Border 2 Box Office Collection Day 8: Seven days since release, Sunny Deol film shows no signs of slowing

Sunny Deol’s film, which also features Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty in key roles, opened on a strong note at the box office.

Sunny Deol’s Border 2 continues its impressive run at the box office, with the film’s earnings standing at ₹4.18 crore on Friday at 5:45 pm, taking the overall domestic collection to ₹228.43 crore, as per trade tracker Sacnilk. ‘Border 2’ appears to have been impacted by the arrival of ‘Mardaani 3’. By afternoon shows, the Sunny Deol–led film had earned ₹4.18 crore. In comparison, ‘Mardaani 3’ collected ₹1.43 crore during the same time frame on its opening day.

Sunny Deol’s film, which also features Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty in key roles, opened on a strong note at the box office. The film showed steady growth over its first weekend and benefited from the Republic Day holiday. However, collections witnessed a sharp fall in the days that followed. The release of Rani Mukerji’s ‘Mardaani 3’ has further intensified the competition at the box office.

After a robust opening of ₹30 crore, ‘Border 2’ saw a significant jump on Sunday, earning ₹54.5 crore.
