Dhurandhar Day 57: Ranveer Singh's Spy Juggernaut Refuses to Slow Down Despite Netflix Debut & Border 2 Storm

The box office journey of Dhurandhar is nothing short of a cinematic miracle. As the film enters its 9th Friday (Day 57), it continues to rake in the moolah, recording a steady collection of ₹0.25 Crore. While most films lose their breath by the fourth week, this Aditya Dhar-directed spy thriller is proving that it has a never-say-die attitude, even in the face of massive digital and theatrical competition. What makes this Day 57 performance truly extraordinary is the timing. Dhurandhar officially began streaming on Netflix on January 30 (yesterday). Conventionally, the moment a blockbuster hits an OTT platform, its theatrical occupancy crashes to zero. However, the Dhurandhar Craze is so intense that audiences are still choosing the big-screen experience over the comfort of their couches. The film is currently trending at No. 1 in India on Netflix, yet the ticket counters at multiplexes remain busy, showing the immense repeat value of this Ranveer Singh starrer. The resilience of the film is further highlighted by the ongoing Border 2 juggernaut. Despite Sunny Deol's war epic dominating the majority of screens and capturing the patriotic pulse of the nation, Dhurandhar has managed to retain its own dedicated audience. It is rare to see two massive films of the same genre—high-octane action and patriotism—co-existing so successfully. While Border 2 is bringing in the masses, Dhurandhar is sustaining its legacy as a long-term blockbuster. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   To put this ₹0.25 Crore Day 57 collection into perspective, one must look at the historical benchmarks. When compared to the biggest industry titans at the same stage of their release, Dhurandhar stands tall. On their 57th day, legendary hits like Jawan and Dangal were struggling to stay above the ₹0.05 Crore mark. Even the mighty Baahubali 2 (Hindi) had slowed down to approximately ₹0.10 Crore by its 9th Friday. By earning double those figures, Dhurandhar has officially entered the league of the most consistent long-run performers in Indian cinema history. The film's dominance isn't just restricted to the Indian borders. As per the latest streaming data, #Dhurandhar is trending in multiple countries worldwide. It has secured the No. 1 spot in India, No. 7 in Qatar, and No. 8 in Bahrain. The surge in Middle Eastern markets is particularly noteworthy; since the film faced theatrical restrictions in certain Gulf regions due to its bold geopolitical narrative, fans in those countries are now flocking to Netflix to finally witness the spectacle. As it stands, Dhurandhar is no longer just a movie; it is a cultural phenomenon. With its combined success on the big screen and its explosive debut on Netflix, the film is on track to set a Total Gross record that might remain unbeaten for years to come. Whether it's the 70mm screen or the smartphone screen, the world is currently under the spell of the Dhurandhar wave.

Dhurandhar Global Rampage: Ranveer Singh’s Thriller Hits No. 1 In 10 Countries On Netflix; Star Gold Acquires Satellite Rights

Ranveer Singh's geopolitical action-thriller Dhurandhar continues its record-breaking journey. After shattering box office records with a historic ₹1,303 crore worldwide gross, the film has now officially taken over the digital world. Released on Netflix on January 30, 2026, the Aditya Dhar directorial is on a Global Rampage. According to FlixPatrol data from early February 2026, Dhurandhar entered the global Top 10 within 48 hours of its digital debut. It held the No. 8 and No. 9 positions worldwide during its opening weekend, making it the highest-trending Indian title globally at the moment. The film has successfully entered the Top 10 in 32 countries, including major international markets such as Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States, where it hit the charts on its very first day of streaming. One of the most significant highlights of Dhurandhar's OTT run is its dominance in the Middle East and Pakistan. It is currently the No. 1 movie in 10 countries: India, Pakistan, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Maldives, Mauritius, Kuwait, and Oman. This achievement is particularly noteworthy because the film was theatrically banned in several of these regions, including Pakistan and several Gulf countries, due to its sensitive geopolitical themes. However, borders seem to have been erased on the digital platform, as the film holds the Top 5 position in 23 more countries across the globe. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Adding another feather to its cap, the television satellite rights for Dhurandhar have been officially acquired by Star Gold. Given the film's massive popularity and its status as a mass-entertainer with a strong patriotic core, the satellite deal is reported to be one of the highest for a Bollywood film in recent years. This ensures that after its Netflix run, the film will reach a massive audience across the Indian heartland via television. Ranveer Singh: Box Office & Digital Track Record 1. Dhurandhar (2025): All-Time Blockbuster (First Ranveer film to breach the ₹1,000 Crore Worldwide mark) 2. Dhurandhar (Netflix): Global Hit (Ranked No. 9 Worldwide and No. 1 in 10 countries within 48 hours) 3. Simmba (2018): Blockbuster (Remains a massive television favorite on Star Gold) 4. Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani (2023): Hit (Proved his mettle in the family-drama genre globally) The massive success of the film on both big and small screens has further fueled the hype for its sequel.With charts conquered and borders erased, Dhurandhar has officially established itself as a worldwide force, setting a massive foundation for the upcoming franchise expansions.

