Dhurandhar box office collection day 45: Ranveer Singh film outshines new releases Happy Patel, Rahu Ketu in seventh weekend

Ever since its release on December 5 last month, Dhurandhar has been dominating the box office and has surpassed the other big releases including Hollywood biggie Avatar Fire and Ash, Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday-starrer romantic comedy Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, Dharmendra's final film Ikkis, and Prabhas' horror comedy The Raja Saab. Now, the Ranveer Singh-starrer and Aditya Dhar-directed spy thriller has even outperformed the latest two comedies - Happy Patel: Khatarnaak Jasoos and Rahu Ketu, that hit theatres last Friday on January 16.

Veteran trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to his social media handles, shared the latest box office numbers of Dhurandhar, and wrote, "Dhurandhar remains an unstoppable force, holding its ground despite multiple new releases – including HappyPatel and Rahu Ketu – hitting the marketplace on Friday. The film has now set its sights on the ₹ 900 cr milestone. With Border2 arriving this Friday, the big question remains: Will #Dhurandhar reach that magical figure? Only time will tell.  Dhurandhar [Week 7] Fri 2.10 cr, Sat 3.60 cr, Sun 4.25 cr. Total: ₹ 879.75 cr. India biz | Official Nett BOC."
