No China, No Gulf, No Problem; And A Netflix Deal That Has the Industry Stunned – Dhurandhar Creates Cinema History!

Dhurandhar isn’t just breaking records – it’s demolishing ceilings.

After crossing the historic ₹800 crore mark, Dhurandhar has now entered a far bigger conversation. The film is rapidly marching towards ₹1200 crore worldwide, and in the process, it has already surpassed global box office giants like Jawan (₹1,163.62 crore) and Pathaan (₹1,069.85 crore). That alone would have been enough to cement its legacy – but Dhurandhar isn’t slowing down.

Trade chatter suggests the film is now set to overtake KGF: Chapter 2, positioning itself as the fifth highest-grossing film of all time. If that happens, Dhurandhar will officially sit alongside true all-time titans like Dangal, Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, Pushpa 2: The Rule and RRR. That’s not just elite company – that’s cinema history.

What makes this run even more insane is the context. Dhurandhar achieved these numbers without releases in China or the Middle East, two territories that traditionally inflate global totals for Indian films. This success is powered almost entirely by theatrical footfalls, repeat audiences, and word-of-mouth – a rare phenomenon at this scale.

And the madness doesn’t end at the box office.

In what can only be described as a jaw-dropping deal, Netflix has reportedly acquired the film’s streaming rights for a staggering ₹285 crore. That figure is unprecedented for a Hindi film – but given the demand, the cultural impact, and the film’s unstoppable run, it somehow feels… justified. When audiences love a film this hard, platforms follow.

Dhurandhar is no longer just a blockbuster.
It’s a benchmark, a phenomenon, and a loud reminder of what happens when scale, storytelling, and audience faith collide.

At this point, the question isn’t how big Dhurandhar will get.
It’s how far it’s willing to go.

And this is just the beginning. The sequel is set to release on 19th March 2026. If Dhurandhar has achieved this, one can only imagine the havoc Part II will unleash.
