Dhurandhar box office collection crosses ₹200 crore on day 6

(Web Desk)- Dhurandhar box office collection has crossed ₹200 crore, since its release on December 5, 2025 (Friday).

Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar is an Indian spy thriller centered on Hamza Ali (Ranveer Singh), an agent tasked with dismantling a terrorist network in Karachi led by the notorious Rehman Dakait (Akshaye Khanna)

In just six days, Dhurandhar has raked in a staggering ₹200 crore, challenging the records of blockbusters like Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani, Bajirao Mastani, and Simmba.

It is also expected that Dhurandhar will surpass the worldwide collection of Ranveer Singh’s ‘Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela’, which earned around ₹218 crore.

The story of the movie unfolds in chapters, blending espionage, revenge, patriotism, and the moral ambiguity of heroism and villainy.

It is important to mention here that Dhurandhar Part 2 is scheduled for release on March 19, 2026, while the first installment is expected to stream on Netflix after its theatrical run.

Despite Dhurandhar’s commercial success, the movie has stirred a heating debate for its controversial storyline.

Pakistani reviewers have criticized the film as exaggerated propaganda, while Indian journalist Arifa Khanum Sherwani called it a dangerous mix of majoritarianism, anti-Muslim prejudice, and misogyny, citing graphic violence and questioning the censor board’s approval.

The portrayal of former Pakistani Prime Minister ‘‘Benazir Bhutto’’ without proper context also drew objections from Pakistani authorities.

The spokesperson for the PPP, Sumeta Afzal Syed stated: “The newly released Indian film Dhurandar has unlawfully used images of Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto and disgracefully attempted to portray the PPP as sympathetic to terrorists.”

On the flip side, some audiences have praised the film’s cultural representation, particularly the rare depictions of Balochi dance, music, and traditions, which add a visually compelling layer to the politically charged narrative.
