Bollywood superstar Sunny Deol's film 'Border 2' has become the biggest opener of 2026 and is also the highest-grossing film of the year so far.

According to the official statement from the makers, Border 2 has earned ₹193 crore in four days. This means that the film, made on a budget of ₹250 crore, has recovered 70.35% of its budget in four days. The film still needs at least ₹81.52 crore to be considered a success.
