As per Sacnilk box office trends, Border 2, starring Sunny Deol, is heading for a big milestone. The film is all set to enter the ₹100 crore club today (Sunday), becoming the first Hindi film of 2026 to achieve this feat.
The patriotic war drama has shown strong growth in just two days. After a powerful opening on Friday, the film recorded an impressive 21.67% jump on Saturday, taking its 2-day India net collection to ₹65.5 crore.
Strong Performance in Mass Circuits
Border 2 is performing extremely well in mass belts and single screens, where many theatres are reporting housefull shows and capacity issues.
While urban centres picked up momentum after Friday afternoon, Saturday saw a big rise in footfalls, especially from family audiences. The Mumbai city and suburbs, which were average on Friday, showed clear improvement on Saturday as mass audiences turned up in large numbers.
Republic Day Holiday Boost
With Republic Day falling on Monday, the film is expected to gain even more strength. Trade experts, as per Sacnilk estimates, are predicting a huge 4-day extended weekend of around ₹180 crore net. Both Sunday and Monday are expected to see peak occupancy across India.

The strong patriotic theme, large scale, and Republic Day weekend release have played a major role in the film’s record-breaking box office start.
All eyes are now on Sunday and Monday collections, as Border 2 prepares to officially cross the ₹100 crore mark.
