Mumbai, December 12 - Over the last couple of years, Bollywood witnessed a significant surge in theatrical footfalls, especially for big-ticket entertainers, and BookMyShow's first-week ticket sales list highlights just how strong audience demand has been for major releases.

Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar has emerged as one of the strongest box-office performers of the year, surprising trade with its phenomenal audience pull. The spy action thriller was all in its glory, registering 3.31 million ticket sales on BookMyShow in its opening week, a figure that places it firmly in the 8th position among the top first-week ticket sellers on the platform.

The list is dominated by some of Bollywood's biggest event films. At the very top stands superstar Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan, which rewrote records with a staggering 7.65 million tickets sold within its 8-day extended opening week, setting a benchmark that remains unmatched. Close behind is Ranbir Kapoor's Animal, maintaining strong momentum with 6.43 million tickets.

Shraddha Kapoor-led Stree 2 continued the success of its franchise with an impressive 5.81 million tickets sold, further proving its hold over the horror-comedy space. Chhaava, starring Vicky Kaushal, followed closely at 5.44 million, demonstrating its strong connect with audiences, while Sunny Deol's Gadar 2, propelled by enormous nostalgia and mass appeal, is the fifth in the list with 5.30 million ticket sales.

The latest entrant in the list, Dhurandhar, has turned into a major success story. The film's stunning commercial run has been powered by strong word of mouth, high-octane storytelling, and the exceptional performances by every actor. The film has already grossed around 250 crores domestically in the first week and is heading towards the 500 crores mark.

The list not only highlights Bollywood's thriving box office resurgence but also confirms that theatrical entertainment remains stronger than ever, with diverse genres, action, comedy, drama, and thrillers, drawing massive crowds nationwide.
