Border 2 Box Office Collection Worldwide Day 19 Update: The Anurag Singh directorial Border 2 recently crossed the coveted Rs 300 crore mark in India. However, it might not be able to stretch that number very far as the film has been posting single-digit numbers for over a week. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Border 2 collected Rs 2.84 cr as per the early estimates on day 19 of its theatrical run.

While the final figures of the film still waits, the worldwide collection currently stands at Rs 464.22 cr, as shared by Bollywood Hungama.

Despite the decline in collections, Border 2 stands as Sunny Deol’s second-highest-grossing film. His top-grossing release to date remains Gadar 2, which amassed approximately Rs 525 crore net at the domestic box office and Rs 686 crore worldwide.

While trade discussions focus on its box office standing, Border 2 producer Nidhi Dutta has emphasised a more personal measure of success. She told The Print, “I am extremely happy that the audience understood my intention behind this film. I am glad I was able to honour my father’s (JP Dutta) legacy. The goal was never to outdo or hamper his legacy. Just honour. He is proud of the film. But, he isn’t affected by the business it does. Even the success of Border, which was unimaginable at that time, also never affected him.”
