The patriotic drama Border 2 continues to demonstrate resilience at the Indian box office in its fourth week. On Day 27 (February 18, Wednesday), the film collected an estimated ₹0.65 Cr net, reflecting a moderate decline from the previous day amid typical weekday patterns. Early estimates for Day 28 (February 19, Thursday) indicate a collection of around ₹0.5 Cr net, showing a slight stabilization as evening shows contribute to the tally. This performance aligns with the film’s steady hold in mass circuits, despite competition from newer releases.
Overall trends suggest that Border 2 has maintained a consistent audience base, particularly in northern and central India, where patriotic themes resonate strongly. The drop from Day 27 to Day 28 is approximately 23 percent, which is reasonable for a film in its late run. Compared to the third week, where collections hovered between ₹0.8 Cr and ₹2 Cr on weekends, the current figures indicate a natural tapering, yet the movie remains profitable given its strong opening and holiday boost during Republic Day.
Theatre occupancy reports from platforms like BookMyShow reveal low to moderate footfall for Day 28 morning shows, averaging 10-15 percent in key cities such as Delhi and Mumbai. Afternoon and evening slots are expected to improve slightly, driven by walk-ins. Social media discussions highlight positive word-of-mouth sustaining interest, though the film’s longevity will depend on upcoming weekends.