Golmaal 5 Update: Akshay Kumar Joins Ajay Devgn-fronted Comedy Entertainer As Antagonist

Mumbai, February 2 - In what could be one of the biggest casting coups, Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar has reportedly joined director Rohit Shetty's Golmaal 5, headed by Ajay Devgn. Interestingly, the actor has been cast to play the lead antagonist, according to Variety India's report. Golmaal is one of the biggest Bollywood franchises, and it is said that the upcoming film delves into fantasy elements, offering a fresh narrative and expanding beyond the usual prank-driven situational humour of its predecessors. Akshay has been cast as the lead antagonist against Ajay Devgn and his ragtag ensemble of misfits. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Golmaal 5 will be bigger in scale and bolder in the madness quotient. Akshay's addition will only raise the already high stakes for the film. The rest of the original cast, including Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor, Kunal Kemmu, Shreyas Talpade, and Sharman Joshi, are set to return, with Johnny Lever, Sanjay Mishra, Mukesh Tiwari and Ashwini Kalsekar. The shoot of this Rohit Shetty directorial is expected to begin by the end of this month in Film City, Mumbai, as the makers are eyeing a theatrical release in early 2027. It will be Akshay's second back-to-back antagonist role after the upcoming action thriller Haiwaan. Stay tuned...

Dhurandhar vs Jawan Box Office Comparison: How have the two ₹1000-crore blockbusters performed in India and worldwide?

The Indian film industry has seen a massive shift in box office dynamics over the last few years, with Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan and Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar emerging as two of the biggest domestic and global earners. While Jawan set the benchmark for the biggest opening week in history, Dhurandhar displayed unprecedented theatrical endurance to climb the worldwide ladder. In terms of initial impact, Jawan remains unrivaled. The Shah Rukh Khan starrer recorded an opening day of ₹75 Crore (India Net), which is significantly higher than Dhurandhar's ₹28 Crore start. This trend continued through the first week, where Jawan amassed a staggering ₹348 Crore, while Dhurandhar stood at ₹207 Crore. However, the second half of the journey saw Dhurandhar showing a superhuman hold. While Jawan was front-loaded, Dhurandhar functioned like a marathon runner, eventually crossing the ₹800 Crore mark in India Net collections. Jawan Vs Dhurandhar: Head-to-Head Comparison CATEGORY JAWAN (SRK) DHURANDHAR (RANVEER) Opening Day (India Net) ₹ 75 Cr ₹ 28 Cr Opening Weekend (India Net) ₹ 211 Cr ₹ 103 Cr Opening Week (India Net) ₹ 348 Cr ₹ 207 Cr India Net (Lifetime) ₹ 640.25 Cr ₹ 836.95 Cr Overseas Collection ₹ 400 Cr ₹ 299 Cr Worldwide Collection ₹ 1160 Cr ₹ 1303 Cr Total Footfalls (India) 3.79 Crore 3.68 Crore (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   In the international market, Jawan remains the undisputed leader. It collected ₹400 Crore from overseas territories, significantly higher than Dhurandhar’s ₹299 Crore. TIt is important to note that Dhurandhar’s overseas total was significantly affected by theatrical bans in several Gulf countries due to its sensitive geopolitical themes. Trade estimates suggest that this ban resulted in a potential loss of approximately ₹90 Crore in theatrical revenue. Despite missing out on this lucrative market, the film's domestic resilience was so strong that its India Net (₹836.95 Cr) pushed its Worldwide Gross to ₹1303 Crore, eventually surpassing Jawan’s lifetime total. Box Office Legacy: Jawan vs. Dhurandhar Milestones 1. Jawan (The Opening Sprint): Trend Setter (Fastest Hindi film to net ₹300 Cr in 5 days and ₹500 Cr in 13 days) 2. Shah Rukh Khan's 2023: Historic Feat (Only Indian actor to deliver two ₹1000 Crore films in a single calendar year) 3. Dhurandhar (The Marathon): Longevity Record (Holds the all-time highest collections for weeks 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8) 4. The Single Language Peak: All-Time Record (First film in history to cross ₹1,000 Crore in a single language — Hindi) If the box office is measured by immediate impact and mass reach, Jawan is the winner with its record opening and higher footfalls. However, if it is measured by monetary efficiency and theatrical endurance, Dhurandhar takes the crown as the highest-grossing Hindi-origin film in the worldwide list.

