The film 'Border 2' hit theaters on January 23rd. Audiences were eagerly awaiting this war film. The film's trailer was very well-received, and the songs were also trending. Now that the film is in theaters, audiences have given it immense love on its first day. Since the release of 'Dhurandhar', it was observed that no film released afterward could stand up to it. However, 'Border 2' has broken 'Dhurandhar's record on its very first day. Find out how 'Border 2' performed on its first day. Also, what was the fate of 'Dhurandhar' and 'Happy Patel'?

According to Sacnilk's report, 'Border 2' collected Rs 30 crore on its opening day.

In terms of first-day earnings, it has surpassed 'Dhurandhar'.
'Dhurandhar', which was released on December 5th, earned Rs 28 crore on its opening day.

'Border' VS 'Border 2'
The film 'Border' (1997) earned Rs 1.10 crore on its first day. According to Sacnilk's report, its total net box office collection was ₹39.30 crore. 'Border 2' will surpass 'Border's all-time collection on its second day itself. The film will benefit from three consecutive holidays. After the weekend, it will also fully capitalize on the January 26th holiday on Monday.

'Dhurandhar' Box Office
Since its release, the film 'Dhurandhar' has been dominating the box office. It hasn't allowed any subsequent releases to stand a chance, be it 'Ikkiis', 'Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri', or 'Happy Patel' and 'Rahu Ketu'. Prabhas's 'The Raja Saab' also got swept away in the 'Dhurandhar' storm. Yesterday, Friday, 'Dhurandhar' completed 50 days in theaters. Although 'Border 2' surpassed its first-day collection, 'Dhurandhar' still performed reasonably well even after its release. Yesterday, on its 50th day, 'Dhurandhar' earned ₹55 lakh. Its total box office collection has reached ₹831.05 crore.

'Happy Patel Dangerous Spy'
Aamir Khan Productions' film 'Happy Patel Dangerous Spy', starring and directed by Vir Das, was released in theaters on January 16th. With the arrival of 'Border 2', it seems to have bid farewell to the box office. The film earned ₹20 lakh on Thursday, its seventh day. However, the figures for its earnings on Friday, its eighth day, are not yet available.
