Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel’s Gadar 2′ has taken the box office by storm with its collection. The film directed by Anil Sharma witnessed a grand opening and it looked like it would surpass the lifetime haul of the first ‘Gadar’ within its first weekend.
Sunny Deol who made his stupendous debut in the film ‘Betaab,’ has returned to the screen with yet another power-packed film and is delivering hits at 65. With performances by prolific actors and powerful dialogues and the iconic hand pump, ‘Gadar 2’ showcased Tara Singh and Sakeena’s legacy, set amidst the tumultuous Crush India Movement of 1971.
Despite locking horns with Akshay Kumar‘s ‘OMG 2’, ‘Gadar 2’ emerged to be the second-highest opener of 2023 after Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan. According to early estimates by Sacnilk, the film earned Rs 40 crore nett India on its first day. ‘Gadar 2’ was released 23 years after ‘Gadar: Ek Prem Katha’. Sunny Deol’s film, however, outperformed Prabhas’ big-budget mythological epic Adipurush, which debuted with Rs 32 crore. Given the weekend, it seems that the film will continue to soar to heights and eerge as another blockbuster of the year.
