Border 2 Box Office Day 12: Sunny Deol-Varun Dhawan War Epic Holds Firm, Nears ₹290 Cr

Border 2 continues its impressive run at the box office, proving that its appeal extends well beyond the opening frenzy. The Sunny Deol-led war drama, which also stars Varun Dhawan, Ahan Shetty and Diljit Dosanjh, has managed to stay firm in its second week despite the expected weekday dip. The latest figures indicate that the film still has enough fuel to march ahead strongly.

Released theatrically on January 23, Border 2 arrived with massive expectations — and delivered. After a thunderous first week, the film is now displaying remarkable stability, a key indicator of strong word of mouth and repeat audiences.

Border 2 Box Office Update

As per the latest data from Sacnilk, Border 2 collected ₹5.75 crore on its second Tuesday (day 12) at the domestic box office. Interestingly,

the figure is identical to its previous day’s earnings, signalling that the film has refused to slow down even during regular working days. With this, the total India collection now stands at ₹286.75 crore.

The film had already crossed the coveted ₹200 crore milestone within just six days of its release, cementing its blockbuster status early in its run. Its opening weekend performance also surpassed the collections of Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava and Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar, giving Border 2 a clear edge among recent big-ticket releases.

Trade experts believe that while the sharp peaks of the first week may be behind it, the film’s steady hold suggests a long and profitable theatrical journey ahead, especially in mass belts and single-screen theatres.
