The patriotic saga Border 2 has been a dominant force at the box office since its release on January 23, 2026. After a strong 18-day run that saw the film comfortably cross the ₹310 crore milestone, all eyes are now on Day 19. While the “working day” factor is in full effect, trade analysts and early trends suggest that the film is well-positioned to maintain its steady flow of revenue.
Border 2 Day 19 Prediction: The Tuesday Test
Following a standard Monday dip, the film is expected to remain stable on its 19th day (Tuesday, February 10, 2026). Based on current trajectory and occupancy trends in mass circuits:
- Estimated Earnings: The film is projected to collect approximately ₹1.50 crore on Day 19.
- The Trend: If the film manages to hold within the ₹1.40 – ₹1.60 crore range, it would indicate a very healthy “weekday hold,” suggesting it will continue to pull audiences until the next major weekend surge.
