Dhurandhar's Box Office Triumph: A Global Sensation
Ranveer Singh's latest blockbuster, Dhurandhar, is making waves at the box office, with its worldwide gross nearing an astonishing 1200 crore. The film's international appeal is evident, as it approaches the USD 30 million mark, a feat that's even more impressive considering the absence of its release in Middle Eastern territories and Bangladesh. This unique distribution strategy has contributed to its success, as it ranks as the third-highest-grossing Bollywood film overseas, behind Jawan and Pathaan.
The film's performance in key markets is remarkable. In the United States, Australia, and Canada, Dhurandhar has achieved industry-best results, becoming the highest-grossing Indian film in these countries. It currently holds the fourth position in the United Kingdom, and has outperformed Pathaan in territories like Thailand and Hong Kong. Europe, initially slow, has delivered strong final numbers, showcasing the film's ability to resonate with diverse audiences.
