It’s time for the biggest sequel ever to arrive from Bollywood. Biggest because Sholay, Mughal-e-Azam, Hum Aapke Hain Kaun, Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge and Gadar – Ek Prem Katha are some of the iconic all-time blockbusters with maximum footfalls that the industry has seen ever since its inception. However, the only film which even dared to have a sequel is Gadar – Ek Prem Katha, and now that Gadar 2 is arriving after more than a couple of decades, all eyes are on how big it will eventually turn out to be.
The good part is that the entire team has been retained, be it the lead hero Sunny Deol, director Anil Sharma or producer Zee. Not just that, as even the leading lady Ameesha Patel is back, and also the son Utkarsh Sharma who has grown up now.

That’s not at all, as even the actress who played Sunny Deol’s aunt in the original is back. This could well be a record of sorts where the entire team is intact even after 22 years. No wonder, Gadar 2 has managed to form a connect with the audiences in a big way and from one generation to the other, it’s now changing hands.

Still, one would have expected a start in the range of 10-15 crores at best since Sunny Deol’s last hit was exactly 10 years back when he had done Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 (2013). However, all of this is set to change since he would be giving his career’s biggest opening with 30 crores all set to come for Gadar 2.
In fact, once the showcasing issues are resolved today, then even 35 crores is a possibility. However, rest assured, the film is assured of a bountiful weekend (or a 5-day extended weekend including Independence Day on Tuesday), with the big holiday of Independence Day set to be unimaginable for the box office.
