The box office has witnessed a phenomenon that can only be described as a tsunami. While Eid has traditionally been the playground for the biggest superstars, the post-COVID era saw a string of underwhelming performers despite having the biggest names from the industry. However, Dhurandhar 2 has brought back the charm of Eid at the box office yet again, with a record that is massive and huge!
Ranveer Singh VS Eid Releases!
With a staggering opening day collection of 145 crore, Ranveer Singh’s spy thriller is not only the biggest Eid opener in the history of Hindi Cinema, it has also delivered a record that none could have imagined! Ranveer Singh’s Eid opening is 81.9% higher than the combined opening day collection of every single Eid release post-COVID.
Dhurandhar 2 Massacres Eid Releases
When you add up the Day 1 total net collection of the last six major Eid releases in Bollywood, the cumulative figure doesn’t even come close to what Dhurandhar 2 achieved in just 24 hours.
Check out the opening day collection of Eid releases post-COVID (India Net Collection).
- Sikandar (2025): 30.06 crore
- Maidaan (2024): 7.25 crore
- Bade Miyan Chote Miyan (2024): 16.07 crore
- Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan (2024): 15.81 crore

Ranveer Singh VS Salman Khan
The combined power of Salman Khan (Sikandar, KBKKJ), Ajay Devgn (Maidaan, Runway 34), and Akshay Kumar – Tiger Shroff (BMCM) resulted in a total of only 79.69 crore. Meanwhile, Ranveer Singh surpassed this number by a margin of 65.31 crore.
Dhurandhar 2 has effectively restored the glory of Eid box office, and it would definitely be eyeing the throne of the biggest Eid release of Indian Cinema now – clearly, Salman Khan’s throne is in danger!
