Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar is quietly putting together an extraordinary overseas run, and it is now on the verge of creating a major box office milestone in North America. The film is just about 750 thousand dollars short of entering the top three highest grossing Indian films of all time in the region.
What makes this run stand out is not just the numbers but the consistency. Dhurandhar did not rely only on a massive opening weekend. Instead, it has shown strong holding power, driven largely by word of mouth and repeat audiences. The film continues to draw viewers week after week, which is what has pushed it so close to this historic bracket.
North America has traditionally been a tough market for Indian films outside of the biggest franchise spectacles or star-driven tentpoles. Dhurandhar has managed to cut through that clutter, says a lot about its reach and resonance. Ranveer Singh’s performance, in particular, has been a major talking point among audiences overseas, with many praising both his physical transformation and the emotional depth he brings to the role.
Entering the top three would place Dhurandhar in an elite club, alongside only a handful of Indian titles that have ever achieved that level of success in the US and Canada. For the film, it is not just about commercial bragging rights but about validation that a strongly rooted Indian story can travel globally and still find acceptance.
At this point, the question is no longer if Dhurandhar will reach that milestone, but when. With its current pace and continued audience interest, the film seems well-positioned to close that remaining gap very soon.
If it does, Dhurandhar will not just be remembered as a domestic blockbuster but as one of the most successful Indian releases ever in the international circuit. And for Ranveer Singh, it will mark yet another defining chapter in a career that continues to evolve and surprise.
