Sunny Deol’s latest war drama Border 2 continued its impressive run at the box office on Tuesday, holding steady on its first non-holiday weekday and moving closer to the Rs 300 crore mark worldwide.
Directed by Anurag Singh, the film witnessed an expected dip on Day 5 but maintained strong momentum, collecting Rs 23.31 crore nett in India. With this, the film’s five-day domestic total stands at Rs 216.79 crore nett, reaffirming its blockbuster trajectory.
Strong Opening Weekend Fuels Momentum
Border 2 opened to robust numbers over its extended four-day weekend, benefiting from the Republic Day holiday. The film’s day-wise India nett collections stand as follows:
- Day 1: Rs 32.10 crore
- Day 2: Rs 40.59 crore
- Day 3: Rs 57.20 crore
- Day 4 (Republic Day): Rs 63.59 crore
The strong holiday performance laid the foundation for the film’s sustained weekday hold.
Worldwide Box Office Performance
According to industry tracking portal Sacnilk, Border 2 has amassed Rs 277 crore gross globally so far. This includes:
- India gross: Rs 239.75 crore
- Overseas gross: Rs 37.25 crore
With collections continuing at a healthy pace, the film is expected to cross the Rs 300 crore worldwide milestone in the coming days.
Surpasses Recent Blockbusters
Border 2 has already overtaken the lifetime worldwide collections of several recent Hindi film hits, including:
- Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par (Rs 266 crore)
- Kartik Aaryan’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (Rs 267 crore)
The film’s performance places it among the top-grossing Hindi films in recent years.
Star Cast and Production
Produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, J.P. Dutta, and Nidhi Dutta, Border 2 features a strong ensemble cast alongside Sunny Deol, including Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, Ahan Shetty, Mona Singh, Sonam Bajwa, Medha Rana, and Anya Singh.
Music label T-Series shared the box office figures on social media, describing the film as “the story that’s echoing across every corner of Hindustan.”
Outlook
With positive word of mouth, strong mass appeal, and continued footfalls, Border 2 is expected to maintain momentum through the week. Trade analysts believe the film’s patriotic theme and multi-star cast will help it sustain collections and consolidate its position as one of the biggest commercial successes of the year.
