On Day 40 (the sixth Monday) of its theatrical run, "Dhurandhar: The Revenge" registered its biggest dip, earning around Rs 1.05 crore, its lowest single-day collection yet. However, it had performed exceptionally well on the sixth weekend (Saturday and Sunday).
This is natural for a blockbuster that has completed its 40th day. But when we compare the Day 40 (sixth Tuesday) and sixth Monday (Day 39) collections of both films, the first "Dhurandhar" was doing much better. On Day 40, "Dhurandhar" took in Rs 2.60 crore and Rs 2.35 crore on its sixth Monday.
In terms of percentage, "Dhurandhar 2" experienced a sharp 69.1% drop following a strong sixth weekend. In contrast, the original "Dhurandhar" recorded a 10.6% growth on its 40th day compared to its previous day.
In the case of "Dhurandhar 2", most of its revenue was front-loaded earnings in the first few weeks, unlike the original film which was doing strong business even in the sixth week.
Its India net total stands at Rs 1,131.64 crore and India gross at Rs 1,354.52 crore. Globally, it has earned so far Rs 1,779.02 crore, as per box office tracker Sacnilk.
"Dhurandhar 2" is currently chasing the worldwide records of "Baahubali 2" and "Dangal" to become one of the top two highest-grossing Indian films ever.
The original Dhurandhar was notable for being the first Bollywood film to cross the Rs 1,300 crore mark.
Meanwhile, the Ranveer Singh-starrer has officially surpassed the domestic net collection of "Baahubali 2: The Conclusion", but it still trails behind "Pushpa 2: The Rule". It will need another Rs 102 crore to surpass the lifetime domestic net of the Allu Arjun movie.
"Dhurandhar 2" is expected to overtake the worldwide box office collection of "Baahubali 2" by the end of this week.
The combined worldwide total collection for both "Dhurandhar" films has already crossed well over Rs 3,150 crore.
