‘Dhurandhar’ BEATS ‘Saiyaara’ in the opening day numbers
Outperforming the initial predictions, ‘Dhurandhar’ has already left a strong mark. Interestingly, the movie, which was
only expected to be Ranveer’s highest opener since the pandemic, has beaten 2025’s blockbuster giant ‘Saiyaara.’ This
Mohit Suri film stood as the second-highest opening film of 2025, until ‘Dhurandhar’ made its way. The Ahaan Panday and
Aneet Padda starrer collected Rs 21.9 crore net and Rs 25.75 crore gross in the domestic market. However, Vicky
Kuashal’s epic historical war drama stays undefeated. Enjoying the title of 2025’s highest opening film, it collected 31
crore net and Rs 37.25 crore gross at the domestic box office.
‘Dhurandhar’: Plot and cast
The story of ‘Dhurandhar’ is heavily inspired by multiple true events, which include the Kandahar Hijack and the 26/11
Mumbai terror attacks. Alongside Ranveer Singh, the movie is backed by the stellar performances of Sara Arjun, Sanjay
Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, R Madhavan, Rakesh Bedi, Arjun Rampal, and others. Praising the cast, an excerpt from our review
reads, “Ranveer Singh returns to claim his number one spot in a layered, restrained avatar that plays to his strengths.
His look — long locks, a grungy beard, and a piercing stare — may evoke comparisons to Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal, but the
performance and tone are entirely different. Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal, Rakesh Bedi and Danish Pandor
deliver solid supporting turns that enrich the narrative. Sara Arjun is likeable in her part.” DISCLAIMER: The box
