Team Baahubali Cheers for Aditya Dhar as Dhurandhar 2 Breaks Rajamouli Film's 9-Year-Old North America Box Office Record
Dhurandhar 2 earned over $20.80 million in nine days, breaking Baahubali 2's North American record due to strong hype, repeat viewership, and pan-India appeal.
- Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge became the highest-grossing Indian film in North America, crossing $23 million in just 9 days. The sequel surpassed S.S. Rajamouli's Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, which held the record at $20.2 million since 2017.
- Director Aditya Dhar's spy-action sequel, starring Ranveer Singh, sustained momentum through its second weekend on 987 screens with a $4.9 million gross. Success stems from positive word-of-mouth, repeat viewership, and strong weekday holds never dropping below Rs. 40 crore.
- Jio Studios and B62 Studios reported that Dhurandhar 2 crossed $147.8 million worldwide in just 11 days, surpassing the lifetime collections of the first installment. This demonstrates the sequel's international appeal across approximately 2,200 cinemas.
- Following its record-setting run, the film will expand to Miami, Portland, Seatle, Nashville, Baltimore, Cleveland, and the SF Bay Area next week. Expansions will continue throughout April to capitalize on momentum.
- The film has yet to release in China, where Aamir Khan's Dangal remains the all-time Indian box office champion with $192 million. This leaves significant growth potential for the sequel in the world's largest film market.