Dhurandhar 2 Music Rights: T-Series Boards Ranveer Singh's Massive Sequel; Revisit The First Film's Global Spotify Record

Following the historic, record-shattering success of Dhurandhar, the momentum for its sequel has reached a fever pitch. In a major development for the film's production, the music rights have been officially locked.According to an exclusive report by The Hollywood Reporter India, music giant T-Series has boarded Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar 2 as the official music label. This partnership marks a notable shift in the franchise's musical stewardship. While the music for the first installment was released by Saregama—which played a crucial role in the film's global viral success—the rights have now moved to T-Series for the second chapter. As Per the exclusive details shared by The Hollywood Reporter India, the album for Dhurandhar 2 is positioned as a major commercial play. Insiders who have heard the early compositions describe the response from the film team as fabulous. Another source familiar with the project added that the album will again feature a wide variety of songs, signaling continuity with the first film's genre-spanning ambitions, even as the scale of the production widens. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The first installment, backed by Saregama, set an unprecedented global benchmark that T-Series now looks to replicate. Dhurandhar made history by becoming the first-ever Bollywood film to have its entire soundtrack debut in the Spotify Global Top 200. The first film's music was a primary driver for its eventually historic theatrical run. By boarding the sequel, T-Series is looking to leverage its massive digital infrastructure—including the world's most subscribed YouTube channel—to ensure the sequel's soundtrack becomes a global viral phenomenon. With the music rights now secured by T-Series and the satellite rights previously acquired by Star Gold, the sequel has already established a massive financial foundation through non-theatrical avenues. These high-value deals reflect the immense confidence in the Aditya Dhar-Ranveer Singh duo following their ₹1303 Crore worldwide theatrical run. As Dhurandhar 2 gears up for its March 19, 2026 release, the fabulous initial response to the soundtrack confirms that the film is aiming for nothing less than another global digital and theatrical takeover.

Border 2 Box Office:Misses Top 10 Highest First Week Collections by less than 5 Crores; See Full Top 15 List!

