Dhurandhar Overtakes Jawan Worldwide as Week 5 Begins

The month-old spy thriller logged its first single-digit day as an updated cut rolled out to theatres.

Overview

  • Dhurandhar earned ₹8.75 crore in India on day 29, taking its domestic net to ₹747.75 crore and lifting worldwide gross to about ₹1,162 crore, edging past Jawan’s ₹1,160 crore, per Sacnilk-tracked reports.
  • Exhibitors were told to switch to a new DCP from January 1 that mutes words including “Baloch,” with reports split on whether the edits were voluntary under Rule 31 or made following Information and Broadcasting Ministry directives.
  • Ladakh’s administration declared the film tax-free, citing extensive local filming and a push to promote the region’s landscapes.
  • Trade reports say screen allocations are being trimmed to make room for Jio-backed Ikkis, with a significant share of Dhurandhar’s shows reassigned even as the film is expected to lift again over the fifth weekend.
  • The film has sold about 1.3 crore tickets on BookMyShow and an estimated 3.5 crore across India, and has grossed roughly $30 million overseas—including over $18 million in the US—despite bans across Gulf markets.
