Dhurandhar: Ranveer Singh achieves biggest single-day box office of his career
Ranveer Singh’s new release “Dhurandhar” has unleashed a storm at the Indian box office, bringing in the highest ever single-day collection for the actor. This is not only a big box office victory but also a major career milestone, more so at a time when Hindi cinema struggles to get the audience back to the cinemas.
Below is a deep, detailed, long-form breakdown of why this is such a big moment, how the film accomplished that feat, what it means for Ranveer Singh’s career, and how the movie is trending nationally and globally.
⭐ 1. What is Dhurandhar? — A Film Designed for Mass Appeal

Mass action spectacle
High-scale cinematography
A plot with revenge in its core
Ranveer Singh in a rugged, larger-than-life avatar.
The word “Dhurandhar” itself signifies a mighty, powerful, unstoppable personality, something that is so strongly reflected in the main character of Ranveer, shown fighting against corruption, crime syndicates, and personal tragedy.
The film was marketed as Ranveer’s most intense and transformative performance in years.
- ⭐ Record-Breaking Single-Day Box Office — What Happened?
