'Dhurandhar' Crossed ₹3,000 Crore Around the World, Then Opened in Japan to a Turnout Smaller than a Small-Town Shaadi

Trade reports said the big-budget action drama drew fewer than 900 people on opening day despite heavy promotion.

  • On Friday, the big-budget action drama Dhurandhar released across nearly 80 screens in Japan, yet attracted fewer than 900 viewers on its opening day.
  • Actor Ranveer Singh and director Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar franchise has grossed over ₹3,100 crore worldwide, yet the Japanese debut failed to mirror this domestic commercial success.
  • Trade reports indicate the film did not reach Japan's top 25, with only 449 tickets sold across 57 locations by 2 p.m. on the release day.
  • Mirroring the slow start of Pushpa 2, which also drew fewer than 900 viewers on its Japanese opening day, the film highlights challenges for high-profile Indian releases in the country.
  • Extensive promotional campaigns failed to drive audience interest, suggesting global popularity does not guarantee box office success in Japan, even for major releases with high expectations.
