After beating the lifetime box office records of Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal and Rajkummar Rao-Shraddha Kapoor starrer Stree 2, Dhurandhar is now eyeing the collection of Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan, which earned around Rs 1055 crore globally.

The latter earned a strong Rs 26 crore and went on to earn around Rs 15 crore on Friday, while Tu Mera Main Teri Main Tera Tu Meri managed Rs 7.75 crore on Day 1 and, as per early estimates, approximately Rs 5 crore on Friday.

Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar also features Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, Rakesh Bedi, Arjun Rampal, Akshaye Khanna, and Sara Arjun in key roles. Jointly produced by Jio Studios and Aditya Dhar’s B62 Studios, the film hit theatres on December 5. The makers have already announced the sequel, Dhurandhar 2, which is set to release on the big screen on March 19, 2026.

Dhurandhar Movie Update: Ram Gopal Varma said the action in Dhurandhar 'seems real'

RGV further told NDTV, “I’m not trying to demean any film, but the type of action in which people are thrown in the air….

Dhurandhar Movie Update: Drishyam 3 producer explains why Akshaye Khanna exited the film

Kumar Mangat Pathak, in a chat with Bollywood Hungama, claimed that Akshaye Khanna wanted to wear a wig in Drishyam 3. He said, "We had signed an agreement with Akshaye Khanna. His fees also got locked after a lot of renegotiations from his side. He insisted that he would like to wear a wig. But (director) Abhishek Pathak convinced him that it wouldn’t be practical, as it would result in continuity issues since Drishyam 3 is a sequel. He understood his point and agreed to let go of that demand. However, the chamchas around him advised him that he would look smarter if he donned a wig. So, he again requested the same. Abhishek relented and was even ready to discuss this point with him. But then, he informed us that he doesn’t want to be a part of the film at all."

That's a very emotional thing, where he explains, and when he shoots him, it will be just like lifting his arm and giving an injection. That's exactly what I told Ajay when I was shooting."

Dhurandhar Movie Update: Krystle D'Souza calls those comparing her Ayesha Khan 'stupid and immature'

Krystle D'Souza addressed those who are comparing her and Ayesha Khan in 'Shararat' and told News18, "To take that away with one such comment is just stupid and immature. I, in fact, have seen a lot of women making these comments. As women, the least we can do is support another woman. If they can’t support, then they should just keep quiet. We’ve reached a certain stage in our life and by making such comments, you’re dragging the whole race back by years. We should push and build each other. A world filled with supportive women is beautiful."

Enjoy the song and have fun! It’s so sad that in order to praise someone, you drag another person down. I feel sad for people who do this. They don’t understand that everyone has their own talents and share of struggles. We all work hard and try to be consistent year after year."
