Dhurandhar 2 has made history by dethroning Avatar 2 in South Indian states. It is now the highest-grossing non-South film in that region. The film, featuring Ranveer Singh, has captivated audiences across India.

Since its release, Dhurandhar 2 has grossed Rs 1,353.80 crore worldwide. Within India, its box office collection stands at Rs 1,131.04 crore. This remarkable performance highlights the film’s appeal beyond traditional boundaries.

In South Indian states alone, Dhurandhar 2 has amassed a gross of Rs 297.03 crore. It quickly surpassed Avatar 2, a milestone that underscores its popularity among viewers. Analysts attribute this success to strong marketing and the established Dhurandhar franchise.

The film achieved another significant milestone by selling over 1.78 crore tickets on BookMyShow. This feat illustrates the demand for Dhurandhar 2 and its resonance with fans. Yet, it still faces competition from other blockbuster films like Pushpa 2.

Dhurandhar 2 became the fastest film to cross the Rs 1000 crore milestone at the worldwide box office within its opening week itself. Such rapid growth is rare in the industry and sets a new benchmark for future releases.

Despite its impressive performance, Dhurandhar 2 is still Rs 33 crore shy of surpassing Baahubali 2’s worldwide collection of Rs 1,810 crore. The race for the top spot continues as both films vie for recognition as the highest-grossing Indian films.

The current state of affairs shows Dhurandhar 2 leading in several markets but still facing challenges ahead. Its success story is significant not just for its cast and crew but also for the evolution of Indian cinema.

As it stands, Dhurandhar 2 represents a pivotal moment in box office history, particularly for non-South films in South Indian markets. The coming weeks will reveal if it can maintain momentum or face new challengers.
