Dhurandhar 2 advance booking: Sequel earns Rs 180 million, beats Stree 2 for biggest Bollywood premiere record

## Record-Breaking Advance Sales

The highly anticipated sequel, "Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge," has already made waves in the box office with its advance booking sales. The film has amassed Rs 180 million, surpassing the previous record set by "Stree 2." This remarkable achievement was reached just days before its official release, scheduled for March 19.

## Strategic Launch

The film's team strategically opened advance bookings for paid previews on March 18, coinciding with the trailer launch. This move paid off as fans rushed to secure tickets, eager to see the film before its global release. By Sunday, 80,000 tickets had been sold for paid previews alone, contributing Rs 8 crore to the domestic earnings.

## Impressive Ticket Sales

In just 24 hours after bookings began, "Dhurandhar 2" sold 1.2 lakh tickets, generating over Rs 10 crore. The total advance booking revenue has now reached Rs 18.11 crore, with the Hindi version leading the sales. The film's Dolby Cine format also attracted a niche audience, adding to the impressive numbers.

## High Expectations

The sequel is already the sixth highest-grossing Hindi film domestically this year, even before its release. The original "Dhurandhar" was a massive hit, becoming the highest-grossing Indian film domestically and the fourth worldwide. With the return of its star-studded cast, expectations for "Dhurandhar 2" are sky-high.
