Sunny Deol’s war drama, ‘Border 2’, is holding strong in theatres, even as its earnings have naturally dipped after the Republic Day holiday. Released on January 23, 2026, the film leveraged the patriotic spirit and the extended weekend, raking in impressive numbers during its opening days. Although the weekdays have seen a decline, industry experts are confident that the film is well on its way to joining the ₹200 crore club in India.
With a star-studded cast that includes Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty, ‘Border 2’ has struck a chord with audiences thanks to its mass appeal, nostalgic elements, and grand action sequences, factors that usually help a film maintain its box office momentum.
On Day 6 (Wednesday), ‘Border 2’ experienced a notable dip in its daily earnings. According to a report from Sacnilk, the film earned ₹0.48 crore (early estimates) across all languages. This sharp decline is mainly due to the conclusion of the holiday period and the return to regular workdays. Even with this slowdown, the total earnings are inching closer to the ₹200 crore mark, which keeps industry experts feeling hopeful.
Day 5 was the film’s first real test during a weekday. According to Sacnilk, ‘Border 2’ raked in around ₹19.5 crore on Tuesday. While this was a significant drop from the highs of the extended weekend, it was something many expected.
