Border 2 Advance Booking Update: Sunny Deol Film Sells 1 Lakh Tickets in 48 Hours
Advance bookings for the upcoming war drama Border 2 are gaining strong momentum ahead of its theatrical release. With two days still left before the film hits cinemas, the Sunny Deol-starrer has already sold more than one lakh tickets nationwide, indicating a solid opening at the box office.
Strong Start at the Box Office
Border 2 opened advance bookings earlier this week and has since witnessed a steady rise in ticket sales. The film is currently playing across nearly 9,000 shows in India, with additional screens being added as demand continues to grow.
Advance Booking Numbers So Far
Trade estimates suggest that Border 2 has collected close to ₹3.5 crore in advance bookings for its opening day alone. With premium formats and more shows expected to open soon, industry watchers believe the final figure could climb further before release.
Ticket sales are reportedly accelerating on major platforms, with thousands of tickets being booked every hour as audience interest builds.
Outperforming Recent Releases
At the same stage before release, Border 2 has already surpassed the advance booking numbers of Sunny Deol’s previous release, which went on to open with respectable box office figures. The film has also moved ahead of Ranveer Singh’s recent hit Dhurandhar in terms of pre-release ticket sales.
Positive Sign for Opening Day
Given that Dhurandhar recorded a strong opening despite lower advance bookings at this point, Border 2’s faster pace is being viewed as a promising indicator for its first-day collections.
About the Film
Border 2 is the sequel to the iconic 1997 war film Border. Directed by Anurag Singh, the 2026 release features Sunny Deol in a pivotal role, alongside Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty.
The film is backed by producers Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, J.P. Dutta, and Nidhi Dutta, and is scheduled to release in theatres on January 23, just ahead of the Republic Day weekend.
Box Office Expectations
With patriotic themes, a holiday release window, and strong advance booking trends, Border 2 is expected to open on a high note. Trade analysts are closely watching how the final two days of advance sales shape up before the film’s big release.