The Indian box office has witnessed a seismic shift in 2026, with sequels and mass entertainers rewriting historical records. While the First Day collection often grabs headlines, the First Week (7 Days) Collection is the ultimate litmus test for a film's long-term sustainability. In the recently updated list of the all-time highest opening week collections for Hindi/Bollywood movies, several 2025 and 2026 releases have made their way into the Top 15. The most recent entry, Border 2, has secured the 11th position, narrowly missing out on a spot in the Top 10. To understand where Border 2 stands, one must look at the giants it is competing with. Pushpa 2: The Rule remains at the undisputed #1 spot with a staggering 425.6 Cr, a figure that currently seems untouchable for any upcoming release. Top 15 Highest Opening Week Collection - Hindi/Bollywood SN MOVIE NAME 1ST WEEK (CR) WORLDWIDE (CR) 1 Pushpa: The Rule - Part 2 425.60 1742.10 2 Pathaan 351.00 1055.00 3 Jawan 347.98 1160.00 4 Animal 300.81 915.00 5 Stree 2 291.65 857.15 6 Gadar 2 284.63 686.00 7 KGF Chapter 2 268.63 1215.00 8 Baahubali 2: The Conclusion 247.00 1788.06 9 Sultan 229.16 627.82 10 War 228.50 471.00 11 Border 2 224.25 309.50 12 Chhaava 219.25 807.91 13 Dhurandhar 207.25 1301.50 14 Tiger Zinda Hai 206.04 558.00 15 Sanju 202.51 588.50 Securing the #11 spot on the all-time list is a monumental feat for Border 2. Collecting ₹224.25 Cr in its first week, it has narrowly missed out on the Top 10 by less than ₹5 Cr (currently held by Hrithik Roshan's War). What makes Border 2's performance unique is its Mass Momentum. While films like Dhurandhar and Chhaava had massive lifetime totals, Border 2 has shown a faster sprinting speed in its first 7 days. It has already pushed Salman Khan's Tiger Zinda Hai (206 Cr) and Ranbir Kapoor's Sanju (202 Cr) down the ladder, proving that patriotism-driven sequels are the current flavor of the Indian audience. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The Unbeatable Trio: Pushpa 2, Pathaan, and Jawan are the only three films to have breached the ₹340 Cr mark in their opening week. Worldwide Efficiency: Despite being #13 in its first week, Dhurandhar holds the record for one of the highest Worldwide Gross-to-Net ratios in the list, finishing at a massive ₹1301.5 Cr. The South Dominance: Out of the Top 15 Hindi first-week openers, four films (Pushpa 2, Jawan, KGF 2, Baahubali 2) have strong South Indian roots, showcasing the power of Pan-India cinema. Sequel Power: Six out of the Top 15 films are sequels or part of established franchises (Pushpa 2, Jawan, Stree 2, Gadar 2, KGF 2, Border 2), indicating that franchise value is the safest bet for a massive start. Top 5 Fastest Films to ₹200 Cr (First Week) 1. Pushpa: The Rule: Record Holder (Crossed ₹400 Cr in Week 1) 2. Pathaan: The Comeback King (First Bollywood film to hit ₹350 Cr in Week 1) 3. Jawan: Mass Global Hit (Formerly held the record for the highest non-holiday Monday; currently the highest single-day grosser on a Sunday with ₹71.63 Cr) 4. Animal: Trendsetter (Highest first-week for an A-rated film) 5. Stree 2: ₹ 229.55 Cr(Hindi Net) (Highest first week for a horror-comedy) While its first-week journey ends at #11, its steady trending suggests it could challenge the lifetime collections of Gadar 2 and Baahubali 2. The theatrical landscape in 2026 continues to be dominated by high-octane sequels, and Border 2 is currently the captain of that ship.

While fans were excited to revisit the high-octane action thriller after its sensational theatrical run, the Netflix version has sparked disappointment across social media platforms soon after its release. Directed by Aditya Dhar, Dhurandhar started streaming on Netflix from January 30 in Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil, after the 8 weeks of theatrical run. However, the OTT audience is expressing disappointment over the release. The main reason behind the backlash is the reduced runtime and visible censorship in the OTT cut. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) One major point of discussion was that Netflix's version of Dhurandhar is nine minutes shorter than the original duration of 3 hours and 34 minutes. The runtime of the film on the streaming platform is 3 hours and 25 minutes. Going by the social media reactions, fans are accusing the streaming platform of muting dialogues, censoring abusive language and trimming a total of 10 minutes of the film. According to reports, the runtime of the movie was reduced after the makers were asked to mute two words and one dialogue in reference to Baloch in the movie. According to the revised censor certificate of Dhurandhar, its new runtime is 3 hours, 28 minutes and 56 seconds, and it was further shortened for Netflix release. Stay tuned...

Dhurandhar Makes History: Joins Elite ₹1000 Cr India Gross Club; Becomes First Single-Language Film to Hit the Milestone

The Indian box office has witnessed a historic moment as the mega-epic Dhurandhar officially crossed the monumental ₹1000 Crore Gross mark in India. In doing so, it has entered a legendary territory previously occupied only by three of the biggest cinematic giants in history: Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, KGF: Chapter 2, and Pushpa 2: The Rule. This Gigantic Blockbuster status solidifies the film's position as one of the most successful cinematic ventures ever produced in the country. What makes this achievement truly unprecedented is that Dhurandhar has become the first Indian film in history to gross over ₹1000 Crore with a single language. While previous record-holders relied on massive multi-language dubbed versions to reach the four-figure mark, the ground-level connection and repeat value of Dhurandhar in its primary language have set a new benchmark for the industry. This feat proves that a powerful narrative, when executed with grand vision, can achieve global-scale numbers even through a single-language stronghold. Building on this unprecedented momentum, the makers are wasting no time in bringing the next chapter to life. Even as the first film continues to draw crowds, work is in full swing for the sequel, Dhurandhar 2, which is officially slated for a grand theatrical release on March 19, 2026. To ensure the sequel matches the technical and emotional scale of its predecessor, the production team recently commenced a crucial 3-day patch shoot in Vile Parle, Mumbai. These sessions are focused on fine-tuning key high-intensity moments for the second installment. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The spotlight during this ongoing schedule is firmly on Arjun Rampal, who reprises his role as the cerebral antagonist Major Iqbal. Described as the mastermind behind the most complex terror strikes in the franchise's universe, Rampal's performance in the upcoming sequel is being touted as even more intense and layered. With the March 19 release fast approaching, these final touches are being added to ensure the sequel lives up to the massive legacy created by the first part. Following its record-breaking theatrical journey, the digital premiere of Dhurandhar is officially set for January 30, 2026, on Netflix. After achieving the historic ₹1000 Crore India Gross milestone, the film's OTT arrival has generated massive buzz among digital audiences. This late January release on Netflix is strategically timed to allow viewers to experience the epic saga at home just weeks before the much-anticipated sequel, Dhurandhar 2, hits the big screens on March 19. With Dhurandhar joining the ranks, there are now only four films in the history of Indian cinema to have breached the ₹1000 Crore gross mark within the domestic market.

