There is a huge buzz about Ranveer Singh’s much awaited spy thriller film ‘Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge’. This film will hit the theaters on March 19 and the premiere show will be shown on March 18. You can guess that there is so much excitement among people about the film from the fact that huge advance bookings are being done for the premiere show also. In such a situation, ‘Dhurandhar 2’ can become the biggest worldwide opening film in the history of Indian cinema.
‘Dhurandhar 2‘ did a great job in advance booking itself
Let us tell you that based on the current advance booking trends and trade projections, the film is now targeting to touch the Rs 200 crore mark on the opening day worldwide, including paid premieres. It is noteworthy that the worldwide advance sale for the opening day of ‘Dhurandhar 2’ directed by Aditya Dhar has already reached close to the gross figure of Rs 50 crore.
Additionally, this figure does not yet include first-day pre-sales in India, as full-fledged domestic bookings for the film have not yet started. This tremendous momentum seen in pre-sales gives a hint of the huge demand for the film in both the Indian and foreign markets before its release.
Expected collection of Rs 35+ crore from paid premiere in India itself
According to the current trend, this film can make a gross collection of Rs 35+ crore from paid premiere in India alone. Combined with the already strong international advance bookings, the total worldwide collection from the premiere alone is likely to touch Rs 50+ crore even before the film’s full release. On the first full day (19th March), Dhurandhar 2 is expected to collect a gross collection of Rs 100+ crore in India. Overall, the domestic opening day collection can reach around Rs 150 crore gross, which will be a great achievement for any Hindi film.
Dhurandhar 2 can make Bollywood’s biggest record
Meanwhile, talking about the overseas market, thanks to the strong pre-sales in North America, the film can earn around Rs 50 crore or more from the international market on the opening day. If these predictions prove to be true, then ‘Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge’ could make a historic opening day collection of Rs 200 crore worldwide, making it the first Bollywood film to reach this mark on its opening day and setting a new record for Hindi cinema at the global box office.
Looking at the tremendous response to the pre-sales, and despite the bookings not yet fully starting in India, the opening target of Rs 200 crore seems to be fully achieved. Similarly, there is no big competitor for this film at the box office, except in Telugu states, where Pawan Kalyan’s film ‘Ustad Bhagat Singh’ will dominate the theatres. In such a situation, it remains to be seen whether it is able to score a ‘double century’ on the first day of its release or not.
