The Indian film industry has a new box-office milestone as Dhurandhar has officially surpassed KGF: Chapter 2 to become the fifth-highest grossing Indian film of all time. The achievement marks a significant moment for contemporary Indian cinema, reflecting the film’s massive appeal across domestic and international markets.
Since its release, Dhurandhar has witnessed an extraordinary run at the box office, driven by strong advance bookings, packed theatres, and sustained word-of-mouth publicity. The film’s earnings crossed the lifetime global collection of KGF: Chapter 2, a record-holder that had dominated the charts with its pan-India success and overseas performance.
Trade analysts attribute Dhurandhar’s success to its gripping storyline, large-scale production values, and powerful performances, which resonated strongly with audiences across regions and languages. The film also benefited from a wide release strategy and repeat viewership, helping it maintain momentum even weeks after its opening.
With this latest milestone, Dhurandhar now ranks among the top-grossing Indian films in history, placing it alongside some of the biggest blockbusters the industry has ever produced. Its rise further highlights the growing global reach of Indian cinema and the increasing appetite for high-budget, content-driven spectacles.
As box-office numbers continue to be updated, industry watchers are keen to see whether Dhurandhar can climb even higher in the all-time rankings, potentially challenging films positioned above it in the coming weeks.
