Border 2 box office collection
As per the report, Border 2 earned ₹30 crore net in India as per early estimates. The film beat Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar, which earned ₹27 crore on day one of its release.
Border 2 did well in terms of pre-sales, minting ₹12.5 crore gross for its opening day, and selling over 4 lakh tickets across India. This number was higher than what Dhurandhar, 2025’s biggest hit, managed just over a month ago. The film, a spiritual sequel to JP Dutta’s Border, was touted as Bollywood’s first big release of 2026. And it has certainly lived up to its reputation.
The film is the first big tentpole release from Bollywood in 2026, and is now looking at a ₹100+ crore opening weekend.
This puts it on course to beat the opening day marks of several of last year’s biggest hits. By the end of the day, Border 2 couldn’t beat Chhaava ( ₹32 crore) or Sunny Deol’s all-time day 1 record of ₹40.10 crore, set by Gadar 2 in 2023.
Border 2 HT review
The Hindustan Times review of the film read, “Border 2 is not content with being just another sequel. It wants to make you sit up and salute. While its excesses are hard to ignore, so is its sincerity. The film reaches back into a time when patriotism in cinema was worn unapologetically… when heroes spoke loudly and emotions rang true. And with some genuinely moving moments, Border 2 delivers exactly what it promises: a theatrical experience meant to be felt in a darkened hall, among strangers who momentarily feel like comrades.”
