Border 2 Box Office Collection Day 16: Border 2 may be slowing down at the box office, but it is still reaching key milestones. The Sunny Deol-starrer has now crossed the lifetime India collection of Salman Khan’s 2016 Blockbuster Sultan, even as its daily earnings drop in the third week.
After a powerful opening weekend, the film showed signs of losing steam. Now in its third week, the sequel is earning modest numbers despite early buzz. On its third Saturday (Day 16), the film saw a slight weekend rise, but collections stayed below Rs 5 cr.
Border 2 Box Office Collection Day 16
Border 2 opened on a strong note during the Republic Day weekend. The film earned Rs 295 cr net in India in its first two weeks, including a massive Rs 59 cr on January 26 alone.
However, collections dropped sharply once the third week began. Daily earnings fell below Rs 3 cr, showing a clear slowdown in footfalls. On Saturday (Day 16), the film collected Rs 4.25 cr net, taking its total India collection to Rs 301.50 cr after 16 days.
Despite the fall, the film achieved a big milestone. By entering the Rs 300 cr club, Border 2 went past the lifetime India collection of Sultan (Rs 300.45 cr). It also crossed other major hits such as Dhoom 3 (Rs 290 cr).
The film is now close to beating Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Padmaavat (Rs 303 cr). After that, it will aim for War (Rs 318 cr) and Bajrangi Bhaijaan (Rs 320 cr). Trade experts believe the film can still add Rs 15–20 cr, taking its final India total to around Rs 325 cr.
With a reported budget of Rs 275 cr, the film is already profitable. However, it may not reach all-time blockbuster status.
