Dhurandhar is gearing up for an interesting move, as its making documentary is reportedly set for a theatrical release soon. The strategy instantly reminds trade circles of the approach taken by RRR, who’s behind-the-scenes documentary first hit cinemas in late 2024 before arriving on OTT platforms.
While the RRR documentary generated curiosity, its theatrical performance remained only moderate despite the film’s massive global popularity. Now, a similar question is being raised, will Dhurandhar repeat the same pattern and face a comparable outcome?
One of the biggest talking points around Dhurandhar has been its scale and production design. The team recreated an artificial Pakistan setup in Bangkok, a detail that left many in the industry impressed.
This aspect alone drew a section of the audience to theatres, especially those interested in filmmaking craft and large-scale production execution.
Director Aditya Dhar is known for his technical precision, and the documentary could offer a deeper look into his vision and execution. However, trade experts remain cautious. Unlike a feature film, making documentaries have limited theatrical pull, often appealing only to niche audiences.
While curiosity and craftsmanship might bring some footfall, expectations are that the documentary may not translate into significant box office numbers, echoing the trend seen with RRR.
