Border 2 Advance Booking Day 1

The advance booking for Border 2, which co-stars Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Ahan Shetty and Diljit Dosanjh, opened on Monday. As of Wednesday morning, early estimates by trade tracker Sacnilk indicate that the film has grossed Rs 3.29 crore (excluding block seats), with over 1 lakh tickets sold across the country from 9,179 shows. Including block seat data, the figures rise significantly, with advance collections inching closer to Rs 6.53 crore for Day 1.

In key regions, Border 2 is showing strong performance, say, such as in the Delhi-NCR circuit, the film has grossed Rs 1.46 crore from 1,048 shows. Meanwhile, in Mumbai, it has collected Rs 63.11 lakhs from 765 shows. This momentum is being seen as a positive sign for the film, which is a sequel to JP Dutta’s 1997 cult war classic Border. Notably, Border 2 has already outperformed Sunny Deol’s previous release Jaat, which had recorded advance bookings of Rs 2.37 Cr.

With two more days remaining before its release, the film is expected to witness further growth in advance sales, positioning itself for a strong opening. If it manages to secure a solid start, Border 2 is likely to consolidate its performance over the extended weekend, aided by the Republic Day holiday.
