Third week and still roaring: Dhurandhar’s steady run
Even after completing three full weeks, Dhurandhar is refusing to cool off. The Ranveer Singh-starrer continued to post a steady performance on Day 21, drawing audiences across both multiplexes and single screens. The film’s sustained run is proof that it has connected with moviegoers well beyond the opening frenzy.
How Day 21 looked at the box office
Day 21 showed a healthy mid-week hold for Dhurandhar. While weekday traffic naturally dips compared to weekends, the film managed to retain decent occupancy in the evening and late shows, especially in urban centres and smaller towns where word-of-mouth has been stronger. Overseas screens also reported respectable footfalls, helping the film keep momentum internationally.
Key Day 21 takeaways
- Good holds in metros: Multiplexes in big cities showed consistent footfall for evening shows.
- Strong single-screen run: Smaller centres continued to support the film, where its mass appeal is resonating.
- Word-of-mouth working: Social chatter and audience recommendations are keeping new viewers coming in.
- Overseas traction: The film maintained bookings in key overseas markets, contributing to its overall haul.
Why Dhurandhar is sustaining momentum
Several factors are working in the film’s favour:
- Ranveer Singh’s energy: His performance remains the main draw; audiences are enjoying his trademark intensity and charm.
- Relatable storytelling: The film’s mix of emotion, humour and drama appeals to family audiences and young viewers alike.
- Positive word-of-mouth: Early viewers have been recommending the film, extending its life beyond the initial weeks.
- Strong music and moments: Songs and viral scenes are keeping the film visible on social media.
- Strategic screenings: Good show counts in the right markets helped sustain numbers on weekdays.
How it stacks up against competition
Dhurandhar’s steady third-week performance is noteworthy, especially in a crowded release calendar. While some big releases see steeper drops after the opening weekend, this film has managed a gradual curve, which is often more valuable for long-term box-office health. Comparatively, it’s holding better than several contemporaries that relied mainly on opening-weekend spikes.
Outlook: what’s next for the Ranveer film?
The immediate outlook is positive. If word-of-mouth stays strong and there are no major new screen-stealing releases, Dhurandhar should continue to earn steadily in the coming week. Weekday stability and weekend boosts will be crucial for any major milestones the film aims to achieve.
Final word
Dhurandhar’s third-week resilience underscores one simple truth: a well-loved star plus engaging content and strong audience recommendation can buy a film a long run. Ranveer Singh’s film may no longer be the new release on billboards, but it’s clearly far from done — and cinema lovers seem happy to keep returning.
