Key Points
'Dhurandhar: The Revenge' has recorded Rs 75 crore in worldwide collections from its March 18 preview shows, the highest-ever for an Indian film.
Mumbai, Mar 19: 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge', directed by Aditya Dhar and starring Ranveer Singh, has recorded Rs 75 crore in worldwide collections from its preview shows, according to trade tracker Sacnilk.
The film held preview screenings on March 18 ahead of its theatrical release on March 19. The reported figure marks the highest preview-day collection for an Indian film so far.
However, cancellations and delays of several early shows in India may lead to refunds for ticket holders, which could affect the final numbers.
Mixed Critical Response, Strong Audience Buzz
Early reviews for the nearly four-hour-long film have begun to emerge, with audience response largely positive.
Film critic Shubhra Gupta gave the film two stars, stating it “lacks the ‘mazaa’ (fun) of the original despite blood and bazookas.”
At the same time, several film personalities, including Allu Arjun, Shilpa Shetty, Preity Zinta and Madhur Bhandarkar, have praised the film.
Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma described it as “Sholay X 100.”
Strong Day 1 Box Office Momentum
The film is expected to cross Rs 50 crore on its opening day in India.
As of 4pm, it had earned Rs 45.14 crore domestically, according to Sacnilk, despite multiple show cancellations in regional languages due to censor delays and technical issues.

Advance Sales Signal Big Opening Weekend
Sacnilk estimates that the film’s worldwide pre-sales for the opening weekend have crossed Rs 250 crore, with India contributing around Rs 160 crore gross.
More than Rs 100 crore is expected to come from opening day pre-sales alone at the domestic box office, indicating strong demand.
Given the early trends, 'Dhurandhar: The Revenge' is very likely to surpass the first week collection record of 'Border 2' (244.97 Crore). It can be mentioned here that 'Dhurandhar' had collected 207.25 crore in its first week of release.
Audience Ratings Remain High
On BookMyShow, the film has received over 24,000 user ratings, with a majority awarding it 10 out of 10 and calling it a blockbuster.
The film currently holds an average rating of 9.5 out of 10 on the platform. Some users, however, have rated it 5 out of 10, describing it as a one-time watch.
