Desk Correspondent , Mumbai - It took Pushpa five years and two blockbuster films to build a ₹2,221 crore franchise. It took Ranveer Singh and director Aditya Dhar just nine days to surpass it. As of Friday, March 28, the ninth day of its theatrical run Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has collected ₹1,140 crore at the worldwide box office, pushing the Dhurandhar franchise's combined total past ₹2,447 crore. The numbers are staggering. The story of how they got there is even more so.
Dhurandhar 2 racks up India Net ₹715.72 crore, Gross ₹854.99 crore (crossing ₹863 crore by Saturday), Overseas $30 million (₹285 crore), and Worldwide ₹1,140 crore, boosting the franchise total with 2025's ₹1,307.35 crore to over ₹2,447 crore, decisively toppling Allu Arjun's Pushpa series (₹350.10 crore Rise + ₹1,871 crore Rule = ₹2,221 crore). Aditya Dhar's espionage finale (after Uri) follows Ranveer Singh's Jaskirat Singh Rangi dismantling a Lyari terror network in Pakistan, launched pan-India in Hindi and South languages for massive reach; Allu Arjun graciously celebrated it as a "blast," lauding Ranveer's versatility, R Madhavan's role, and Dhar's home-run direction. With stellar word-of-mouth and no Hindi rivals, a potent second weekend could propel the duo past ₹2,600 crore combined.
The Dhurandhar franchise has crossed ₹2,447 crore worldwide, surpassed the Pushpa juggernaut, and is still running with no sign of slowdown. Ranveer Singh has delivered what may be the defining performance of his career. And in Allu Arjun's response, the industry was reminded that great cinema, wherever it comes from deserves a standing ovation.