The controversy around Ghooskhor Pandat erupted soon after the film's title and promotional material surfaced online. A section of social media users and community groups objected to the use of the word Pandat in the title, alleging that it could be interpreted as a derogatory reference to a particular caste or community.

Border 2 Box Office Collection Week 2: Sunny Deol's war drama hits ₹294 crore mark in 14 days

Directed by Anurag Singh, the war epic Border 2 has concluded its second week on a strong note, maintaining excellent stability at the box office. Featuring a high-profile ensemble cast including Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty, the film has successfully carried the legacy of the original franchise while drawing massive crowds across both multiplexes and single screens. The film has now officially completed two weeks of its theatrical run, emerging as one of the biggest earners of the year. As per the 13-day data, Border 2 has demonstrated exceptional legs at the box office. The domestic net collection stood at ₹290.9 Crore, while the India gross reached ₹347.5 Crore. The film's reach extended significantly to international markets as well, where it raked in an overseas collection of ₹51 Crore. This pushed the worldwide total to ₹398.5 Crore by the end of its 13th day, putting it on the doorstep of the monumental ₹400 Crore global milestone. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   On its 14th day (second Thursday), the film continued its steady trend with early estimates suggesting a collection of approximately ₹3.35 Crore net in India. This takes the total 14-day domestic net collection to roughly ₹294.25 Crore. By crossing the ₹290 Crore mark in two weeks, the film is now set to enter the elite ₹300 Crore club in the Indian market by its third Friday or Saturday, further cementing its blockbuster status.

Gabru Postponed: Sunny Deol and Salman Khan Starrer Vacates March 13 Release Slot; Details Inside

Gabru, the highly anticipated action-drama starring Sunny Deol with a significant extended cameo by Salman Khan, has officially been postponed. Originally slated for a theatrical release on March 13, 2026, the makers have decided to push the film's arrival to a later date. This development adds to a shifting March 2026 box office calendar, which has seen multiple high-profile projects moving their release windows. Gabru Release Date Postponed: The Reason Behind the Shift In an exclusive report by Bollywood Hungama, it has been revealed that the Shashank Udapurkar directorial will no longer arrive on its previously locked date. While the makers are yet to announce a new release date, trade sources suggest the decision is strategic. The mid-March window coincides with the start of the holy month of Ramzan, which often leads to a dip in theatrical footfalls. Additionally, the industry is bracing for a massive box office clash on March 19, when Dhurandhar: The Revenge and Toxic are scheduled to hit the screens. Given Sunny Deol's incredible recent track record with blockbusters like Border 2 and Gadar 2, the production team is reportedly aiming for a solo release window that can maximize the film's potential at the box office. One of the biggest talking points for Gabru remains the extended special appearance of Salman Khan. The superstar reportedly shot his portions over a year ago. Far from a blink-and-miss appearance, Salman Khan is set to appear in three key scenes, described as an adorable and highly entertaining part of the narrative. The collaboration between Sunny Deol and Salman Khan has created immense buzz, and the producers are keen to ensure the film gets the widest possible release without being crowded by other major releases. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Directed by Shashank Udapurkar and produced by Vishal Rana, Gabru is mounted as a high-octane action-drama that leverages the legendary screen presence of Sunny Deol. While specific plot details remain closely guarded by the production house, the film is reported to be an emotional yet gritty narrative where Salman Khan's character plays a pivotal, heart-filled role. Verified reports indicate that Salman Khan's character is expected to bring a significant emotional anchor to the film, making this collaboration one of the most anticipated on-screen reunions in recent years. Conclusion: Avoiding the Box Office Storm The postponement of Gabru marks a growing trend of release date flight in the first half of March. The industry is currently bracing for a massive box office storm on March 19, when Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar: The Revenge and Yash's Toxic are set to collide in a historic clash. By backing away from the March 13 slot, the makers of Gabru—along with the producers of Pati Patni Aur Woh Do—are clearly looking to avoid the screen-sharing crunch and limited theatrical window that these two mega-budget films will inevitably create. For a film like Gabru, which relies on the strong theatrical momentum Sunny Deol has built with Gadar 2 and Border 2, securing a clean, solo release window is a strategic necessity to ensure maximum reach.

