Now the film is eyeing to break the lifetime records of Hrithik Roshan’s ‘War’ (318 crores) and Salman Khan’s ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ (320 crores).

Next chapter of JP Dutta’s legacy after 29 years

After a long wait of 29 years, when director Anurag Singh brought JP Dutta’s legacy on screen in the form of ‘Border 2’, expectations were sky high. The film not only fulfilled those expectations but also set new records in box office earnings. ‘Border 2’ brings to the screen another brave story of the India-Pakistan war of 1971. Varun Dhawan, Ahan Shetty and Diljit Dosanjh also play important roles in it.
