R Madhavan says filmmaker Aditya Dhar spent an additional Rs 10 crore on the intricate “peak detailing” in the eight-hour Dhurandhar project. Madhavan said the film’s success changed his view of whether audiences notice such fine details. The phrase later became a social media meme, which Dhar acknowledged in a birthday post on X. The Hindustan Times reports that Dhurandhar earned around Rs 1,300 crore worldwide and Dhurandhar: The Revenge crossed Rs 1,800 crore. The Times of India describes the franchise’s total earnings as over Rs 3,000 crore. The two reports differ slightly in their account of the overall box-office figure.
