The box office battle is heating up! Farhan Akhtar's latest historical war epic, '120 Bahadur', has seen an impressive surge in its second day of release. But can it sustain this growth?
On November 21, 2025, '120 Bahadur' made its theatrical debut, directed by Razneesh 'Razy' Ghai. While the initial response was modest, the film's positive word-of-mouth has led to a remarkable 71% growth in box office collections on Day 2, amounting to 4.10 crores. This is especially notable given the fierce competition from other big releases like 'De De Pyaar De 2' and 'Mastiii 4'.
Here's where it gets interesting: Despite the crowded market, '120 Bahadur' is showing resilience. By the end of its second day, the film's total net collection in India stood at 6.50 crores, with a gross of 7.67 crores. This means that in just 72 hours, Farhan Akhtar's film will surpass the lifetime collection of his 2017 movie, 'Daddy'. And that's not all—the film is now gearing up to challenge other notable releases, including Emraan Hashmi's 'Ground Zero' and several 2025 Bollywood hits.
Box Office Breakdown:
- Day 1: 2.40 crores
- Day 2: 4.10 crores
- Total (after Day 2): 6.50 crores net, 7.67 crores gross
As the film continues its box office run, it's set to surpass several milestones. But will it be enough to beat the competition? Stay tuned to find out!
