Ranveer Singh has rewritten his own box-office history as Dhurandhar detonated with a colossal ₹27 crore net on its opening day, December 5, 2025, demolishing every pre-release prediction that conservatively pegged the spy thriller between ₹15-18 crore and cementing the actor’s most spectacular launch ever after a two-year absence from the big screen.

The adrenaline-charged film, Aditya Dhar-directed spectacle comfortably eclipsed the ₹21.50 crore debut of this year’s romantic juggernaut Saiyaara, surged past the ₹24 crore opening of Padmaavat, and left Simmba’s ₹20.72 crore Day 1 figure far behind, instantly reclaiming Ranveer’s position as one of Hindi cinema’s most bankable superstars with a vengeance.

Released across more than 4,000 screens nationwide, the film registered an impressive all-India Hindi occupancy of 33.81 percent, but the real fireworks began in the evening and night shows when occupancy soared above 55 percent as ecstatic audience reactions and viral social-media clips triggered massive spot bookings and packed houses in multiplexes and single-screen theatres alike.

Delhi NCR reigned supreme with nearly 40 percent attendance across 1,371 shows, closely followed by Mumbai’s powerful 35 percent turnout from 1,024 screenings, while circuits in Gujarat, Rajasthan, Punjab, and the South delivered strong contributions, proving the film’s pan-India appeal and confirming that Ranveer’s star power remains undiminished despite the long gap.

Adding emotional firepower to the triumph, Deepika Padukone took to Instagram to deliver a glowing endorsement, declaring the 3-hour-34-minute epic “worth every minute” and proudly celebrating her husband’s “incredible performance” alongside heavyweights Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, R Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, and breakout star Sara Arjun, ensuring the film’s victory lap continues with unstoppable momentum.
