Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge Creates Overseas History – Ranveer Singh’s Spy Thriller Shatters Records Without Gulf Release!

Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge Creates Overseas History – Ranveer Singh’s Spy Thriller Shatters Records Without Gulf Release!

Mumbai/New York, April 4, 2026 — Ranveer Singh is on fire! His high-voltage spy-action sequel Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge, directed by Aditya Dhar, has turned into a global sensation at the overseas box office. The film has already raked in approximately Rs 375-379 crore (around $40-41 million) from international markets in just 15 days — and this massive figure comes without any release in the Gulf countries, making the achievement even more extraordinary.

In a jaw-dropping milestone, Dhurandhar 2 has become the highest-grossing Indian film ever in North America, crossing $23.75 million and leaving behind the long-standing record of Baahubali 2: The Conclusion. It has also surpassed the lifetime overseas collection of the first Dhurandhar (Rs 299 crore) in record time and climbed into the top 7 highest-grossing Bollywood films overseas of all time, beating Aamir Khan’s PK.

Explosive Overseas Performance

Despite missing the lucrative Gulf market, the Ranveer Singh starrer delivered one of the biggest opening weekends ever for a Bollywood film abroad — collecting around $22 million internationally. North America alone contributed a thunderous $9.6 million in the opening weekend, landing it at No. 3 on the overall US box office chart that weekend.

Key highlights so far:

  • North America dominance: Crossed $23.75 million (over Rs 215 crore) — the first Indian film to breach the $23 million mark in the US & Canada.
  • Strong holds in UK, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Hong Kong, and even non-traditional territories like Finland, Mexico, Chile, and Eastern Europe.
  • Consistent weekday collections with impressive jumps, proving strong word-of-mouth and repeat viewings among the global Indian diaspora and mainstream audiences.

As of Day 15, the overseas gross stands at Rs 375-379 crore, placing it as the 6th highest-grossing Bollywood film overseas (just behind Jawan and Pathaan). Trade analysts believe it is well on track to enter the Rs 400 crore club internationally and could challenge higher ranks with sustained momentum in the coming weeks.

Massive Worldwide Success

Back home, the film has been equally dominant. India gross has crossed Rs 1,134 crore, taking the worldwide gross to over Rs 1,510-1,523 crore in just 15 days. This makes Dhurandhar 2 one of the fastest films to enter the prestigious Rs 1,500 crore worldwide club.

The sequel has already beaten the lifetime worldwide collection of the first Dhurandhar and is marching towards bigger all-time records. It also holds the distinction of delivering the biggest global opening weekend for any Bollywood film.

What Makes This Run Special?

Industry experts are calling this performance “historic” because:

  • No Gulf release (a traditional stronghold for big Indian films).
  • No China release.
  • Yet, the film expanded into newer markets and still delivered blockbuster numbers.
  • Premium previews in North America were the highest ever for a Bollywood title.
  • Exceptional screen holds (over 80% in many territories) even in Week 2.

Ranveer Singh’s larger-than-life performance, combined with high-octane action, emotional depth, and Aditya Dhar’s slick direction, seems to have struck a chord with audiences worldwide.

Cast & Crew

Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge stars Ranveer Singh in the lead role, with powerful supporting performances by Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, and others. Produced on a grand scale by Jio Studios and B62 Studios, the film is a worthy sequel that ups the ante in every department — from visuals and stunts to storytelling.

What Lies Ahead?

With strong trends continuing and the third weekend approaching, Dhurandhar 2 is expected to push overseas collections closer to Rs 400-450 crore and worldwide totals well beyond Rs 1,800 crore. Many are already wondering if it can crack the top 5 overseas grossers or even challenge Pathaan and Jawan in the long run.

For the Indian diaspora across the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and beyond, this is a proud moment — a big Bollywood film conquering the world on its own terms.

Dhurandhar 2 is not just a movie; it’s a celebration of Indian cinema’s growing global power.
