Ranveer Singh is once again showing us why he’s one of the most electrifying stars in Indian cinema. Even before it officially hits theaters, Dhurandhar: The Revenge is already shaking up the box office anticipation game. The film’s advance booking numbers are creating quite a buzz, suggesting that this action-packed spectacle could turn into one of the biggest theatrical events of the year.

The excitement around Dhurandhar: The Revenge has been steadily building for weeks, but the preview advance bookings have taken it to a whole new level. So far, the film has raked in about ₹16.5 crore just from preview bookings, and when you factor in the collections from the South-dubbed versions, that number jumps to over ₹17 crore net. For a film that hasn’t even fully opened its advance booking window yet, these figures are nothing short of explosive.

Mar 6, 2026A big chunk of this momentum is coming from the major cinema chains across India. Reports indicate that around 2.45 lakh tickets have already been sold, bringing in roughly ₹11.5 crore net from these chains alone. Industry insiders are predicting that this number will soon surpass 3 lakh tickets, with a chance of hitting 3.5 lakh before the early preview run wraps up.
What’s even more intriguing is the steady pace at which the film is selling. On average, it’s been adding about ₹1.7 crore to ₹1.8 crore each day in preview sales. If this trend keeps up, Dhurandhar: The Revenge could easily surpass ₹20 crore in previews by the end of the weekend, with a potential of reaching ₹25 crore by early next week.
The scale of the release also shows just how much confidence distributors have in the film. Right now, nearly 8000 shows are already lined up, and that number could climb to over 9000 shows nationwide as the release date draws closer. With such a massive number of screenings, the film has the potential to generate around ₹60–65 crore in preview earnings.
It's quite interesting that the full advance booking window for the main weekend hasn't even opened yet. Right now, audiences are mostly snapping up tickets for preview shows scheduled later in the day, and these are often priced at a premium. Once the regular advance bookings kick off, we'll get a much clearer picture of how the film is likely to perform at the box office.
Another exciting factor fueling the buzz is the fantastic response from international audiences. Early advance bookings overseas have been incredibly strong, with the film already raking in impressive numbers in markets like the United States. This overseas excitement hints that the film might not only take the Indian box office by storm but could also shine in global markets.
The excitement around Dhurandhar: The Revenge is part of a bigger trend in the industry, where large-scale action films are turning into major theatrical events. Ranveer Singh’s dynamic presence on screen, paired with the film’s thrilling storyline and grand production, seems to resonate with audiences even before its release.
For now, everyone is eagerly waiting for the moment when full advance bookings finally open across India. That moment will show us whether the film's current buzz transforms into a massive box office success. If the early indicators are anything to go by, Dhurandhar: The Revenge isn't just set for a strong opening, it might just be gearing up for one of the most explosive box office debuts we've seen in a while.
