Following the film Dhurandhar, its sequel Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge has now hit the big screens. True to the immense buzz surrounding the film among audiences, its opening-day earnings were equally spectacular. It joined the Rs 100 crore club on its very first day. While the film opened its account in India with explosive earnings, it also made a massive splash in international markets. Worldwide, it has already grossed over Rs 200 crore.
