Sunny Deol’s “Gadar 2” Rewrites Cinema History: Breaks Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Pathaan’ Record, Crowned New Box Office King
Once again, Sunny Deol has proven his unstoppable force with the sensational success of “Gadar 2” at the box office. The film has raked in a whopping 135 crore rupees, with an incredible 52 crore collected in India on a single Sunday. This overwhelming support from both audiences and critics has left Sunny Deol absolutely thrilled, showcasing his status as an iconic superstar in the Indian film industry. And there’s more – Sunny has achieved something remarkable by becoming the first actor to hit the remarkable 100 crore club at the age of 60. This achievement is quite surprising but also incredibly impressive.
In a surprising turn of events, “Gadar 2” has not only broken records but has also outperformed Shah Rukh Khan’s blockbuster “Pathaan.” The film’s opening day collection of 52 crore surpasses “Pathaan’s” 39.25 crores, firmly establishing Sunny Deol’s dominance in the industry.
The longstanding feud between the two stars seems to have faded away. Shah Rukh Khan’s release of a teaser for “Jawan” had raised speculation of a playful dig at Sunny Deol with a villainous dialogue, but things have changed now. The old rivalry, stemming from Sunny Deol’s accusation that the makers of “Darr” favoured the villain character over the hero, seems to have been put to rest. Despite rumours of no communication for years, it’s clear that the two stars have mended their relationship. While they haven’t made public appearances together, their newfound camaraderie is evident.
Interestingly, Sunny Deol once indirectly criticized Shah Rukh Khan by saying that actors shouldn’t perform wedding dances, implying that such performances should be left to those who specialize in them. Although he didn’t mention names, many believed he was referring to Shah Rukh Khan, known for his energetic dance routines.
But let’s focus on the present. The extraordinary success of ‘Gadar 2’ has firmly established Sunny Deol as the undisputed ruler of the box office. The spotlight is undeniably on him, and his age of 60 seems to have only amplified his cinematic strength. Get ready, as Sunny Deol’s ‘Gadar 2’ is rewriting box office history and crowning a new king in the realm of cinema.
