The fervor surrounding Gadar 2 shows no signs of abating. Following its record-breaking second Saturday collection of Rs 31.07 crore, the film added Rs 41 crore to its Indian box office haul on Sunday, August 20, according to industry tracker Sacnilk. The Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel-starrer, which is rewriting box office records at a remarkable pace, has now amassed a staggering total of Rs 377.20 crore and is set to cross the Rs 400 crore mark soon.
In the face of competition from Rajinikanth’s Jailer and Akshay Kumar’s OMG 2 since its release, Gadar 2 remains a potent draw for moviegoers, as evidenced by its impressive Rs 40 crore opening day collection. The film’s strong box office performance has sustained over the weeks, with Sunday recording a commendable 72.60 percent overall occupancy rate. However, the movie is bracing itself for another challenge as Ayushmann Khurrana and Ananya Panday’s Dream Girl 2 are slated for release on Friday, August 25.
Gadar 2 has not only outstripped Salman Khan’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan (Rs 320 crore) but has also surpassed the earnings of Tiger Zinda Hai (Rs 339 crore), PK (Rs 340 crore), and Sanju (Rs 342 crore) to claim the position of the fifth-highest grossing Hindi movie ever at the domestic box office.
