Dhurandhar: The Revenge is rewriting box office history in Australia with a phenomenal run that has left the industry stunned. After becoming the first Indian film to enter the prestigious A$6 million club in the region, the Ranveer Singh starrer has now crossed the A$7 million mark — a truly historic achievement that cements its position as the highest-grossing Indian film ever in Australia.
Record-Breaking Performance in Just 16 Days
In an extraordinary feat, Dhurandhar 2 has grossed an outstanding A$7.15 million in just 16 days. This sensational performance firmly establishes the sequel as a blockbuster in the overseas market, surpassing all previous benchmarks set by Indian cinema down under.
The film has not only met expectations but has shattered them, setting a new standard for Indian films in the Australian market. Its massive collections reflect strong word of mouth, exceptional repeat audience support, and sustained demand across multiple locations in the region.

What’s Driving the Dhurandhar Australia Success?
The sequel’s success in Australia can be attributed to multiple factors. The first film had already created history as the first A-rated Indian film to gross over ₹1000 crore globally, establishing a massive fan base that eagerly awaited the continuation of Ranveer Singh’s spy saga.
Australia’s significant Indian diaspora, particularly the strong presence of Hindi and Telugu-speaking communities, has played a crucial role in the film’s record-breaking run. The action-packed screenplay, high production values, and the franchise’s growing reputation as India’s answer to global spy franchises have all contributed to its unprecedented performance in the region.
With the film still running in select locations and maintaining strong occupancy rates, industry experts believe Dhurandhar 2 could potentially cross the A$7.5 million mark before concluding its theatrical run in Australia.
