The numbers don’t lie — and right now, they’re screaming. With six days still to go before the paid previews even begin, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has already rewritten Bollywood’s advance booking rulebook. This isn’t just a big film. This is an event.
The Advance Booking Numbers — Broken Down
As of March 12 (10 PM), Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge sold around 238K tickets in the top two national chains — PVRINOX and Cinepolis — for its Wednesday paid previews, with the 240K mark expected to be crossed by the following morning.
The film’s total national chain capacity stands at over ₹55 crore nett, which is expected to climb to over ₹65 crore eventually — giving it a realistic shot at crossing ₹30 crore nett from paid previews alone.
These sales have already propelled Dhurandhar 2 past Stree 2 to become the highest-grossing Bollywood title for preview shows — a landmark that underlines the franchise’s extraordinary mass appeal. Wikipedia

Why This Opening Is Historic
In anticipation of massive demand and the film’s near four-hour runtime, national multiplex chains introduced a brand-new ticket pricing category called Super Blockbuster Plus — a premium tier above the existing Blockbuster and Super Blockbuster rates.
The North American market is equally on fire — with advance sales surpassing $400,000 across 542 locations for premieres, while the total first-weekend advance in the USA has already crossed the $1 million mark.
The box office dynamics for Dhurandhar 2 are further aided by Toxic (Yash) moving to June 4 — clearing the March 19 Ugadi/Gudi Padwa window for Ranveer Singh’s spy epic to dominate screens without a heavyweight rival.
Based on current pace, the film is headed to record 350K admissions in national chains for Wednesday previews — possibly approaching 400K if the final stretch holds strong. Outlook India
