Dhurandhar: The Revenge, an action thriller with an illustrious cast led by Ranveer Singh, has already garnered an impressive response from advance bookings that denote a strong opening weekend when it releases on March 19th, 2026, at the domestic box office. Advance ticket sales have already exceeded 2.6 lakh tickets sold across India. This means that over ₹21 crore has been generated for the pre-sale of screening and premiere tickets.
In fact, a paid preview is scheduled for March 18th, and those tickets have already sold out. The excitement for the film comes from fans looking forward to seeing Ranveer Singh reprise his role as Hamza Ali Mazari, who proved to be a huge success in the previous film.
The trailer released earlier this month has also greatly contributed to this level of excitement and resulted in accelerated sales after only a couple of days since it was released. According to trade sources, advance booking was at a rapid pace immediately following the release of the trailer across all major multiplex chains and online ticket sales sites.
The ticket prices for the film have reportedly been high in multiple locations. In some cases, prices at premium multiplexes have reportedly exceeded ₹2,900–₹3,100, yet many shows are still filling quickly despite high prices. This indicates that audiences may be willing to pay excessively for what could be described as an amazing visual experience when presented in large format.
With global advance ticket sales exceeding 2.75 lakh tickets, expectations of a blockbuster opening weekend are extremely strong. With the current momentum, analysts believe that this could involve a new record for paid preview sales.
Online discussions regarding the actor’s intense transformation and high-octane action from the trailer have started to trend with fans excited to see how the story unfolds this time. The franchise effect has had a great impact on this audience, as those who liked the first film are now coming out in droves to watch the next installment.
Another interesting trend that has been noticed is that there is a significant amount of demand for runs in the cities of Mumbai, Delhi, and Bengaluru, where many of the prime-time slots are filling up very quickly. Many multiplex chains are even adding additional late-night and early morning shows due to this ongoing increase in demand. If the current level of advance ticket sales continues over the next few days, it is possible that Dhurandhar – The Revenge will open to one of the largest box office openings of the year.
Dhurandhar: The Revenge is a sequel to the 2025 film Dhurandhar and is directed by Aditi Dhar. It features a stellar cast including Ranveer Singh, Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, and Arjun Rampal. With strong advance bookings, the buzz on social media about Dhurandhar: The Revenge is growing. Everyone is waiting to see if the movie can convert its pre-release hype into record-setting opening-day numbers.
