Dhurandhar Day 6 Box Office: Ranveer Singh’s Spy Thriller Crosses ₹200 Crore Worldwide, Surpasses ‘83’
Ranveer Singh’s much-anticipated spy action thriller Dhurandhar continues its extraordinary run in theatres, emerging as a major global success. The film, featuring Ranveer Singh, Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt and Sara Arjun in pivotal roles, has crossed the ₹200 crore worldwide mark within just six days, solidifying its position as one of 2025’s most impactful releases.
Written, directed and produced by National Award winner Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar has impressed audiences with its gripping narrative, large-scale production and powerful performances. At a runtime of 214 minutes, it is also one of the longest Indian films ever made, yet its pace and storytelling have earned widespread praise from critics and fans alike.
Worldwide Collection and Records Broken
With ₹200 crore already in its account by Day 6, Dhurandhar has officially surpassed the worldwide earnings of Ranveer Singh’s sports drama 83, which collected approximately ₹193 crore globally. This milestone pushes Dhurandhar ahead of Gully Boy in Ranveer’s career rankings, making it one of his highest-grossing films ever.
Industry experts note that the film’s box office momentum remains strong both domestically and internationally. With positive word-of-mouth and solid occupancy, Dhurandhar is expected to maintain its growth trajectory through the week.
About the Film
Dhurandhar is inspired by true events and real covert intelligence missions carried out by RAW. The story follows IB Chief Ajay Sanyal, played by Akshaye Khanna, who initiates an audacious mission to dismantle a major Pakistan-based terror network. Ranveer Singh plays a 20-year-old captive from Punjab who is turned into an undercover operative sent into Karachi’s deadly underworld.
The narrative draws heavily from real operations such as Operation Lyari, the IC-814 hijacking crisis and the 2001 Parliament attack, weaving together geopolitics, national security, and the psychological cost of espionage.
With high-octane action, emotional depth and a richly detailed spy universe, Dhurandhar positions itself as one of Indian cinema’s most ambitious thrillers.
Our Thoughts
Dhurandhar marks a turning point for large-scale Indian spy thrillers, proving that audiences are ready for storytelling that blends realism with cinematic scale. Its Day 6 worldwide milestone of ₹200 crore is not just a commercial win but also a validation of Aditya Dhar’s ambitious vision. With grounded performances, intricate politics and a strong emotional foundation, the film successfully elevates the spy-action genre beyond standard tropes. Ranveer Singh’s portrayal adds intensity, while Akshaye Khanna and R. Madhavan deliver standout performances that enrich the film’s layered narrative. Surpassing the lifetime collection of 83 so quickly indicates strong audience trust and global appeal. If current trends continue, Dhurandhar may emerge as one of the highest-grossing Hindi films of the year. The box office journey ahead looks promising, and the film’s long-term cultural footprint could be even more significant.
