Dhurandhar 2 Advance Booking Surge: Mumbai, Hyderabad and Bangalore Face Capacity Issues Amid Massive Ticket Demand

The upcoming action spectacle Dhurandhar: The Revenge is witnessing extraordinary demand even before its release. According to a report published by Bollywood Hungama, the film is already facing capacity issues in several major cities due to massive ticket sales for its upcoming paid preview shows.

With five days still remaining before the paid previews, theatres across India are struggling to keep up with the growing demand from audiences eager to watch the film.

Mumbai, Hyderabad and Bangalore Lead the Booking Frenzy

Industry analysts report that Mumbai, Hyderabad and Bangalore are among the cities experiencing the highest ticket demand.

Current advance booking trends show:

• Mumbai: Around 50% of tickets already sold
• Hyderabad: Nearly 75% pre-sales recorded
• Bangalore: Approximately 60% tickets sold in advance

The demand has reached such levels that many moviegoers are reportedly pressuring exhibitors to open additional shows and advance bookings for the full weekend.

Trade observers say the level of excitement surrounding the film is rarely seen for a Bollywood release.

Phenomenon Compared to Baahubali 2

According to the Bollywood Hungama report, the scale of demand for Dhurandhar 2 is being compared to the phenomenon witnessed during the release of Baahubali 2: The Conclusion.

The film is being described as one of the hottest Indian cinema releases in recent years, with ticket sales rising at an unprecedented pace.

Paid Preview Sales Already Touch ₹27 Crore

Advance booking numbers for the paid previews are already reaching impressive levels.

Reports suggest that:

• ₹27 crore worth of tickets have already been sold for paid previews
• The figure could cross ₹35 crore by release day
• Final preview collections are expected to reach around ₹40 crore

If these projections are achieved, the film will break the previous Bollywood preview record held by Stree 2, which had collected around ₹10 crore in paid previews.

Massive Sales in Multiplex Chains

In the national multiplex sector, Dhurandhar 2 is already posting remarkable numbers.

Across the top three multiplex chains in India, the film has:

• Sold 2.60 lakh tickets for paid previews so far
• Expected to reach 3.50 lakh tickets before release

Trade experts believe this could become a record benchmark for preview ticket sales in Indian cinema for years to come.

What Happens Next?

With advance bookings for the full opening weekend expected to open soon, all eyes are now on how the film performs in the coming days.

Given the current pace of ticket sales and audience excitement, Dhurandhar: The Revenge could be heading toward one of the biggest openings in Indian film history.
