Sunny Deol's Gadar 2 has proved yet again that his box office draw remains undiminished. The movie has roared past the 500-crore-mark in worldwide collections on its 11th day.
Gadar 2: The Katha Continues has been sensational so far with its day-wise trending at the domestic as well as overseas box office. In India, the movie has grossed approximately Rs 459 crores (388.60 crores net) while the overseas collection is around 48 crores (estimated) which takes its total collection to around 507 crores in just 11 days, according to Sacnilk.
Helmed by Anil Sharma, Gadar 2 collected Rs 17.60 crore so far on its 11th day at the box office.
