Son Of Sardaar 2 Box Office Prediction: Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur's Son Of Sardaar 2 is all set to hit the theatres on August 1, 2025. The sequel, directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, promises to deliver more action, drama and comedy, building on the success of its predecessor. With fans eagerly awaiting its release, the question on everyone's mind is whether Son of Sardaar 2 can break the records set by the original and make a mark in the box office.

Son Of Sardaar 2 Opening Day Prediction

Son of Sardaar 2, starring Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur, has made a notable start with advance bookings worth Rs 2.03 crore gross for its opening day, according to Filmy News Network. The film has sold around 1.26 lakh tickets across approximately 5,000 shows nationwide. Fans are taking advantage of the 50 per cent discount on tickets for the opening day, which seems to be boosting sales.

The movie is an action-comedy sequel with high expectations. With a budget of Rs 150 crore, including production and marketing costs, Son of Sardaar 2 needs to perform well at the box office to be considered a success. Its opening day collection is estimated to be in the range of Rs 3-7 crore, according to some reports.

Can Son Of Sardaar 2 outperform its predecessor?

The 2012 film Son of Sardaar, starring Ajay Devgn, received mixed reviews from critics but performed well at the box office. While its screenplay was criticised, the film's humour, cast performances, stylised action sequences and familiar tone were praised. Son of Sardaar had a strong opening, with around 70 per cent occupancy at multiplexes. The film earned approximately Rs 10.7 crore on its opening day. On the other hand, the sequel's opening day collection is estimated to be in the range of Rs 3-7 crore.

It's uncertain whether Son of Sardaar 2 can outperform its predecessor. The film's success will depend on positive word of mouth, audience reception, and how well it can compete with other films in theaters.

Despite this, Son of Sardaar became a commercial success, grossing Rs 161.48 crore worldwide and earning the label of a "super hit" in both India and overseas markets.

Son Of Sardaar 2 vs Saiyaara

Saiyaara, which is currently dominating the ticket windows, also has a strong hold at the box office. The film's worldwide box office collection of Rs 428 crore makes it a significant commercial success. Specifically, it stands as the second-highest-grossing Hindi film of 2025 and the second-highest-grossing Indian film of the same year. Now, it will be interesting to witness if Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur's Son of Sardaar 2 will give a competition to other theatrical releases.

Trade Analyst Weighs In On Son Of Sardaar 2

Trade analyst Atul Mohan is cautiously optimistic about Son of Sardaar 2's prospects, citing Ajay Devgn's comedic talent and the original film's brand value. While acknowledging the competition from Saiyaara and War 2, Mohan believes a well-made film can still perform well and given Ajay Devgn's involvement, there are hopes for the sequel's success.

"You can’t judge a film by just watching the trailer. Once you start a movie, you become a part of its journey and get involved. The punches might appear old, but in what situation they have been executed is to be seen in the film. As they say, you can’t judge a book by its cover. You can’t judge a film by its two-minute trailer unless you become a part of the film’s journey," he said.
