Border 2 Advance Bookings Explode!
21 Jan
Summary
- Border 2 collected Rs 2.63 crore in advance bookings.
- Film's advance surpasses Sunny Deol's Jaat first-day advance.
- Border 2 aims for Rs 35-40 crore Day 1 collection.
With its release just 48 hours away on January 23, 2026, Border 2 is experiencing a surge in advance bookings across India, having garnered Rs 2.63 crore by January 20. This figure already exceeds the first-day advance collection of Sunny Deol's film Jaat.
Trade experts anticipate further growth in ticket sales, with current blocked seats nearing Rs 6 crore. The film's release is strategically timed for the Republic Day holiday weekend, which is expected to boost final booking numbers.
Comparisons are being drawn to Gadar 2's record advance bookings, though Border 2 currently has fewer shows scheduled. Box office analysts forecast a Day 1 opening collection of Rs 35-40 crore, placing it in direct competition with Gadar 2's successful start.
The sequel to the 1997 cult classic Border, directed by Anurag Singh, has received a U/A 13+ rating without cuts. It depicts a significant 1971 battle with large-scale ground, air, and sea operations.
Marketing highlights Border 2 as India's biggest multi-front war epic, featuring the INS Vikrant and aerial combat. The ensemble cast includes Sunny Deol reprising his iconic role, alongside Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty. The new rendition of 'Sandese Aate Hai' has also amplified pre-release nostalgia and buzz.
