Dhurandhar: The Revenge continues its solid pre-sale record at the box office. As of Tuesday morning in the US, the spy action drama has crossed the USD 2 million mark in advance sales, with a strong first weekend sales spread. Just three days ago the film had crossed the US$1 million mark and now it has doubled that mark. Since the trailer launch, the momentum that Dhurandhar 2 has created is unprecedented.
Sales breakdown: The Wednesday premiere brought in about US$700,000, while the Thursday opening day brought in about US$300,000. The top spots are already at very high occupancy rates, leading to a sales boom over the weekend. The film is close to US$400K on both Friday and Saturday, while Sunday is over US$200K.
There are still eight days left for the premiere and the way the momentum is going, the Ranveer Singh starrer is now very close to touching the US$4 million mark. The top pre-sales of Indian films in the United States were of Baahubali: The Conclusion, RRR, and Kalki 2898 AD, which were worth more than US$4 million. Dhurandhar: The Revenge will be joining them. It may or may not beat them in terms of money, but it will definitely beat them in terms of ticket sales, that too by a huge margin. Originally, those films had huge premieres, about US$30 for the ATP, then more than US$20 for the rest of the weekend. On the other hand, Dhurandhar: The Revenge is selling at standard rates of around US$14-15. Even at the same earnings as those three, its ticket sales will be 50-75 percent higher, and of course, it could be even higher.
That said, the film directed by Aditya Dhar has the potential to gross over US$10 million in its opening weekend alone, which would set a rare record for Bollywood films in the North American markets. Notably, only three Hindi language films could reach this milestone in their entire theatrical run; Dhurandhar 2 aims to achieve this with its weekend debut.
