With Rs. 53 crore, Sunny Deol's military action drama, Border 2, recorded the second biggest Republic Day of all time at the Hindi box office.
Border 2, directed by Anurag Singh, registered a smashing day on Republic Day, collecting Rs. 53 crore net at the Hindi box office. The movie recorded the second biggest Republic Day of all time, leaving Hrithik Roshan's Fighter behind by a huge margin.
Starring Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Ahan Shetty, Border 2 trailed only behind Shah Rukh Khan starrer Pathaan which collected Rs. 67.80 crore net on the same day in 2023. That means, Pathaan retained its top spot among the biggest Republic Days of all time in Hindi, while the rest slipped by one spot. Fighter now slipped to the third place, with a box office day of Rs. 35 crore. Padmaavat secured the fourth spot with its Republic Day collection of Rs. 30 crore net in Hindi.
Besides Pathaan, another Shah Rukh Khan movie, Raees also found a place in this elite list. Despite releasing in a clash with Kaabil, Raees managed to net around Rs. 26.25 crore net in 2017. It was the biggest Republic Day collection until its release, beating Jai Ho's Rs. 25 crore record. Check out the full list below:
