Border 2, the much-awaited sequel to the 1997 classic, continues its run at the box office into the third week. On day 20, the film collected an estimated ₹1.75 crore net in India, showing a slight dip from the previous day’s ₹2.5 crore. This reflects a steady but slowing trend as the movie faces typical weekday challenges after a strong opening boosted by the Republic Day holiday.
Early estimates for day 21 indicate around ₹1.6 crore net collection in India, based on morning occupancy trends and advance bookings. While the figures are lower compared to the peak weekend numbers, the film maintains decent hold in key markets like Punjab and Delhi, where patriotic themes resonate strongly. Overall, Border 2 has demonstrated resilience, crossing significant milestones despite competition from new releases.
Analysts note a consistent downward trend in the third week, with fluctuations tied to working days. However, positive word-of-mouth and star power from Sunny Deol and the ensemble cast keep it afloat. If the momentum holds over the weekend, the film could add another 5-7 crore before wrapping up its theatrical run.

About Border 2 and Future Prediction
Border 2 is a war drama directed by Anurag Singh, serving as a sequel to the iconic 1997 film Border. It features Sunny Deol reprising his role alongside new additions like Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty. The story draws from real events of the 1971 Indo-Pak war, blending intense action with emotional narratives of bravery and sacrifice across army, navy, and air force fronts.
The film has received positive feedback for its grand scale, powerful performances, and patriotic fervor, though some critics pointed out pacing issues in the second half. Its release during the Republic Day weekend helped boost initial collections, making it one of the top openers of 2026. With a strong ensemble and high production values, it appeals to audiences seeking inspirational stories.
Looking ahead, Border 2 is poised to end its run around ₹325-340 crore net in India, securing blockbuster status given its budget. Overseas markets show steady interest, potentially adding more to the tally. If it sustains over the next weekend, it could aim for the 350 crore club, depending on competition and digital release timing.
