Dhurandhar Nears ₹800 Cr, Ikkis Shows Strong Sunday Growth
Bollywood’s box office is witnessing a historic run as Ranveer Singh’s spy thriller Dhurandhar inches closer to the ₹800 crore mark in India, while Agastya Nanda and Dharmendra’s war drama Ikkis showed strong growth on Sunday, holding its ground against the big hit.
Dhurandhar Nears ₹800 Crore Milestone
Ranveer Singh’s action-packed spy thriller Dhurandhar, directed by Aditya Dhar, continues its dream run at the box office, completing one month in theatres on 5 January 2026. The film is now on the verge of entering the coveted ₹800 crore club in India.
On its fifth Sunday (Day 31), Dhurandhar earned an estimated ₹12.75 crore at the Indian box office, up from ₹11.75 crore on Saturday (Day 30). With this, its total domestic collection stands at approximately ₹772.25 crore, bringing it very close to the ₹800 crore mark.
Dhurandhar Box Office (India) – As of Jan 5, 2026
- Day 31 (Sunday): ₹12.75 crore
- Day 30 (Saturday): ₹11.75 crore
- Total India Collection: ~₹772.25 crore
- Worldwide Collection: ~₹1,186.25 crore
- Next Target: ₹800 crore in India, then surpassing KGF Chapter 2’s worldwide total.
Trade analysts note that Dhurandhar has become the first Indian film to post double-digit collections on 30 out of its first 31 days, a rare feat in Hindi cinema. Its strong weekday and weekend performance has made it the biggest blockbuster of 2025 and one of the highest-grossing Indian films of all time.
Ikkis Shows Strong Sunday Growth
Against the massive wave of Dhurandhar, Sriram Raghavan’s war drama Ikkis, starring Agastya Nanda and the late Dharmendra, has shown resilience at the box office. The film, which released on 1 January 2026, saw a strong Sunday performance.
On its fourth day (Sunday), Ikkis earned around ₹5 crore at the Indian box office, showing growth compared to its Friday and Saturday numbers. With this, its total India collection has crossed ₹20.15 crore in just four days, marking a solid start for a serious war drama.
Ikkis Box Office (India) – First 4 Days
- Day 1 (Thu, New Year’s Day): ~₹7 crore
- Day 2 (Fri): ~₹3.5 crore
- Day 3 (Sat): ~₹4.65 crore
- Day 4 (Sun): ~₹5 crore
- Total India Collection: ~₹20.15 crore
While Ikkis couldn’t match the opening of big commercial films, its gradual growth over the weekend and positive word-of-mouth have helped it hold its own. The film is based on the life of Param Vir Chakra awardee Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal and marks the final on-screen appearance of veteran actor Dharmendra.
Box Office Rundown (Jan 4, 2026)
Here’s how the major films performed on Sunday, January 4, 2026:
| Film | Day | India Collection (₹) | Total India (₹) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dhurandhar (Ranveer Singh) | Day 31 (Sun) | 12.75 Cr | ~772.25 Cr |
| Ikkis (Agastya Nanda, Dharmendra) | Day 4 (Sun) | ~5 Cr | ~20.15 Cr |
| Avatar: Fire and Ash | Day 17 (Sun) | 5.25 Cr | ~174 Cr |
What Lies Ahead
With Dhurandhar now just ₹27–28 crore away from ₹800 crore in India, all eyes are on whether it will become the first outright Hindi film to cross this milestone. If current trends continue, it is expected to surpass the worldwide collections of KGF Chapter 2 in the coming days.
For Ikkis, the focus will be on sustaining its momentum in the coming week and building on its positive reviews. The film’s performance will be closely watched as a test case for serious, content-driven war dramas in the current box office landscape.
