Border 2 box office collection day 24: Sunny Deol and Varun Dhawan's Border 2 has lost its steam, almost heading towards the end of its ultimate theatrical run. As O Romeo and Tu Yaa Main released on Friday (February 13), the number of screens allotted to the movie was reduced, resulting in a massive drop in numbers. It witnessed a rise in numbers on Saturday, but somehow couldn't touch the Rs 350-crore mark at the domestic box office.

Border 2 (Day 24) Vs O Romeo (Day 3) Box Office Collection On Sunday (February 15)

On the day, India and Pakistan competed against each other in the T20 World Cup match, Border 2 and O Romeo suffered a fall in terms of earnings. As the match was played at 7pm, the night shows were affected. Considering it was a Ind Vs Pak match, all eyeballs remained glued on television and OTT, and cinema had to take a backseat.

On Sunday (February 15), Border earned Rs 1.5 crore, according to Sacnilk's early estimates. Shahid Kapoor's O Romeo minted Rs 9 crore, clearly getting affected by the India vs Pakistan clash.

O Romeo 3 days box office collection stood at ₹30.15 crore net, after its opening weekend. The jump from Friday to Saturday equals a 48.82% growth, which is notable for a new release. However, the momentum did not fully carry into Sunday. Day three collections fell to ₹9 crore, which marks a 28.85% decline from Saturday.
