The immense popularity of the Hindi-language spy action thriller Dhurandhar has led to the addition of post-midnight shows in theaters across Maharashtra.

This decision was made after advance bookings for the film skyrocketed at both multiplexes and single-screen cinemas.

The trend is not limited to Mumbai, with Pune also joining in on the excitement by introducing late-night screenings from 12:20am onward, reported Bollywood Hungama.
