Sunny Deol's blockbuster Gadar 2 completed its journey to the Rs 500 crore mark on Sunday. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh reported Sunday's earnings as Rs 7.80 crore, bringing the film's total to Rs 501.17 crore at the domestic box office. Gadar 2's massive earnings have been powered by the mass circuits in the recent weeks – the film just completed its fourth weekend in theatres. Gadar 2's supremacy in the heartland could now be challenged by the arrival of Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan this Thursday. Gadar 2, also starring Ameesha Patel, released on August 11 and has shattered several box office records since.
"Gadar 2 continues to dominate in mass pockets. Will be interesting to see how it performs in the heartland/Hindi belt once Jawan arrives (on Tursday). (Week 4) Friday 5.20 crore, Saturday 5.72 crore, Sunday 7.80 crore. Total Rs 501.17 crore. India biz," Taran Adarsh wrote in his post.
