Border 2 Box Office Collection Day 9 Updates: Sunny Deol-starrer earns over Rs 20 crore on Sunday

Trade analyst Sumit Kadel took to X to share his views on the box office prospects of Salman Khan’s upcoming film Battle of Galwan, and the current trend of war films. He posted, “#battleofgalwan should not be taken lightly, it shouldn’t be underestimated at all. The first and most important reason is that films based on our armed forces and real-life heroes are currently in trend. #dhurandhar and #border2 success are recent examples. The second reason is that, unlike many other films, this one is not based on bygone era history. It is inspired by the recent India–China clash that took place in the Galwan Valley, where Indian soldiers engaged in hand-to-hand combat and eliminated many Chinese soldiers in a gory fight. It is an extraordinary story, the details of which are largely unknown to the audience. The third reason is #salmankhan. This is not a typical masala commercial film like Sikandar or Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan. It is a raw, intense, adrenaline-driven war film, something Salman Khan has never attempted before. The action and climax of the film could be its biggest strengths. I am not claiming it will collect Rs 400–500 crore, but if the film is well-made, there is nothing stopping it from crossing Rs 300 crore. That itself would be more than sufficient, considering it is being made on a controlled budget. Zyada halke me mat lo.. Yeh film fatt bhi sakti hai box office pe.”
