According to early estimates by Sacnilk, the film raked in an impressive Rs 40 crore nett in India on its opening day, setting a strong foundation for its box office journey.

Interestingly, “Gadar 2” arrives on the scene 23 years after the release of its predecessor, “Gadar: Ek Prem Katha.” The enduring popularity of the original film coupled with the anticipation surrounding the sequel contributed to the film’s stellar opening.

Alongside Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel, the ensemble includes Manish Wadhwa, Gaurav Chopra, Luv Sinha, Simrat Kaur, Mir Sarwar, Rohit Choudhary, and Rakesh Bedi, among others. This diverse cast brings a range of characters to life, adding depth and dimension to the storytelling.
The music of “Gadar 2” holds its own, contributing to the film’s overall impact. The music is composed by Mithoon, a name synonymous with soulful melodies, while the background score is crafted by Monty Sharma, enhancing the cinematic experience with its emotive resonance.
As “Gadar 2” continues to draw audiences into theaters with its powerful narrative and captivating performances, it’s clear that the film is well on its way to creating a significant impact on the box office.
