Ranveer Singh Set to Enter Bollywood's 1000 Crore Club with 'Dhurandhar 2' but Falls Short of Shah Rukh Khan's 2023 Record Ranveer Singh is on the verge of becoming the first actor to enter Bollywood's 1000 crore club with his film 'Dhurandhar 2', but he will not surpass Shah Rukh Khan's record from 2023. The action thriller, part of the 'Dhurandhar' franchise, has already crossed 961 crore rupees in net collections within 15 days, positioning it as a strong contender for the milestone. However, even with its success, the film will not break the record set by Shah Rukh Khan in 2023, which remains the highest for a single year by an actor in Indian cinema. Shah Rukh Khan's 2023 performance was historic, as he released three consecutive blockbusters—'Pathaan', 'Jawan', and 'Dunki'—which collectively earned him 1,415.64 crore rupees. 'Pathaan' alone made 543.22 crore, followed by 'Jawan' at 640.42 crore, and 'Dunki' with 232 crore. This achievement solidified his position as the highest-earning actor in a single year, a title he holds despite the current success of 'Dhurandhar 2'. Ranveer Singh's 'Dhurandhar 2' is expected to cross the 1000 crore mark by the third weekend of its release, making it the first film in Bollywood to achieve this feat. If successful, the film will mark Ranveer as the fourth actor to earn over 1000 crore in a single year, joining the ranks of Prabhas (2017's 'Baahubali 2'), Shah Rukh Khan, and Allu Arjun (2024's 'Pushpa 2'). However, the film's earnings will still fall short of Allu Arjun's record of 1,265.97 crore. While 'Dhurandhar 2' is a significant milestone for Ranveer, it will not challenge Shah Rukh Khan's 2023 record. The actor's current earnings from the film are projected to reach over 1000 crore, but this will not surpass the 1,415.64 crore earned by Khan in 2023.#ranveer_singh #dhurandhar_2 #shah_rukh_khan #jawan #pathaan
Dhurandhar: The Revenge Surpasses Previous Bollywood Records in Overseas Markets The Bollywood film Dhurandhar: The Revenge, starring Ranveer Singh, has generated significant international interest, with strong pre-sale figures indicating a promising debut. The United States has emerged as the strongest market, where the film has already secured nearly US$600,000 in pre-sales for the weekend. This includes over US$250,000 for Wednesday previews, US$100,000 for Thursday, the opening day, and additional sales of US$100,000 for Friday and Saturday. These figures surpass the previous record for a Bollywood film, which was held by Jawan with approximately US$300,000 in pre-sales at the same time. Dhurandhar: The Revenge is now nearly doubling that benchmark, with fresh bookings continuing to rise. Based on current trends, the film is projected to exceed US$1 million in U.S. pre-sales, potentially reaching US$1.5 million or even US$2 million. A four-day extended weekend could push the total to close to or surpass US$10 million, a milestone achieved by only three Bollywood films in the U.S. Pathaan holds the record for the highest opening, with US$6.65 million over five days. The film’s performance in the U.S. suggests it could challenge that record, though the absence of the Middle East, where the original Dhurandhar missed its release, may limit its overall total. Australia has also shown strong early support, with the film securing AUD$100,000 in weekend sales, 40-50% higher than Pathaan and Jawan at the same stage. Sales are growing rapidly, and the film is on track to set a new benchmark for the region, potentially reaching AUD$3 million. Canada, where the film’s advance sales have not yet opened, is expected to follow a similar trajectory once the market becomes active.#united_states #ranveer_singh #dhurandhar_the_revenge #jawan #pathaan
