Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar Shows Powerful Day 1 Advance Booking Surge – Ranveer Singh’s Action Thriller Sells 42,239 Tickets Across National Chains by 11 PM

Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar, led by Ranveer Singh, continues its impressive march toward release as advance bookings show a sharp and steady rise through the day. By 11 PM, the film has sold 42,239 tickets across national chains (PVR-Inox + Cinepolis), confirming strong audience interest and positioning the film for a powerful opening day.

The film’s momentum, which began with 31,000 tickets sold by noon, escalated rapidly through the evening as IMAX, PLF, and premium-format shows filled up across major metros. Cities like Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Chennai, and Hyderabad have shown consistent strength, while Tier-2 markets such as Pune, Lucknow, Jaipur, Kochi and Coimbatore have added to the late-evening push—indicating broad appeal beyond core metropolitan audiences.

Dhurandhar – Ticket Sales Tracking (National Chains)

The advance booking trend has been rising steadily over the last 48 hours. From 11,000 tickets on November 30th to 13,351 on the afternoon of December 1st, then surging to over 26,000 by the night, the graph has shown clear acceleration. Today’s leap to 42,239 underscores just how strongly the film has caught on with moviegoers.

A major factor driving this momentum is the film’s scale and its ensemble cast. Ranveer Singh headlines the narrative in an intense action role, supported by a powerful lineup featuring R. Madhavan, Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, and the young breakout Sara Arjun. Combined with Aditya Dhar’s reputation post-URI, the film’s espionage-driven plot rooted in high-stakes intelligence operations has amplified pre-release excitement.

The buzz is especially strong in premium formats, where Dhurandhar is benefiting from IMAX and 4DX bookings at a level normally reserved for larger franchise films. Social media chatter, fan excitement, and positive pre-release energy around the trailer and cast have further supported the rise.

With the latest figure of 42,239 tickets by 11 PM, Dhurandhar is firmly on track for a strong Day 1. If the momentum continues into late-night sales and Friday morning spot bookings, the film could surpass early opening-day projections and emerge as one of the strongest non-holiday openers of the year.
