Border 2, directed by Anurag Singh, closed its advance booking by selling around 1.40 lakh tickets in the top two national chains, PVR Inox and Cinepolis, for the opening day. While in national chains, advances for Border 2 lag behind several films (ranked 7th). The overall advances are likely going to be better than all except Chhaava, which had Rs. 11.50 crore nett advance for its opening day.
As per estimates, Border 2 raked in advances of around Rs. 9.50-10 crore nett. This is because its advances are better than most of the other films in non-national chains, while for Saiyaara (Rs. 8 crore nett), the difference is mainly due to ticket prices being lower for that film.
Border 2 also has a better spread of sales over its extended weekend, with a big national holiday on Monday. The military drama starring Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty is all set for a banger start at the box office. As per Pinkvilla Predicts, Border 2 is all set for a banger start of Rs. 30-37 crore at the Indian box office, with a pinpoint forecast of Rs. 32 crore net.
