Exciting Release of 'Dhurandhar' in Japan

Ranveer Singh's blockbuster film *Dhurandhar* is gearing up for its release in Japan, where it will be known as *Operation Dhurandhar*. The teaser and promotional poster have already been revealed in the country, generating significant buzz.

The film is set to premiere in Japanese theaters on July 10, 2026. This marks another international release for Singh, following the success of his previous films like *Gully Boy*, *Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela*, and *Padmaavat*, which also found audiences in Japan.

**A Record-Breaking Journey**

Directed by Aditya Dhar, *Dhurandhar Part 1* has already made a remarkable impact, grossing ₹1,354 crore globally. The film dominated the box office for over six weeks, breaking multiple records. With its upcoming release in Japan, expectations are high for *Operation Dhurandhar*, which originally debuted worldwide on December 5, 2025. The film features an impressive ensemble cast, including Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, and Sara Arjun.

**Indian Cinema's Success in Japan**

Indian films have previously shown great success in Japan, with S.S. Rajamouli's *RRR* holding the title of the highest-grossing Indian film there, earning ₹139 crore. Other films like *Baahubali 2* have also performed well. The question remains whether *Dhurandhar Part 1* can surpass Rajamouli's impressive record. As *Dhurandhar* continues to lead as the top Hindi film in North America, it has also set records in Canada and Australia. Now, it’s Japan's turn to embrace this growing trend of Indian cinema.
