Dhurandhar Falters: Underwhelming Japan Debut
11 Jul
Summary
- Dhurandhar failed to rank in Japan's top 25 on its opening day.
- The film registered below 900 footfalls, similar to Pushpa 2's debut.
- It needed 1.30K footfalls to enter the top 10 Indian film openings.
Dhurandhar, starring Ranveer Singh, commenced its run in Japan on July 10, 2026, with a disappointing performance. The film did not manage to enter the top 25 rankings on its opening day, indicating poor audience turnout. Initial footfall data until 2 PM showed promise with 449 attendees across 57 locations.
However, the film experienced a significant drop in the latter half of the day, screening at 80 locations but remaining below 900 footfalls. This opening day performance is comparable to that of Pushpa 2, which also saw limited success on its Japan debut in January 2026. Both films missed out on entering the historical top 10 Indian film openings in Japan.
Dhurandhar needed a minimum of 1.30K footfalls to replace Tiger 3 at the bottom of the list. Hopes are now pinned on the film's performance over the opening weekend to gain momentum and improve its box office standing in Japan.
