Bollywood's 2025 box office is on fire, and Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar is leading the charge! This spy action thriller has already smashed records, and it's now tantalizingly close to becoming the 5th most profitable Bollywood film of the year. But how close, exactly? Just 8.10 crores away! Let's dive into the details.
Day 27 Update: A New Year's Eve Triumph
Despite the New Year's Eve celebrations, audiences flocked to theaters to experience the magic of Dhurandhar, starring Ranveer Singh and Akshaye Khanna, and co-starring Sara Arjun. On day 27, the film added another impressive 12.40 crores to its collection. This strong performance followed closely on the heels of the previous day's 12.60 crores, demonstrating the film's sustained popularity.
The Numbers Game: Chasing Milestones
The net box office collection in India has now reached a staggering 766.90 crores. Dhurandhar is now aiming for the coveted 800 crore club, a feat never before achieved in Bollywood. Furthermore, it's in a neck-and-neck race with Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2 (which earned 836.09 crores) to potentially become the highest-grossing Hindi film in history!
