While Avatar 3's release was expected to impact Ranveer's film, Dhurandhar is still drawing heavy crowds in its third week, showing little sign of slowing down.

James Cameron’s Avatar: Fire and Ash was released on December 19 with rave reviews, challenging Dhurandhar’s dominance at the Indian box office. According to Sacnilk, Avatar 3 earned over Rs 20 crore on its opening day. This figure is for all the languages, including Hindi and English.

While Dhurandhar maintained a slight edge with an earning of Rs 22.50 crore on Friday, the race between both films remained intense across major centres. With each film drawing sizeable footfalls, analysts describe the situation as a neck-and-neck battle.

Dhurandhar, which stars Ranveer Singh in a lead role, secured an opening of ₹28 crore opening day. Positive reviews for the performances helped the movie grow further across its first weekend and weekdays.

During its first week, Dhurandhar collected ₹207.25 crore net in India, while the second week total stood at ₹253.25 crore.

Dhurandhar Occupancy Day 15

Hindi shows for Dhurandhar on 19 December recorded about 16.68 percent occupancy in the morning. Afternoon shows rose to around 33.96 percent, indicating healthy growth through the day. The occupancy for evening and night shows stood at 42.86% and 50.28%, as per Sacnilk.

The Dhurandhar wave has spread across India, courtesy of the positive word-of-mouth publicity. While Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 failed to affect the movie, Ranveer Singh-starrer will face intense competition from Avatar: Fire and Ash at the ticket window.

Dhurandhar’s box office collection will now depend on sustaining momentum through the third week and beyond. With a huge total already in place, trade experts are predicting that the movie will beat Pushpa 2's Hindi box office collection in the coming days.
