However, for a film to be considered a box office hit, it needs to earn approximately double its budget. Therefore, 'Dhurandhar' would need to achieve a total collection of around ₹500 crore to be categorized as a hit. So, currently, it can only be called a "profitable" film, but not a hit.

'Dhurandhar' is directed by Aditya Dhar. Ranveer Singh plays the lead role, while Sara Arjun is the lead actress. The film also features Akshay Khanna, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, and R. Madhavan in important roles.
