In 17 days, Dhurandhar has collected over ₹555 crore in India. It has already surpassed the lifetime collection of Animal and Pathaan. Next, in its sight are Jawan, Stree 2 and Chhaava. The movie is performing well overseas also, taking its worldwide gross to over ₹700 crore. At this pace, its is predicted that Ranveer Singh may join the elite list of actors whose films have grossed over ₹1000 crore. Prabhas, Shah Rukh Khan, Yash, Ram Charan, Jr NTR and Aamir Khan are part of this list and Ranveer could be the new entrant.

The great numbers posed by Dhurandhar in its third weekend is despite Avatar 3 opposing it. The Hollywood release grossed ₹66 crore in its opening weekend India and proved to be a competition for Dhurandhar. With another Hindi release - Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri - set to join the fray on Christmas, Dhurandhar is likely to witness another slump as it heads into its third week and fourth weekend.
