As the “Dhurandhar 2” wave takes over the nation, Bollywood veteran Akshay Kumar has come forward to praise the film’s massive success and the performance of its lead, Ranveer Singh. The high-octane spy thriller, directed by Aditya Dhar, has not only dominated the domestic market but has rewritten history at the global box office.
“No Jealousy, Only Respect”: Akshay on Ranveer’s Performance
Speaking at a recent industry event, Akshay Kumar addressed the buzz surrounding the sequel. When asked about the film’s “angry young man” intensity, Kumar was quick to credit the team for their vision.
“Take a film like Dhurandhar 2—it’s full-blooded action, and the audience has absolutely lapped it up,” Akshay noted. He praised Ranveer Singh’s high-energy portrayal, stating that the actor fits the “intense, chest-thumping action” image perfectly. Addressing whether he felt any regret about not being part of such a massive franchise, the Airlift star added with his signature candor:
“We are a small circle of actors and there is plenty of work for everyone. There’s a bit of regret that you wish you could play such a role, but there’s no jealousy (jalan nahi hoti). I’m genuinely happy to see the industry scale these heights.”
Box Office Tsunami: Breaking Down the Numbers
Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has turned the box office into a battlefield, clearing out previous records set by blockbusters like Jawan and Pathaan. After a historic opening, the film’s four-day extended weekend figures are nothing short of astronomical.
The film has officially crossed the ₹760 crore mark worldwide in just four days, making it the biggest opening weekend for a Bollywood film in history. Trade analysts suggest that at this pace, the ₹1,000 crore milestone is well within reach by the end of its first week.
A New Global Standard
The success isn’t limited to India. Dhurandhar 2 made headlines by becoming the first Indian film to hit the No. 1 spot at the US Box Office, even outpacing major Hollywood releases during its opening weekend.
With Aditya Dhar’s tight direction and a star-studded cast including Sanjay Dutt and R. Madhavan, the film has proven that “rooted, authentic action” is the current flavor of the season. As Akshay Kumar rightly pointed out, the audience’s preference is shifting, and Dhurandhar 2 is currently leading that charge.
