Released on December 5, Dhurandhar is set to cross the Rs 800 crore mark at the worldwide box office. Soon after the film's release, film critic Anupama Chopra gave Dhurandhar a negative review, describing it as an "exhausting, relentless and frenzied espionage thriller propelled by charismatic, murderous men, too much testosterone, shrill nationalism and inflammatory anti-Pakistan narratives."
