The roar of Border 2 at the box office shows no signs of fading. After a spectacular 18-day journey that saw the film storm into the ₹300 crore club, the focus now shifts to its 19th day (Tuesday, February 10, 2026). Despite the typical weekday slowdown, early trends suggest that Sunny Deol’s war drama is maintaining a rock-solid grip, especially in the mass circuits.
Day 19 Prediction: Stability is the Key
Following a steady Monday performance, Border 2 is expected to follow a stable trajectory on Day 19.
- Projected Collection: Analysts predict the film will earn approximately ₹1.50 crore net today.
- Mass Circuit Dominance: The film continues to perform exceptionally well in single screens and B-centers across North India. A collection in the range of ₹1.40 – ₹1.60 crore on a Tuesday would indicate high audience retention, ensuring a smooth run until the next weekend.
18-Day Box Office Recap: A Historic Run
According to Sacnilk, Border 2 has already become one of the most successful sequels in Indian cinema. By the end of its 18th day (Monday), the film had amasses a massive total.
| Period / Day | India Net Collection | Status |
| Week 1 Total | ₹224.25 Crore | Historic Opening |
| Week 2 Total | ₹70.15 Crore | Strong Hold |
| Day 15 (3rd Friday) | ₹2.85 Crore | Steady |
| Day 16 (3rd Saturday) | ₹5.25 Crore | Weekend Jump |
| Day 17 (3rd Sunday) | ₹7.25 Crore | Peak Sunday |
| Day 18 (3rd Monday) | ₹1.85 Crore (Est.) | Monday Test |
| Total Net Collection | ₹311.60 Crore | All-Time Blockbuster |
Occupancy & Show Management
On its 18th day, Border 2 recorded an overall Hindi occupancy of 6.83%. While morning shows started at 4.49%, the footfalls saw a significant rise during afternoon (8.12%) and evening (7.89%) shows. Even with over 1,450 shows in major regions like Delhi-NCR and Mumbai, the film is successfully managing to attract audiences despite being in its third week.
Record-Breaking Feats
- Beating the Giants: With a net total of ₹311.60 crore, Border 2 has already surpassed the lifetime earnings of Salman Khan’s Tiger 3 (₹286 crore) and Padmaavat (₹303 crore).
- The Next Targets: The film is now inches away from overtaking Hrithik Roshan’s War (₹318 crore) and Salman Khan’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan (₹320 crore).
- Global Phenomenon: The worldwide gross collection has crossed the ₹458 crore mark, making it the highest-grossing film of 2026 so far.
Verdict: Can it Reach ₹350 Crore?
While the weekday pace has normalized, Border 2 is currently chasing a lifetime target of ₹325–₹350 crore. The real challenge will arrive this Friday with the release of Shahid Kapoor’s O Romeo, which is expected to take away a significant chunk of screens. However, given the emotional connect of the Border brand, the film is likely to see another surge during the upcoming Valentine’s Day weekend.
