Indeed, while the Day 1 collection sets the tone, the true test lies in the weekend numbers. The simultaneous release of Akshay Kumar’s OMG 2 on the same day has generated a considerable amount of attention. However, OMG 2 hasn’t achieved comparable numbers to Gadar 2. This clash at the box office was widely regarded as one of the most anticipated and talked-about clashes.

With two prominent actors like Akshay Kumar and Sunny Deol going head-to-head, it has certainly been an intense competition. As Gadar 2 led by Sunny Paaji seems to be holding its ground, the industry and fans alike are keenly awaiting to witness which film ultimately emerges as the victorious contender.

Bollywood Bubble gave Gadar 2, 1.5 out of 5 stars. A part of the review read, “Sunny Deol is the only saving grace in this movie I feel. He delivers a seeti-maar performance in Gadar 2. At the age of 66, Sunny Deol flawlessly does his action sequences and that’s worth watching on the big screens.”
