Gadar 2 breaks new box office records

Gadar 2 has not only outstripped Salman Khan’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan (Rs 320 crore) but has also surpassed the earnings of Tiger Zinda Hai (Rs 339 crore), PK (Rs 340 crore), and Sanju (Rs 342 crore) to claim the position of the fifth-highest grossing Hindi movie ever at the domestic box office. Emerging as the Hindi film industry’s biggest post-pandemic hit after Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan, Gadar 2 has secured its place as a blockbuster.

Despite lukewarm reviews, Gadar 2 continues to set the cash registers ringing. The Indian Express critic Shubhra Gupta gave the film 1.5 stars and wrote, “Even when it came out, 22 years back, ‘Gadar’ was much too loud and melodramatic, very much the kind of doused-in-patriotism film that director Anil Sharma was known to make: that style was already going out of style. This iteration just reminds of you the loudness and the saccharine and the over-the-top dialoguing that new Bollywood had started shaking off, which we hoped was safely behind us. Clearly, in vain.”
