The record-breaking spree of Gadar 2 continued through the second weekend. The film remained so strong on all the three days of the second weekend that its net collections have created a new benchmark which may be difficult to surpass.
After collecting an astounding Rs. 284.63 crore in the first week, the Gadar Ek Prem Katha sequel started its second weekend with a take of Rs. 20.50 crore which is a new record as no film in the past has recorded this kind of a collection figure on the second Friday. The film also crossed the Rs. 300-crore threshold on the eighth day as its total for 8 days went up to Rs. 305.13 crore. Collections on Saturday sky-rocketed to Rs. 31.07 crore, and further to Rs. 38.90 crore on Sunday. Needless to add, the collections of both, the second Saturday and the second Sunday, are records just like the figure for the second Friday was. In this way, the film’s second weekend closed at a record-breaking Rs. 90.47 crore. The total for 10 days, therefore, stood at Rs. 375.10 crore. It is anybody’s guess that the film will outshine K.G.F. Chapter 2 (dubbed) at the start of the third weekend itself.
The only two films still ahead of it after the third weekend would be Bahubali 2: The Conclusion (dubbed) (Rs. 510 crore) and Pathaan (Rs. 540 crore).
