Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar Opens Strong With 11,000 Tickets Sold Across National Chains by 10 PM - Ranveer Singh Starrer Shows Solid Day 1 Momentum
Dhurandhar, directed by Aditya Dhar and starring Ranveer Singh in the lead role, has opened to an encouraging initial response at the national box office. As per industry tracking, the film has sold approximately 11,000 tickets across major national chains such as PVR-Inox and Cinepolis by 10 PM IST, indicating strong audience intent ahead of the first show.
The film’s Day 1 advance booking has crossed the 65,000 ticket mark, showcasing robust early momentum. Premium formats like IMAX and 4DX have reported exceptional interest, especially in urban multiplexes. The trend is currently tracking upward, with trade projections estimating the opening day collection to be in the range of ₹18–22 crore, subject to sustained spot booking activity in afternoon and evening shows.
Early performance has been particularly promising in metro circuits such as Bengaluru and Chennai, where Ranveer Singh’s appeal and the emotional undertone of the narrative are resonating well. Delhi-NCR and Mumbai are also showing solid traction, with booking momentum expected to accelerate closer to evening showtimes.
The strong start is attributed to several key factors: Ranveer Singh’s high-energy performance, the film’s impactful promotional material, and Aditya Dhar’s credibility following the success of Uri: The Surgical Strike. Additionally, the emotionally charged and action-driven trailer has sparked notable social media engagement, positioning Dhurandhar as one of the most anticipated action dramas of the season.
While the film is not a holiday release, the combination of strong early bookings, rising audience interest and impressive word-of-mouth anticipation suggests a potentially powerful opening. Afternoons and evening shows will be critical in determining the final Day 1 figure, but as things stand, Dhurandhar is well on track for a remarkable debut.
