Every day, Gadar 2 breaks records at the box office. The Sunny Deol-starrer has entered its second weekend, and expectations for the picture have been high for the past two days. The picture did well on its second Friday, collecting in the double digits. In fact, Gadar 2 outperformed all other Bollywood and South biggies at the box office on its second Friday.
The Anil Sharma-directed picture earned over Rs 19.50 crore nett on its eighth day in India, the highest sum for any Indian film on the second Friday. The picture eclipsed Pathaan, Dangal, The Kashmir Files, and PK, among others, to top the list of highest second-Friday grossers ever at the Box Office. The film also matched the second-Friday business of Baahubali 2 which also collected Rs 19.50 crore nett at the Box Office, as reported by Pinkvilla. The final collection of Gadar 2 could also be slightly more than Rs 19.50 nett, which would mean that it also surpassed Baahubali 2.
Gadar 2 is Sunny’s first film to join the prestigious club, and the 12th Bollywood film to do so. Surprisingly, it is the second-fastest Bollywood film to reach Rs 300 crore. Pathaan did it in six days, while Gadar 2 did it in eight. In this category, the film has also surpassed Baahubali 2, KGF 2, Dangal, and Sanju. All of these films took more than ten days to reach the Rs 300 crore club.
