Batwara 1947 Box Office Collection Day 2 Updates: Sunny Deol film earns over Rs 26 crore
On Day 2, Sunny Deol's patriotic drama Batwara 1947 grossed Rs 13.50 crore in India, bringing its total collections to Rs 19.25 crore. Internationally, the film added Rs 2 crore to its earnings, reaching Rs 26.41 crore worldwide. The movie enjoyed a total occupancy of 35.37% across 8,071 showings, with strong performances in morning (13.92%), afternoon (44.08%), evening (45.77%), and night (37.69%) screenings.
Delhi-NCR led with 44.5% occupancy in 807 venues, while Mumbai contributed 30% from 527 shows. The Independence Day holiday on August 15 likely contributed to the boost in revenue. However, Batwara 1947 has faced mixed reviews from critics, with one stating that while the film's message is timely, its storytelling appears dated and lacks contemporary relevance.
Starring Preity Zinta and returning the talented Sunny Deol with director Rajkumar Santoshi, Batwara 1947 also reunited the cast with actor Ali Fazal and newcomer Abhimanyu Singh.
