The war drama ‘Border 2’, headlined by Sunny Deol and a stellar ensemble, continues its rampage at the box office, crossing 250 crores worldwide in record time. With stellar reviews and packed theaters, the sequel to the 1997 classic is redefining blockbuster success.
Stealing the spotlight off-screen is ex-Army Major Khusboo Patni, who recently caught the film and couldn’t hold back her admiration for Varun Dhawan’s acting chops. The women’s safety activist took to Instagram, sharing Varun’s intense look as Major Hoshiyar Singh Dahiya. Her caption gushed, ‘Border 2 was incredible. Varun Dhawan’s portrayal of Hoshiyar Singh Dahiya is legendary and will be remembered always. Old memories from my training days are fresh again. We live and die as siblings in arms. Never forgetting our name, salt, and scars. Jai Hind, Jai Bhavani.’
Khusboo’s tribute resonated deeply, blending personal nostalgia with cinematic praise. Her Republic Day post earlier, featuring her in crisp uniform with walkie-talkie and shades, had already gone viral, showcasing her commanding presence.
Box office numbers tell the tale of triumph: Day 1 brought 32 crores domestically, Saturday 36.5 crores, Sunday a whopping 54 crores, Monday 59 crores, and Tuesday 19.5 crores. India’s total nears 200 crores, with global earnings at 270.7 crores—a testament to audience love for heartfelt patriotism.
Looking ahead, ‘Mardani 3’ arrives January 30, promising a clash of titans. But ‘Border 2’s emotional pull and Varun’s standout role position it for continued dominance, inspiring a new generation with tales of valor.
