In the meantime, the Telugu version has earned approximately ₹18.58 lakh in sales and 7,843 tickets. Competition in the Telugu market is also high so that the slightly poor performance might be due to that.
Pawan Kalyan, an action film, is also entering the theatres on the same day as the release of Dhurandhar 2. Eid, Ugadi and Gudi Padwa are major festivals that coincide with the release date, therefore, there will be several large releases that will compete with each other.

According to trade analysts, the movie has the potential of even beating certain past overseas opening records. At the current trend, the film may turn out to be among the biggest Indian film premieres in the overseas markets.
This high demand in the overseas market is indicative of the rising popularity of Indian cinema in the world and the widening fan base of Ranveer Singh.
Can Dhurandhar 2 Repeat the Success of the First Film?
The antecedents of Dhurandhar 2 are very high since the original film was historically successful. The first film is said to have earned more than 890 crores in India and 1300 crores in the entire world and is thus one of the highest grossing Indian movies of all times.
Director Aditya Dhar is a master of providing hard action dramas and the audience is hoping that the sequel will present a more greater cinematic experience.
Having excellent advance bookings, world-wide talk, and time of release in the festival, the movie already appears to be headed to a strong opening weekend.
