As the countdown begins for a high-octane clash at the North American box office, the USA premiere advance sales for Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge and Yash's Toxic have revealed an interesting trend. Latest data shared by trade tracker Venky Box Office suggests that Dhurandhar 2 is currently dominating the pre-sales charts, leaving the Geethu Mohandas directed Toxic behind in the initial phase.

This strong start suggests a high level of anticipation for the sequel, which appears to have a more aggressive distribution strategy in the North American circuit at this stage.

In contrast, the Yash-starrer Toxic is currently in the early stages of its USA booking journey. The Geethu Mohandas directorial has recorded $3,665 in premiere advance sales so far, with 189 tickets sold across 81 locations and 122 shows.
