Box Office Update: Dhurandhar 2 smashes Pathaan in style, is it going for Jawan next?Ranveer Singh's latest film, Dhurandhar: The Revenge, is all the rage at the box office ever since its release. The film hasn't just maintained its stronghold at the ticket counters but outpaced the 2023 film Pathaan, which was considered Shah Rukh Khan's comeback after a 4-year-long hiatus following Zero.
Is there any stopping this juggernaut, or are we looking at the new king of the 1000-crore club?
By its eighth day, the film achieved the unthinkable by surpassing the lifetime worldwide collections of Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Pathaan. Dhurandhar 2 grossed a total of ₹1,067.24 crore worldwide on its second Thursday, according to industry tracker Sacnilk.
Pathaan, on the other hand, raked in a total of ₹1,055 crore during its lifetime run globally. After this, the film is now eyeing the lifetime worldwide box office earnings of Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Jawan and Yash-starrer KGF: Chapter 2.
During its run at the worldwide box office, Jawan made a total of ₹1,160 crore. KGF: 2, on the other hand, made a total of ₹1,215 crore at the global box office.
Back home, the film has neared the ₹700 crore milestone after its daily collections saw a slight growth on Thursday.
Dhurandhar 2 made a total of ₹624.47 crore in its first week and went on to make ₹49.70 crore on its eighth day, taking its total India net collection to ₹674.17 crore and gross domestic collection to ₹805.32 crore.
