'Gadar 2' had an overall occupancy of 88% in the HIndi belt. Many single screen theatres in small cities are running to full houses. Mainly targeting the North Indian audiences, 'Gadar 2' has taken the lion's share of profits from the North while Rajinikanth's 'Jailer' is smashing box office records in South India.
'Gadar 2' is clashing with Akshay Kumar's 'OMG 2' at the box office. As per a Box Office India report, had 'Gadar 2' released solo, the Sunny Deol film would have done even better.
'Gadar 2' collected Rs. 40 cr on Day 1, Rs. 43 cr on Day 2, Rs. 51 cr on day 2, TRs. 38 cr on day 4, and Rs. 55 cr on Day 5 taking the total tally to Rs. 229 crores in India alone.

Film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh initiated a poll on Twitter asking netizens if 'Gadar 2' will surpass the lifetime business of 'Pathaan'.
The first ‘Gadar’ was released in 2001. It clashed with ‘Lagaan’ and became one of the biggest blockbusters of that year earning Rs. 130 crores. The film was also directed by Anil Sharma.
