Dhurandhar: The Revenge Breaks Records Before Trailer Release

The upcoming film Dhurandhar: The Revenge is already making waves, breaking records even before its trailer is unveiled. This spy action sequel, featuring Ranveer Singh and directed by Aditya Dhar, has achieved remarkable success in advance ticket sales at the North American box office. With its release still nearly two weeks away, the film has already outperformed the opening-day earnings of its predecessor, Dhurandhar. The excitement among fans is palpable, and the sequel is poised to set unprecedented box office records.

Dhurandhar 2 Achieves Record-Breaking Advance Bookings

Dhurandhar: The Revenge is experiencing an extraordinary response in the U.S. market. Early tracking indicates that the film has already secured around $301.6K in advance bookings. According to data from box office tracker Venky Box Office, over 18.8K tickets have been sold across 845 shows in 527 locations. Such impressive figures are seldom seen this early for an Indian film overseas. Notably, the film is still 13 days away from its release, and ticket sales are expected to increase significantly in the coming days.

The sequel has already surpassed a significant milestone by exceeding the opening-day figures of the original film. In December 2025, the first installment, Dhurandhar, grossed $317K on its opening day in the U.S.. In a testament to the franchise's popularity, Dhurandhar: The Revenge has already achieved $430K in advance sales, surpassing the original's first-day earnings even before its theatrical debut.

Can Dhurandhar Surpass Animal's North America Record?

The pressing question now is whether this film will challenge the record set by Animal, featuring Ranbir Kapoor, which currently holds the title for the highest premiere pre-sales for an Indian film in the U.S. at over $650K. Industry analysts believe that Dhurandhar: The Revenge has the potential to break this record, especially given the rising demand for tickets and the increasing number of shows being added. Additionally, the delay of Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups, starring Yash, may further enhance the film's prospects.

Trailer Release Date Announced

Meanwhile, anticipation is building among fans as Ranveer Singh recently shared a new poster for the film on social media. He confirmed that the trailer will be released on March 7 at 11:01 AM. In this sequel, Ranveer reprises his role as Hamza Ali Mazari, also known as Jaskirat Singh Rangi, the spy character introduced in the first film. The movie boasts a strong supporting cast, including Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sara Arjun, Danish Pandor, and Rakesh Bedi. Dhurandhar: The Revenge is set to premiere in theaters worldwide on March 19, 2026, and will be available in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam.
