A day before yesterday, the internet was stormed by the official announcement of Border 2. We all know that the film was being discussed, but no information was shared directly by the makers. But now, as the film has got an official stamp on it, everyone has become excited to relive the magic that happened several years ago. To add more fuel to the fire, we’ll be revisiting the historic box office success witnessed by Border.
Directed by renowned filmmaker JP Dutta, the film was released on June 13, 1997. Upon its arrival in theatres, the biggie received highly positive reviews from critics, and several aspects of the film were praised. The direction, story, screenplay, scale of production, music, performances, and action—almost everything related to this epic war saga—were praised by critics.
With huge pre-release buzz and critical acclaim, Border turned out to be a goldmine at the Indian box office. Not only did the ticket-buying audience give a big thumbs up, but the film also enjoyed tremendous repeat value. As a result, it saw houseful boards at several theatres for weeks. After running successfully, the biggie ended its run at the Indian box office by earning a staggering 39.60 crores, becoming the highest-grossing film of 1997 in India.
