Ranveer Singh is walking into his next big-screen moment with serious momentum, and it is showing up where it matters first, on the ticketing charts. With ten days still to go for release, Dhurandhar: The Revenge has already set a new Bollywood benchmark in paid previews through its advance booking surge, setting the stage for what could be one of the biggest openings of the year.
Latest Update: Dhurandhar The Revenge Tops Stree 2 In Paid Previews
As of March 9, 2026, Dhurandhar: The Revenge has sold around 200,000 tickets for paid previews in India, translating to approximately Rs 9 crore nett in pre-release collections. A major chunk of this business is coming from the national multiplex chains, with about 141,000 tickets sold at PVRINOX and Cinepolis, accounting for nearly 80 percent of the total revenue.
That Rs 9 crore paid previews tally means Dhurandhar: The Revenge has surpassed the previous Bollywood record held by Stree 2, which collected Rs 8.75 crore nett in paid previews. The achievement is particularly striking because the film has hit the record without playing a single show yet, and has built this figure on just two days of pre-sales.
With the paid previews milestone now in the bag, attention has shifted to how far the film can push its overall pre-release numbers as more booking windows open for the first weekend. The release date, March 19, 2026, falls around Ugadi and Gudi Padwa, which should help in key markets, even as the day is not positioned as a pan-India holiday.
The Film At A Glance
Dhurandhar: The Revenge is a spy-action thriller directed by Aditya Dhar. The sequel is backed by Jio Studios and B62 Studios, with Jyoti Deshpande and Lokesh Dhar also credited as producers alongside Dhar. Ranveer Singh headlines the film, with the ensemble featuring R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, and Sara Arjun among others. The story continues the Dhurandhar universe, following Singh’s character arc tied to an undercover operation and the criminal world across the border.
