Border 2 Box Office Footfalls: Crossing 1 Crore Admissions; Can it Reach the Original Border's 3.7 Crore?

While box office collections are often inflated by rising ticket prices, the true measure of a film's impact is its Footfalls (theatrical admissions). Bollywood has a long-standing love affair with Army Films, but only a few have managed to mobilize the masses in crore-plus numbers. With Sunny Deol's Border 2 currently storming the box office, it has officially entered the elite club of war films with over 1 crore admissions in just its first week. However, the path to the original 1997 Border’s legendary record is still a mountain to climb. Even after 29 years, J.P. Dutta's Border remains the gold standard for war cinema in India. With a staggering 3.70 crore footfalls, it attracted nearly double the audience of modern-day blockbusters like Uri: The Surgical Strike. In an era where a 2-crore footfall is considered a massive success, Border's reach across single screens and rural India remains an untouchable benchmark. Bollywood's Army Films: Theatrical Footfalls Comparison MOVIE NAME (YEAR) THEATRICAL FOOTFALLS BOX OFFICE STATUS Border (1997) 3.71 Crore All-Time Blockbuster Uri: The Surgical Strike (2019) 1.82 Crore All-Time Blockbuster Border 2 (2026) 1.15 Crore* Trending Blockbuster Lakshya (2004) 78.4 Lakhs Average (Cult Classic) LOC Kargil (2003) 48.0 Lakhs FLop Sam Bahadur (2023) 47.0 Lakhs Hit Ikkis (2026) 14.2 Lakhs Flop 120 Bahadur (2025) 9.0 Lakhs Flop Paltan (2018) 7.3 Lakhs Flop (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   Border 2 is currently trending at an exceptional pace. While it has already dwarfed the footfalls of viusally impressive biopics like Vicky Kaushal's Sam Bahadur (47 Lakhs) and the recently released 120 Bahadur (9 Lakhs), it is now chasing the 1.82 crore mark set by Uri. The reason for this massive disparity in footfalls highlights the sheer difference in market scale between urban biopics and mass-market entertainers. While Sam Bahadur was a highly successful and efficient hit, finishing its global run at ₹130.3 Cr, Border 2 has operated on an entirely different level of market penetration. By amassing ₹309 Cr globally and clocking 1.15 crore admissions in just 8 days, the Sunny Deol and Varun Dhawan starrer has already eclipsed the lifetime reach of urban-centric hits. This trend proves that while multiplex-heavy films like Sam Bahadur have a solid loyal base, the patriotic mass-sentiment of the Indian heartland offers a significantly higher box office ceiling, catapulting Border 2 into the elite tier of Indian cinema. War Movie Hall of Fame: Footfall Milestones 1. The 3-Crore Club: Border (1997) (Only war film to ever cross this milestone in India) 2. The 1.5-Crore Club: Uri (2019) (Defined the modern era of war films with high repeat value) 3. The Fast-Track 1-Crore: Border 2 (2026) (Fastest war movie sequel to reach 1.15 Crore admissions) 4. OTT Impact: Shershaah & Pippa (Bypassed theaters; was reported as the most-watched Indian film on Amazon Prime Video in India at the time of its release) With no major competition for the next week, Border 2 is expected to comfortably cross the 1.5 crore footfall mark by its second weekend. While matching the monumental 3.7 crore footfall mark of the original Border remains a daunting task in the modern era of shorter theatrical windows, the current momentum suggests we shouldn't rule anything out just yet. For now, Border 2 is almost certain to challenge Uri: The Surgical Strike for the #2 spot on the all-time list of war films. Whether it can go the full distance to claim the absolute #1 spot is a wait and watch scenario for the trade. However, the data proves one thing clearly: the Indian audience will always show up in crores for a war story that perfectly blends high-stakes emotion, grounded action, and the right Mass treatment

Dhurandhar Box Office: Ranveer Singh Starrer Challenges Stree 2 for #1 Spot; Beats Jawan and Uri in Just 3 Days of 6th Week Bollywood

