Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar continues to win the hearts of cinema-goers while setting new box office records every day.

India’s Fourth Biggest Film

With a domestic haul of ₹810.50 crore, Dhurandhar now ranks as India’s fourth highest-grossing film. The third spot is held by KGF: Chapter 2 (2022), which collected ₹859.7 crore across five languages including Hindi, Kannada, Telugu, Malayalam, and Tamil.
