Dhurandhar earned $25 million globally in its second weekend, out-earning even Wicked: For Good in the same time period.
Dhurandhar started on a promising note at the global box office. In its opening weekend, the film earned just over $17 million ( ₹158 crore), and it looked set for a good run at the box office. Then, Monday arrived, and the film refused to slow down. In its second weekend, the Ranveer Singh-starrer increased its collection numbers from week one, setting new records in Bollywood box office history. This enabled the film to beat international blockbusters at the global box office.
