Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar continues to rewrite box office history. Even after 17 days of its theatrical release, the film shows no signs of slowing down and remains the most dominant Hindi release of 2025 so far. What has surprised trade experts the most is not just the massive numbers, but the consistency with which Dhurandhar has maintained its momentum, even amid a major Hollywood clash. Led by Ranveer Singh, the film has now crossed several career and yearly milestones, firmly placing itself among the biggest Indian box office performers of the year.

Dhurandhar vs Avatar 3: India Box Office Clash Explained
One of the most interesting aspects of Dhurandhar’s run has been its direct impact on Avatar: Fire and Ash in the Indian market. Avatar 3, one of the biggest global franchises, released in India on 19 December and was expected to dominate screens. However, the situation turned out quite differently.
Avatar 3 Opening Day (India): approx. ₹19 crore
Avatar 3 First Weekend (India): ₹66.65 crore
In comparison:
Dhurandhar First Weekend: ₹103 crore
Dhurandhar Third Weekend: ₹95 crore
Even in its third weekend, Dhurandhar nearly matched its opening weekend performance, while also limiting Avatar 3’s growth in the Indian market. Although Avatar 3 continues to lead globally, its India collections have clearly been affected by the strong hold of Dhurandhar.
