Ranveer Singh and director Aditya Dhar’s blockbuster Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge continues its phenomenal run at the box office, edging closer to rewriting history.

As of Day 39, the film has reportedly collected:

• India Net: ₹1,130.59 crore
• Worldwide Gross: ₹1,777.52 crore

This puts it just ₹11 crore short of surpassing the legendary Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (₹1,788.06 crore worldwide), one of the highest-grossing Indian films of all time.

📈 Strong Sixth Weekend Holds Momentum

Even in its sixth week, Dhurandhar 2 is showing remarkable stability:

• Friday: ₹1.55 crore
• Saturday: ₹3 crore
• Sunday: ₹3.25 crore
• Weekend Total: ~₹7.95 crore

These numbers highlight sustained audience interest, a rare feat for films deep into their theatrical run.

🏆 Historic Milestone Within Reach

If the current trend continues:

• The film could surpass Baahubali 2’s worldwide record within days
• It may cross the ₹1,800 crore global mark shortly after
• It is already among the top-grossing Indian films globally

The coming weekdays will be crucial—especially if collections stay above ₹1 crore per day.

📊 Day 39 Performance: Among the Best

With its Day 39 collection, Dhurandhar 2 has:

• Achieved one of the highest late-run collections in Hindi cinema
• Reportedly ranked second-highest Day 39 performer, behind Stree 2
• Outperformed films like:
  • Jawan
  • Pushpa: The Rule – Part 2 in similar stages

🎟️ Occupancy and Audience Response

Despite reduced screens in some regions, the film continues to attract viewers:

• Strong occupancy in afternoon and evening shows
• Consistent footfall across multiplexes and mass circuits
• Positive word-of-mouth sustaining long-term performance

🎬 What’s Driving the Success?

Several factors are contributing to the film’s blockbuster run:

• Ranveer Singh’s high-energy performance
• Aditya Dhar’s mass-appeal direction
• Strong sequel hype and franchise value
• Wide pan-India and global appeal

⚠️ Final Verdict: Can It Dethrone Baahubali 2?

• Needs roughly ₹11 crore more globally
• Likely to achieve the milestone within the next few days if trends hold

✅ Key Takeaways

• Dhurandhar 2 worldwide collection: ₹1,777.52 crore

The final Friday of April brought a fresh Bollywood release with Ginny Weds Sunny 2 hitting theatres. However, the romantic comedy struggled to make a mark on its opening day, while Bhooth Bangla, starring Akshay Kumar, continued its steady box office performance in its second week.

🎬 Ginny Weds Sunny 2 – Day 1 Collection

Directed by Prasshant Jha, the film marks the first on-screen pairing of Avinash Tiwary and Medha Shankr. Despite the fresh casting, the film had a disappointing opening.

• Day 1 Collection: ₹30 lakh
• Total Shows: 1,199
• Overall Occupancy: 8%

Occupancy Breakdown:

• Morning: 3.69%
• Afternoon: 5.62%
• Evening: 8.69%
• Night: 9.31%

The film is a sequel to the 2020 hit Ginny Weds Sunny, which starred Yami Gautam and Vikrant Massey. The new installment follows a professional wrestler whose life changes after meeting a cheerful young woman, blending romance with personal transformation.

Despite its light-hearted premise, the film failed to attract significant footfall on its opening day.

👻 Bhooth Bangla – Day 8 Collection

On the other hand, Bhooth Bangla, directed by Priyadarshan, continues to perform well at the box office.

• Day 8 Collection (Second Friday): ₹5.75 crore
• India Total: ₹90.15 crore
• Worldwide Total: ₹144.70 crore

The horror-comedy saw slight growth compared to the previous day and comfortably outperformed the opening-day numbers of Ginny Weds Sunny 2. Its consistent performance indicates strong audience interest and positive word-of-mouth.

📊 Box Office Verdict

• Ginny Weds Sunny 2 has had a weak start and will need strong weekend growth to stay relevant.
• Bhooth Bangla remains the dominant film at the box office, maintaining momentum even into its second week.
