With this achievement, Dhurandhar has surpassed the lifetime collection of Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR’s YRF spy universe film War 2 ( ₹364.35 crore).

Given the film’s current pace, Dhurandhar is expected to surpass Rajinikanth’s film by the end of its second week.
About Dhurandhar
Helmed by Aditya Dhar, the spy action thriller draws inspiration from real-life geopolitical events such as the 1999 IC-814 hijacking, the 2001 Indian Parliament attack, the 2008 Mumbai attacks, the 2012 fake currency crisis, covert operations by R&AW under Operation Lyari, and crackdowns on criminal syndicates.
The film stars Ranveer Singh as Indian spy Hamza Ali Mazari, Akshaye Khanna as the brutal Pakistani gangster Rehman Dakait, R. Madhavan as Ajay Sanyal, Director of the Intelligence Bureau, Arjun Rampal as Major Iqbal of the ISI, and Sanjay Dutt as SP Chaudhary Aslam. The film also features Rakesh Bedi, Sara Arjun, Danish Pandor and Gaurav Gera in key roles.
While the film received praise for its direction, ensemble cast performances, action sequences, music and world-building, it was criticised for its lengthy runtime. However, strong word-of-mouth has significantly boosted its box office performance.
