The film scorched the box office on August 15, Independence Day, minting Rs 55.40 crores.
Adarsh posted, "CREATES HISTORY ON INDEPENDENCE DAY… Highest-ever biz on *15 August*… Yes, #Gadar2 hits the ball out of the stadium on #IndependenceDay… Fri 40.10 cr, Sat 43.08 cr, Sun 51.70 cr, Mon 38.70 cr, Tue 55.40 cr. Total: ₹ 228.98 cr. #India biz… BLOCKBUSTER RUN continues.”
He added, “#Gadar2 faced capacity issues - not just at single screens, but also at multiplexes - on #IndependenceDay… The demand is clearly more than supply in this case, since #OMG2 has taken away a substantial number of screens, shows, footfalls and revenue… Just imagine the potential of #Gadar2 if it was a solo release.”
With the sequel sending the cash registers ringing as the original did, many are wondering if the 'Gadar 2' is on course to becoming the highest-grosser this year, even dwarfing records set by 'Pathaan’.
Adarsh also ran an online poll, asking, “#Poll: Will #Gadar2 surpass *lifetime biz* of #Pathaan and emerge the HIGHEST GROSSING FILM in #India? Note: #Hindi films. Nett BOC. #India biz.”
The film has done a collection of Rs 261.35 crores.
Helmed by Anil Sharma, ‘Gadar 2' sees Sunny Deol reprise his role as Tara Singh, a truck driver from Amritsar, while Ameesha returns as Sakina, his love interest. The film is set against the backdrop of the partition of India in 1947.
