Filmmaker Aditya Dhar’s spy thriller ‘Dhurandhar’ has secured the No. 1 spot on Netflix’s global Top 10 Non-English Films list, drawing strong viewers in India and other markets including Pakistan, where the film is primarily set.

According to Netflix’s weekly Tudum chart for the period January 26 to February 1, “Dhurandhar” topped the global chart among non-English films with 7.6 million views.

The Ranveer Singh starrer also ranked No. 1 on Netflix’s Top 10 Movies list in Pakistan, a notable showing as Indian films are not released theatrically there and the film tackles cross-border terrorism from the country.

“Dhurandhar”, which released on December 5, proved to be a blockbuster by earning over ₹1,300 crore at the box office. The film can be seen on Netflix from January 30.

Set in Lyari city of Karachi, an area known for its history of turf wars and violent battles, ‘Dhurandhar’ revolves around covert intelligence operations against the backdrop of geopolitical and terror events such as the Kandahar plane hijacking, the 2001 parliament attack and the 26/11 attacks in Mumbai.

The film, which also stars Akshaye Khanna, Sanjay Dutt, Arjun Rampal, R Madhavan and Sara Arjun, has further performed well in South Asia, including in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, the chart showed.

Despite not being released in the Gulf countries due to its perceived anti-Pakistani narrative, “Dhurandhar” is popular in several areas of the region.

According to the streaming platform’s data, it ranks No. 1 in the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Qatar and Oman, No. 4 in Kuwait and No. 6 in Saudi Arabia.

In Pakistan, the rest of the Top 10 film list is also dominated by Indian titles. According to the chart, films like Dhanush-Kriti Sanon starrer “Tere Ishk Mein”, Yami Gautam’s “Haq”, Ajay Devgn-led “De De Pyaar De 2”, Rani Mukerji’s “Mardaani 2” and “Mardaani” and “Jolly LLB 3”, starring Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi, are among the most watched films in the country.

The second part of the film, titled “Dhurandhar: The Revenge”, will hit the screens on March 19 in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam.

The film will continue the story of Singh’s spy-gangster character Jaskirat Singh Rangi, also known as Hamza Ali Mazari, charting his transformation into a killing machine while delving into his backstory before he became a spy. “Dhurandhar” is produced by Dhar and his brother Lokesh Dhar through their banner B62 Studios alongside Jyoti Deshpande of Jio Studios.
