Border 2 Advance Booking Explodes! Sunny Deol Set to Smash Rs 40 Cr Opening & Crush Gadar 2 Record?
Bollywood’s 2026 blockbuster race heats up as Sunny Deol’s Border 2 storms ahead with massive hype, positioning itself as the Hindi film’s first major hit this year.
Telugu audiences kicked off 2026 strong with Chiranjeevi’s Shiv Shankar Prasad Garu, but Hindi fans are now pinning hopes on this high-stakes war sequel to ignite theatres. Slated for January 23—just before Republic Day—the film has fans chanting patriotic anthems in excitement.
Advance Bookings on Fire: Rs 5.75 Cr Already, Rs 10 Cr by Tonight?
Advance sales kicked off in India on Wednesday, after early buzz in overseas markets like Canada, Germany, and Australia. The response? Electric.
- Nearly 2 lakh opening-day tickets sold in days.
- Sacnilk logs Rs 5.75 crore gross by Thursday morning.
- BookMyShow reports 4,000 tickets/hour—double the pace from days ago.
Trade buzz predicts advances crossing Rs 10 crore tonight. That’s outpacing flops like Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar (under Rs 4 crore pre-release).
Box Office Prediction: Rs 32-40 Cr Day 1 Smash?
Experts forecast a monster Rs 32-35 crore India opening—leaps ahead of Sunny Deol’s last film Jaat (Rs 9 crore). Bullish voices eye Rs 40 crore+ if reviews glow and Tier-2/3 cities swarm cinemas, eclipsing Gadar 2‘s Rs 40.1 crore debut.
What’s Border 2 Bringing to the Battlefield?
This sequel to JP Dutta’s 1997 classic amps up the drama under Anurag Singh’s direction. Sunny Deol leads with Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh and Ahan Shetty. Producers Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, JP Dutta and Nidhi Dutta deliver patriotism, raw emotion, and explosive action.
