Sunny Deol’s Gadar 2 has entered the ₹300 crore-club. As per trade analysts , the movie has raked in net box office collections of ₹305 Crore as of Friday at the domestic box office.
The movie, which is a sequel of the movie released in 2001, has strongly benefited from the long holiday weekend of Independence Day. On August 15, the movie earned a whopping ₹55 Crore.
