Article by Tanveer Alam

Mumbai: The release of Gadar 2, starring Bollywood heavyweights Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel, has sent shockwaves through the industry with its staggering box office numbers, even amidst stiff competition.

The film made a monumental ₹55.40 crore on Independence Day, setting the stage for a robust week. Even on a working Wednesday, its sixth day at the cinema, the film garnered ₹34.50 crore, according to industry tracker Sacnilk. This robust performance brings Gadar 2's total domestic nett collection to a whopping ₹263.48 crore.

Released on August 11, Gadar 2 embarked on its cinematic journey with an impressive ₹40.1 crore on its opening day. It's worth noting that the film continued to draw audiences despite facing competition from OMG 2, which premiered the same day, and Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, which had maintained a strong box office presence since its July 28 release.

In just its first week, Gadar 2 has clinched the title of the second-highest domestic grosser of the year, following closely behind Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan, which raked in ₹543.05 crore, as reported by Bollywood Hungama. Directed by the seasoned Anil Sharma, Gadar 2 surpassed The Kerala Story, which had a lifetime collection of ₹242.20 crore.

A significant facet of Gadar 2's success is its lineage. The film is a sequel to the 2001 blockbuster Gadar, which dominated the box office charts that year. In a historic face-off, Gadar was released alongside Lagaan. Both films marked their territory, with Gadar becoming the frontrunner in India, while Lagaan secured international accolades, including an Academy Award nomination.

Reflecting on the film's monumental success, Sunny Deol, at a recent press conference, reiterated his commitment to high-quality cinema. "I promise all my fans that I'm only going to make good films like these. They say films for ‘masses’. What do you mean by that word? Public is public and that means everyone," he remarked.

In conclusion, the roaring success of Gadar 2 underlines the timeless appeal of its lead actors and the undying spirit of its narrative. It's a testament to Bollywood's ability to evolve while keeping its core ethos intact, ensuring that cinema lovers continue to be enthralled, film after film.
