Border 2 continues its strong theatrical run at the Indian box office. The patriotic war drama, starring Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, and Diljit Dosanjh, has completed its first week with impressive numbers despite a weekday slowdown.
Released on January 23, 2026, the film benefited from strong word of mouth, a long Republic Day weekend, and mass appeal in North India.

Border 2 City-Wise Box Office Performance and Occupancy Trends
Border 2 is seeing its strongest box office response in mass-belt and Tier-2/3 cities, where patriotic action films traditionally perform well. Jaipur has emerged as a top performer, followed by strong occupancy in Lucknow and other North and Central Indian circuits. These regions are driving collections mainly through robust single-screen attendance.
At the same time, the film is holding steadily in major metro markets like Delhi-NCR and the Mumbai circuit, supported by healthy multiplex footfalls. Chennai has also shown encouraging occupancy, hinting at limited cross-regional appeal. Overall, the combination of mass support and stable metro performance has helped Border 2 maintain a solid nationwide run.
Prediction for Day 8 Box Office
Border 2’s Day 8 (2nd Friday, Jan 30) is predicted to collect ₹12–12.5 crore nett in India, showing an 8–9% growth over Day 7 thanks to weekend momentum and advance bookings, despite Mardaani 3 competition.
With Mardaani 3 as the only major release this weekend, Border 2 is expected to maintain most of its screens and continue earning steadily over the coming days. Weekend growth in Week 2 could still further strengthen its box office position.
Border 2 has successfully passed the crucial first-week test. Crossing ₹224 crore in 7 days, the film has proved its box office power and remains one of the biggest Bollywood successes of early 2026.
