Border 2 Box Office Day 1: Set To Break Varun Dhawan’s 6-Year-Old Opening Record!

Border 2 is the first magnum opus of Bollywood in 2026, and it is scheduled to release on January 23. Starring Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahaan Shetty, the film has generated good buzz around itself, especially in the mass centers, and is likely to exceed expectations on its day 1. For Varun, it aims to be his biggest opener ever at the Indian box office by breaking his six-year-old record.

Border 2 is enjoying good buzz

The teaser for the Border sequel received a positive response from the masses, particularly due to Sunny Deol’s powerful presence. A few days ago, the much-awaited song “Ghar Kab Aaoge” was released online, and it quickly stormed the internet. Since it was a reprised version of the iconic and evergreen song “Sandese Aate Hain” from Border, it instantly resonated with the audience.

All set for a strong start at the Indian box office

With over two more weeks to go, Border 2 is likely to elevate its buzz with trailer and other promotional assets, thus setting the stage for a solid start at the Indian box office. As of now, it is in a position to deliver a start of 25 crore+ net. With such a start, it is set to record Varun Dhawan’s biggest opening ever.