Dhurandhar Box Office: Ranveer Singh Starrer Challenges Stree 2 for #1 Spot; Beats Jawan and Uri in Just 3 Days of 6th Week

Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar continues to be an unstoppable force at the Hindi box office. As it enters its sixth week, the film is demonstrating unprecedented theatrical stamina. While the 6th week is still in progress, the collections from the first three days alone have sent shockwaves through the industry, placing the film among the top three highest 6th-week grossers of all time already. The true scale of Dhurandhar's success is visible when comparing its 6th weekend (3 days) to the full 6th-week (7 days) totals of other legendary hits. In just Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, Dhurandhar has collected a massive ₹15.4 Crores. With this 3-day total, it has already comfortably surpassed the full-week collections of Uri: The Surgical Strike (₹11.59 Cr), Jawan (₹10.59 Cr), and Pushpa 2 (₹7.96 Cr). Currently, it stands at Rank #3, trailing only behind Stree 2 and Chhaava. Dhurandhar 6th Weekend Breakdown: 6th Friday (Day 36): ₹3.5 Cr 6th Saturday (Day 37): ₹5.75 Cr (64% jump) 6th Sunday (Day 38): ₹6.15 Cr Total (3 Days): ₹15.40 Cr With four days (Monday to Thursday) still remaining in its 6th week, Dhurandhar is mathematically positioned to take the #1 spot. It currently needs only ₹0.16 Cr to overtake Chhaava for the #2 spot and roughly ₹3.21 Cr to surpass Stree 2's all-time record of ₹18.60 Cr. Given the current trend and strong occupancy, it is widely expected that by the end of its 42nd day, Dhurandhar will emerge as the new all-time record holder for the highest 6th week in Hindi cinema history. Top 10 Highest 6th Week Hindi Nett CollectionsRANKMOVIE NAME6TH WEEK NETT (HINDI)1Stree 2 (2024)₹ 18.60 Cr2Chhaava (2025)₹ 15.55 Cr3Dhurandhar (2025)₹ 15.40 Cr (Only 3 Days)4Uri: The Surgical Strike₹ 11.59 Cr5Jawan₹ 10.59 Cr6Pathaan₹ 8.85 Cr7Pushpa 2: The Rule₹ 7.96 Cr8Drishyam 2₹ 6.03 Cr9Gadar - Ek Prem Katha₹ 6.01 Cr10Pushpa: The Rise₹ 5.9 Cr The fact that Dhurandhar is even being compared to the full-week totals of Stree 2 and Chhaava while only having three days of data is a testament to its incredible pull. Much like Gadar or Uri, this film has found a permanent place in the hearts of the audience, with repeat viewings fueling its late-run surge. If the weekday holds remain steady, Dhurandhar is not just looking to break the record—it is looking to set a new one in the ₹21-22 Crore range.

Dhurandhar: From the High Josh of Uri to a Massive Cinematic War Inside Aditya Dhar's War Room

