Thirty-Ninth Day Collections
According to the latest reports from sacnilk.com, Dhurandhar earned approximately Rs 2.25 crore in net collections across India on its thirty-ninth day. This figure marks a significant drop, falling below the Rs 3.5 crore the film collected on its sixth Friday. However, the weekend brought some relief. Saturday saw a bounce back with collections of Rs 5.75 crore, and Sunday improved further to Rs 6.15 crore.
With these numbers, the total collection for the film's sixth week stands at an estimated Rs 17.65 crore. This weekly total is notably lower than previous weeks, highlighting the natural decline as the film's theatrical run progresses.
Week-by-Week Breakdown of Collections
Looking at the broader picture, Dhurandhar's box office journey has been impressive. Here is a detailed week-wise collection report:
- Week 1: Rs 207.25 Crore
- Week 2: Rs 253.25 Crore
- Week 3: Rs 172 Crore
- Week 4: Rs 106.5 Crore
- Week 5: Rs 51.25 Crore
The steady decline from week to week is typical for major releases, but the film's initial performance set high benchmarks.
Crossing the Rs 800 Crore Nett Mark
Despite the recent slowdown, Dhurandhar achieved a monumental milestone over the past weekend. The film surged past the Rs 800 crore nett mark in India. This achievement solidifies its position not just as the highest-grossing Bollywood film of all time, but also places it among the top earners in the history of Indian cinema.
Current estimates put the total net Hindi collection at Rs 807.90 crore. This figure underscores the film's massive popularity and widespread appeal across the country.
Gross Total Collections and Worldwide Figures
When we look at the gross collections, the numbers become even more staggering. Dhurandhar's gross total collections have reached an impressive Rs 969.25 crore. Overseas contributions add another Rs 289.35 crore to this tally.
Combining these, the film's total collection now stands at an estimated Rs 1258.6 crore. However, the production house has released slightly different figures. They report a total India net box office collection of Rs 857.40 crore.
On the worldwide front, the film is pushing hard to cross the Rs 1300 crore mark. Current estimates place the total at around Rs 1296 crore. Within this, the Indian estimate is approximately Rs 1011.73 crore, while overseas collections are estimated at Rs 284.10 crore.
These numbers highlight Dhurandhar's exceptional performance, even as it nears the end of its theatrical journey. The film continues to draw audiences, proving its staying power in a competitive market.
