Highest Grossing Hindi Movies

Pushpa 2, the pan-India film that released in 2024, was a massive hit with its Hindi dubbed version. The film has earned Rs. 821 crore itself. Trade sources, however, maintain that Dhurandhar’s domestic collection as of Tuesday is Rs. 782 crore.

Dhurandhar has also set a new record for the highest collection by any Indian film in a single language. In 2025, Vicky Kaushal's Chhaava had earned Rs. 601 crore in the language, while Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan had earned Rs. 586 crore.

Spanning nearly a decade, the film also shows the part Pakistan played in major terror attacks – not just in India but globally too, with the use of archival footage. Be it the 9/11 terror attacks or the shocking one that took place in Mumbai on November 26, 2008, the makers have kept the narrative raw.
