As per trade analyst Taran Adarsh, Gadar 2 is only the third Hindi film in the ₹500 crore club. The film has made ₹501.87 crore in just 24 days of its release. Previously the record was held by Siddharth Anand directorial Pathaan which breached the mark in 28 days. The Hindi version of Baahubali 2: The Conclusion is the third film to mint ₹500 crore at the domestic box office in 34 days. 

Gadar 2 chasing Baahubali 2 record

Even though the Ameesha Patel starrer has been pulling audiences to the theatres, the movie has seen a decline in its business in recent days. After almost a month of release and due to several new films hitting the big screens, the business of Gadar 2 has taken a hit. Though it has breached the ₹500 crore mark, it is yet to surpass Baahubali 2 (₹510.99 crore) and Pathaan (₹543 crore) to become the highest-grossing Hindi film of all time in India.
