Sunny Deol and Amisha Patel's Gadar 2is showing no signs of slowing down, smashing box office records one after another. As per Bollywood trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the film has surpassed the lifetime earnings of blockbuster movies like War and Bajrangi Bhaijaan. And that's not all – he's predicting that today (Sunday, August 20) it will even outshine the earnings of Tiger Zinda Hai, PK, and Sanju. It would not be wrong to say that Gadar 2 is on a mission to conquer the box office, leaving a trail of broken records in its wake. In his tweet, Taran Adarsh wrote, “#Gadar2 is a #BO MONSTER … Crossed *lifetime biz* of #War, #BajrangiBhaijaan [on Sat]… Will cross #TigerZindaHai, #PK, #Sanju TODAY [Sun]…”
Looking ahead, Taran Adarsh confidently predicted that Gadar 2 is set to surpass Dangal's record on Monday. And that's not all. The expert mentioned that the next milestone in sight is surpassing KGF 2. Taran Adarsh said, “Will cross #Dangal TOMORROW [Mon]… Next target: #KGF2 #Hindi [3rd highest grossing film]… [Week 2] Fri ₹20.50 cr, Sat ₹31.07 cr. Total: ₹336.20 cr. #India biz. #Boxoffice”
On Saturday, Gadar 2 achieved a remarkable milestone by crossing the ₹300-crore mark at the box office. Taran Adarsh announced the news on his Twitter handle by writing, “300 NOT OUT… #Gadar2continues to ROAR… Mass pockets are in an altogether different league… Also, the contribution from Tier 2 and Tier 3 sectors will set a new benchmark… Expect BIGGG JUMP on [second] Sat and Sun…”
In the first week itself, Gadar 2 collected ₹284.63 crore. Taran Adarsh wrote, “The craze for this film is UNPARALLELED”. He further stated, “After a very, very long time, the multiplexes, as well as single screens at mass sectors, are experiencing this kind of HYSTERIA.”
Even while writing the review for Gadar 2, Taran Adarsh gave it four-and-a-half stars and called it “old-school desi entertainment at its best”. As per him, the movie “has it all: drama, emotions, action, two beautiful songs [from the first part] and the hand pump sequence, of course”.
Gadar 2 clashed with Akshay Kumar and Pankaj Tripathi's OMG 2. Both movies were released on August 11th.