In the world of cinema, some directors create scenes, while others orchestrate missions. Aditya Dhar belongs firmly to the latter category. As we stand on the brink of his massive December 5, 2025 release, Dhurandhar, it is fascinating to step into Aditya Dhar's War Room to understand how a filmmaker who started with a precision strike has now evolved to command an all-out cinematic war. From the patriotic roar of Uri: The Surgical Strike to the gritty, sprawling universe of Dhurandhar, here is how Dhar has redefined the Indian action genre. Back in 2019, Aditya Dhar entered the battlefield with Uri: The Surgical Strike, a film that was less of a movie and more of a national emotion. Starring a then-rising Vicky Kaushal, the film was a textbook example of tactical filmmaking. Produced on a budget of ₹42 Crore, it defied every trade prediction to emerge as an All Time Blockbuster. The film obliterated records, minting an India Net Collection of ₹244.14 Cr (India Gross: ₹293.75 Cr) and an Overseas Collection of ₹48.00 Cr, taking its Worldwide total to a staggering ₹341.75 Cr. Not only did it stand as the highest-grossing Hindi film of 2019, but it also cemented its legacy as the 10th highest-grossing Hindi film of all time. The famous dialogue How's the Josh? transitioned from a script line to a cultural greeting, proving that you don't need a massive budget to win the war—just conviction, technical finesse, and a pulse on the nation's sentiment. Fast forward to 2025, and the strategy in Dhar's war room has shifted from efficiency to colossal scale. If Uri was a covert operation, Dhurandhar is a declaration of war. Marking his return to the director's chair after six years, Dhar has assembled what can only be described as the Avengers of Spy Dramas. The film stars Ranveer Singh in his first-ever intense espionage avatar, backed by industry heavyweights Sanjay Dutt, R. Madhavan, Akshaye Khanna, and Arjun Rampal. The sheer assembly of this cast suggests that Dhar is no longer the tactical strategist; he is now the commander of a massive cinematic fleet. The most significant evolution in Dhar's filmmaking is visible in the creative risks he is taking with Dhurandhar. Unlike the U/A-rated patriotism of Uri, Dhurandhar dives deep into the dark, bloody world of international espionage. The film has been certified A (Adults Only) due to its intense violence and realistic action, a brave move for a commercial potboiler. Furthermore, Dhar has refused to compromise on his vision, locking the runtime at 3 hours, 34 minutes, and 1 second, making it the longest Bollywood film in over 15 years. This isn't just a movie; it's an immersive experience designed to test the endurance and excitement of the audience. Aditya Dhar's journey from 2019 to 2025 highlights a filmmaker who refuses to play it safe. With Uri, he proved he could make a profitable, critically acclaimed film on a tight budget. With Dhurandhar, he is testing the limits of star power and storytelling duration. As the film gears up for its release this Friday, one thing is certain: the War Room is active, the plans are drawn, and Aditya Dhar is ready to launch his biggest mission yet.

'Uri' director Aditya Dhar opens up about his next 'Ashwatthama'

Mumbai, April 30 (IANS) National Award-winning film director Aditya Dhar is gearing up for his next, "The Immortal Ashwatthama". He says that the film should be a big canvas project, adding that he has always been fascinated by the titular mythological character.## "One of the reasons why I chose to weave a story around a mythological character like Ashwatthama from 'Mahabharat' was that, though all the characters in that epic are celestial, personally I felt that Ashwatthama is a character with all the flaws that even we have -- ego issues, jealousy, anger. These flaws made him human. I think we can connect with him and I find him relevant even in the present time. He is an immortal character, which means he is supposed to be alive even now. So you see, Ashwatthama is a character of the present time," Aditya told IANS.## The film will be produced by Ronnie Screwvala and Vicky Kaushal is to play the protagonist.## "Scripting my concept into a film is a little complicated because I also want the story to be accessible to a wide audience and therefore I needed time. So, basically I am utilizing this period of lockdown to work on that -- work on pre-production," added the director whose last release "Uri: The Surgical Strike" was a blockbuster.## The entertainment industry, like any other, is expected to face a tough time economically due to the current global pandemic, and Aditya feels everyone will have to redesign the business side of storytelling.## "Firstly every story has its correct budget and 'Ashwatthama' is a big canvas film. Now, one has to understand the mathematics of our business. In India, we cannot make a film of Rs 500 crore and expect fast recovery. We made 'Uri' for Rs 28 CR and it looked like a film with a budget of around Rs 60 crore. So basically we are a team of people who can offer you a grand-looking film within a small budget," he said.## "I am a fellow from a middle-class family, and I know the art of 'paisa bachao', I am quite 'jugadu' that way. Having said that post-COVID-19, we really have to think about a new design of budget -- how to change the percentage of profit etc. Hopefully, we will sort that out, because Ronnie is best in business," Aditya signed off.## Stay tuned...
