According to the trade website Sacnilk, the action-thriller has maintained high occupancy rates, with Tuesday’s average at 30.70 per cent. Notably, morning shows saw an 18.59 per cent occupancy, which increased to 35.88 per cent by night, reflecting steady audience interest in major city centres.
Dhurandhar accumulated Rs 207.25 crore in its first week and continued its strong run by earning Rs 253.25 crore in its second week. Despite a dip to 16.5 crore on Monday, its lowest daily collection so far, the film rebounded on Tuesday, signalling ongoing public engagement.
