Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge Baahubali 2

Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge is on an unprecedented record-breaking spree even before hitting theatres. After smashing the Rs 200 crore mark in worldwide pre-sales, the Ranveer Singh-led action spectacle is now setting new benchmarks in advance bookings at the Indian box office, signalling a historic opening.

Dhurandhar 2 Records Highest Day 1 Pre-Sales In Hindi Cinema Chain

According to Koimoi box office reports, Dhurandhar 2 has recorded the highest Day 1 pre-sales ever for an Indian film at national cinema chains, including PVR INOX and Cinepolis. The film has sold a staggering 685K tickets (including paid previews) for its opening day through advance booking alone, with one more day still to go. Trade trends suggest that the number could comfortably cross 750K tickets in the final tally.

The sequel, much like its predecessor, is witnessing massive traction in multiplexes across metro cities as well as semi-urban centres, driving these exceptional numbers. Within just 24 hours of advance bookings opening, the film had already made headlines by clocking the second-best pre-sales—only to now go one step further and claim the top spot among Indian films.

With this, Dhurandhar 2 has officially surpassed the long-standing record of Baahubali 2: The Conclusion (Hindi), which had sold 650K tickets, a benchmark that remained unbeaten for eight years.

Dhurandhar 2 Surpasses Baahubali 2 In Highest Day 1 Advance Booking

To better understand the scale of this achievement, here’s a look at the top Hindi releases with the highest Day 1 advance booking ticket sales across national multiplex chains:

  • Dhurandhar 2 – 685K tickets (including paid previews) (1 day to go)
  • Baahubali 2 (Hindi) – 650K tickets
  • Stree 2 – 565K tickets
  • Jawan – 557K tickets
  • Pathaan – 556K tickets
  • KGF Chapter 2 (Hindi) – 515K tickets
  • Animal – 456K tickets

To put things into perspective, while Dhurandhar 2 now leads among Indian films, Hollywood’s Avengers: Endgame continues to hold the all-time record with an extraordinary 975K tickets sold in advance for Day 1.

These record-shattering numbers come on the back of the film’s already massive global momentum, with Rs 200 crore in worldwide pre-sales and Rs 100 crore expected from Day 1 alone. With such extraordinary demand and buzz, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, also starring Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, Sara Arjun, and Rakesh Bedi, is all set for a thunderous box office opening when it releases on March 19.

It remains to be seen whether Dhurandhar 2 will surpass the record-breaking performance of the first film, which became the highest-grossing Indian film ever at the domestic box office with over Rs 890 crore, and the fourth highest-grossing Indian film worldwide, earning over Rs 1300 crore. Co-produced by Aditya and Lokesh Dhar’s B62 Studios along with Jyoti Deshpande’s Jio Studios, Dhurandhar 2 features Ranveer Singh alongside Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, R Madhavan, Sara Arjun, and Rakesh Bedi reprising their memorable roles.
