'Dhurandhar 2' Breaks *Baahubali* Record: *Dhurandhar 2* has unleashed a tsunami at the box office that shows no signs of slowing down. Released in theaters on March 19, the film has been out for a mere 10 days; yet, in this short span, it has already shattered the records of several major films. *Dhurandhar: The Revenge* crossed the ₹1,000 crore mark in worldwide box office collections within just one week of its release. Propelled by these phenomenal earnings, the Dhurandhar franchise has emerged as the biggest blockbuster in global box office history to date, having grossed over ₹2,500 crore.

With the tremendous success of both installments, this franchise has now made history.

It has set a record that even the biggest superstars will have to work extremely hard to break.
