By Shalmesh More

The numbers behind the Dhurandhar franchise are getting harder to process the more closely they are examined. With just two installments, Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar 2 have amassed a staggering 3200 crore+ gross at the worldwide box office. To put that figure in perspective, every other major Bollywood spy thriller ever made, combined, has earned 3800 crore+. Such a comparison clearly shows the crazy benchmark set by the Dhurandhar franchise in the spy thriller genre.
