Dhurandhar 2 vs. Toxic: A Box Office Showdown

As the March 19 release date approaches, early ticket sales for the North American premieres of Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge and Toxic reveal a significant disparity. Reports indicate that Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar 2 has outperformed Toxic, the eagerly awaited gangster film featuring Yash, in advance ticket sales. The former has already achieved impressive pre-sales figures in the US, while Toxic is still in the early stages of booking. Both films are set to release simultaneously, marking a major box office event in Indian cinema.

In the initial phase of advance bookings in the US, Dhurandhar 2 has shown a remarkable lead, with ticket sales exceeding those of Toxic by more than tenfold. The film has sold tickets across a wider range of locations and shows. Industry experts note that these figures are preliminary, recorded nearly three weeks prior to the release, and the final outcome may shift as both films increase their showings and locations. The effectiveness of promotional efforts and audience reactions in the coming days will be crucial for the opening weekend's success.

According to the latest estimates from Venky Box Office, the Aditya Dhar-directed Dhurandhar 2 has garnered $33,723 in advance sales, translating to 1,953 tickets sold across 151 locations and 209 scheduled shows.

With 17 days remaining for advance bookings, both films are expected to see a significant increase in ticket sales. However, it remains to be seen which film will lead in day one advance bookings.
