Even though it ranks seventh in terms of advance ticket sales among national chains for the 2025–26 releases, Border 2 is shaping up to be one of the most promising openings of the year. Its success isn’t just limited to the big multiplexes; its performance in smaller chains has also significantly boosted the overall numbers. Industry estimates indicate that the film has raked in about ₹9.50–10 crore net from advance bookings, putting it ahead of most recent releases, except for the record-breaking Chhaava.

Ticket pricing has also influenced these figures. While some films have thrived with lower ticket prices, Border 2 has maintained its ground with relatively higher rates, making its advance sales even more impressive. Adding to the excitement is the film’s favorable release timing, which includes an extended weekend and a major national holiday on Monday—elements that typically drive strong box office performance.

With Sunny Deol sharing the screen with Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty, Border 2 is set to mix grand visuals, heartfelt moments, and a strong sense of nationalism—elements that truly resonate with Indian viewers. Early signs are looking promising, with box office forecasts suggesting an impressive ₹30–37 crore opening day in India. Industry experts are honing in on a ₹32 crore net debut, which would land the film among the top openers in its category.

As the excitement grows and ticket sales continue to soar across various circuits, Border 2 seems primed to take the box office by storm right from the get-go. With solid advance bookings, broad appeal, and a release timed with the holidays, this film is gearing up to be one of the season’s biggest theatrical spectacles. Now, all eyes are on whether it can turn this initial buzz into a blockbuster success.