In a major development for the upcoming spring film calendar, the highly anticipated sequel Pati Patni Aur Woh Do has been officially moved from its original release date of March 4, 2026. According to an exclusive report by Bollywood Hungama, the makers have decided to push the release to ensure the final product meets the high expectations set by the franchise. According to trade sources, the decision to postpone was driven by a commitment to quality. The film is currently in the final stages of post-production, with one song sequence still left to be filmed. The producers, including Bhushan Kumar and Juno Chopra, are reportedly keen on avoiding a rushed release, opting instead to devote more time to perfecting the VFX and technical aspects of the quirky comedy. The vacation of the March 4 slot creates an interesting scenario for the industry. While the date offers a massive five-day extended weekend due to Holi falling on a Wednesday, it also faces significant competition. The first week of March coincides with the high-stakes semi-finals and finals of the 2026 Men's T20 World Cup (March 4–8), which traditionally impacts theatrical footfalls. Furthermore, the industry is preparing for a massive clash on March 19, with the release of Dhurandhar: The Revenge and Toxic. By moving out of March 4, Pati Patni Aur Woh Do avoids these headwinds but loses the holiday advantage for its opening.

King India Theatrical Rights: Shah Rukh Khan Starrer Sparks Bidding War; ₹200 Crore Advance Offer on Table

Following the official announcement earlier this week that Yash Raj Films (YRF) will handle the international distribution for the action spectacle King, the spotlight has now shifted to the film's domestic theatrical rights. In a major exclusive report by Pinkvilla, it has been revealed that the trade is currently abuzz with a record-shattering distribution offer. Starring Shah Rukh Khan alongside Suhana Khan, the project has reportedly sparked an intense bidding war among India's leading distribution studios, with financial proposals reaching levels rarely seen in the Indian film industry. According to the exclusive details shared by Pinkvilla, the proposed top offer currently under discussion involves a staggering ₹200 crore advance coupled with an 8% distribution commission. This represents one of the largest commission-based deals in recent times, aligning with the modern industry norm where acquisition models have taken a backseat to partnership-based structures. This high-value deal reflects the massive confidence the trade has in the theatrical pull of the Shah Rukh Khan brand following his record-breaking run in 2023. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Historic India Theatrical Distribution Benchmarks 1. Pathaan (2023): Self-Distributed (Handled in-house by YRF;) 2. Jawan (2023): ₹125 Cr - ₹150 Cr Advance (North/West India only; Distributed by Pen Marudhar) 3. Pushpa 2: The Rule (2024): ₹200 Cr (North India) (Acquired by AA Films on a Minimum Guarantee (MG) basis—the highest for a dubbed film) 4. King (2026): ₹200 Cr Advance Offer (The highest-ever proposed Advance for a solo SRK film on an 8% commission deal) Several major studios are in contention for the pan-India rights, including A.A. Films, Yash Raj Films, and Dharma Productions. However, Pinkvilla reports that Pen Marudhar, Jio Studios, and PVRINOX Pictures have emerged as the primary front-runners at this stage. Pen Marudhar holds a significant advantage due to its frequent and successful association with Red Chillies Entertainment, having previously distributed Jawan and Dunki. Meanwhile, PVRINOX Pictures remains a strong contender due to its status as the owner of the largest multiplex chain in the country, and Jio Studios is aggressively looking to add this high-profile asset to its dominant 2026 theatrical slate. Directed by Siddharth Anand and produced by Red Chillies Entertainment in association with Marflix Pictures, King is being mounted as a global action event. The film marks the highly anticipated theatrical debut of Suhana Khan, with Abhishek Bachchan confirmed to play the primary antagonist. With the overseas market already locked by YRF and a ₹200 crore bidding war underway for the Indian domestic market, King is positioned to be the most significant theatrical event of the December 24, 2026 (Christmas) window.
