The much-awaited action entertainer Dhurandhar: The Revenge has officially opened its advance bookings across India, setting the stage for one of the most anticipated theatrical releases of the season. With the countdown now underway, audiences can secure their tickets for the film’s paid preview shows scheduled to begin on Wednesday, March 18, 2026. The film will then have its grand theatrical release on Thursday, March 19, 2026.
The release date strategically aligns with major festive celebrations across the country, including Gudi Padwa and Ugadi, while also arriving just ahead of the festive period of Eid al-Fitr. This festive window is expected to boost footfall in cinemas, giving the film a strong opening across multiple regions. Festival releases have historically proven to be advantageous for big-budget entertainers, and the makers of Dhurandhar: The Revenge are clearly aiming to capitalize on this celebratory atmosphere.
Adding to the film’s pan-Indian appeal, Dhurandhar: The Revenge will be released simultaneously in five major Indian languages — Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada. This wide multilingual release strategy ensures the film reaches audiences across the country, expanding its market and increasing its box office potential.
The film is produced by Jyoti Deshpande under the banner of Jio Studios in collaboration with B62 Studios. Known for backing large-scale cinematic ventures, the production houses have reportedly mounted the project on a grand scale with high production values and an action-packed narrative designed for the big screen experience.
Early buzz surrounding the film has been highly positive, with strong interest seen in advance ticket sales even before the official release week. The makers have been actively promoting the film, and the hype surrounding the project has steadily grown among moviegoers and fans. Industry observers believe that the combination of a festival release window, multilingual availability, and nationwide promotions could give the film a solid opening at the box office.
Paid premiere shows on March 18 are expected to create strong word-of-mouth ahead of the official release the next day. Such preview screenings have become increasingly popular in recent years, allowing enthusiastic fans to watch the film early while also helping build momentum before the main release.
With bookings now live across the country and excitement steadily building, Dhurandhar: The Revenge is gearing up for a grand arrival in theatres. If the early buzz and advance booking trends are any indication, the film could well emerge as one of the major box office attractions of the festive season.
