Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar has delivered one of the most surprising box office openings of 2025, prompting several Mumbai theatres to run the film round the clock. Following exceptional demand, cinemas have added multiple post-midnight and early-morning shows, making the film available almost 24 hours a day.
The spy thriller notched an impressive ₹27-crore opening, far surpassing trade expectations of ₹18–20 crore and marking the strongest opening day of Ranveer Singh’s career. The strong word-of-mouth response has encouraged exhibitors to expand show timings across the city.

Strong Box Office Performance
Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar secured ₹27 crore net on day one, making it one of the biggest Hindi film openings of 2025—second only to Chhaava, which opened at ₹31 crore. The film’s advance booking figure of ₹14 crore had initially suggested a more moderate start, but positive public response boosted collections significantly.
There have also been unconfirmed discussions within industry circles about the possibility of inflated numbers through block bookings, though none of these claims have been officially verified.
