With this, the movie’s total domestic collection has reached Rs 121 crore, according to industry tracker Sacnilk.

While Border 2 opened to Rs 30 crore, higher than Dhurandhar’s Rs 28 crore, it significantly improved its performance on day two, registering an India nett collection of Rs 36.5 crore, while the Ranveer Singh-starrer’s earnings stood at Rs 32 crore. Now, the Sunny Deol-led epic war actioner has outperformed Dhurandhar for the third day in a row, earning Rs 54.5 crore against the latter’s Rs 43 crore on their first Sunday in theatres.
During the day, Border 2 witnessed an overall occupancy of 59.14 per cent in the Hindi market. While the morning shows commenced with 31.46 per cent occupancy, the rate improved drastically as the day unfolded, reaching 68.93 per cent in the afternoon, 77.03 per cent in the evening, and peaking at 67.5per cent during night screenings.
Border 2’s strong and steady run has come as a relief for Sunny Deol, as his last outing, Jaat, underperformed at the box office, grossing just Rs 118.36 crore worldwide during its theatrical run. At the current rate, Border 2 is poised to surpass Jaat on day four itself. Meanwhile, the movie has offered an even bigger respite for Varun Dhawan, whose career had been on a steady decline for the past few years, with back-to-back box-office bombs and not a single success since Bhediya, which too wasn’t a massive hit.
