The upcoming spy thriller Dhurandhar: The Revenge is already creating massive buzz at the box office. Even though full advance booking in India has not yet opened, the film has reportedly crossed ₹60 crore in worldwide advance sales, six days before its release.
Starring Ranveer Singh, the film is scheduled to hit theatres on March 19, 2026, and early trends indicate it could become one of the biggest openings in Indian cinema.
