Sunny Deol is back in action and this time, he’s teaming up with the makers of Pushpa 2, Mythri Movie Makers, for a high-octane action thriller titled Jaat. Directed by Gopichand Malineni, who is making his Hindi film debut, Jaat is already creating a strong buzz and is expected to give Sunny Deol one of the biggest openings of his career.
Sunny Deol’s South Indian Connection
Jaat is not just another Bollywood film – it marks Sunny Deol’s entry into the Southern market in a major way. With a pan-India appeal and a powerful lineup of stars, the film is expected to attract audiences from across the country. Apart from Sunny Deol, the film also stars Regina Cassandra, Randeep Hooda, Ayesha Khan, Saiyami Kher, Zarina Wahab, Dayanand Shetty, Ajay Ghosh, Vineet Kumar Singh, and Jagapathi Babu in key roles.
Slated for a grand release in cinemas worldwide on April 10, 2025, Jaat has all the elements of a mass entertainer – action, drama, and star power.
Gadar 2: Sunny Deol’s Biggest Opener Ever
When we talk about Sunny Deol’s box office records, Gadar 2 stands tall as his highest-grossing opening day film. It made a massive ₹40.10 crores on Day 1 and remains untouched at the top. Surprisingly, none of his other films have crossed even the ₹10 crore mark on opening day.
Here’s a quick look at Sunny Deol’s top opening day collections:
- Gadar 2 – ₹40.10 crores
- Yamla Pagla Deewana – ₹7.75 crores
- Ghayal Once Again – ₹7.20 crores
- Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 – ₹7.10 crores
- Singh Saab The Great – ₹5.50 crores
- Chup – ₹3.06 crores
Jaat Box Office Prediction – Day 1
Looking at the current buzz and advance trends, Jaat is projected to earn somewhere between ₹10-13 crores on its opening day. If that happens, it will easily become Sunny Deol’s second biggest opener, right behind Gadar 2.
If Jaat manages to open at ₹13 crores, it would beat Yamla Pagla Deewana’s opening by nearly 68%, which is a massive jump for Sunny. This strong start could also help build momentum for the film in the coming days, especially if the audience gives it a thumbs-up.
What Makes Jaat Special?
There are a few reasons why Jaat is expected to perform well:
- Powerful Direction: Gopichand Malineni is known for delivering action-packed hits in the South. His entry into Bollywood is highly anticipated.
- Mass Appeal: The film is designed to appeal to fans across India, especially action lovers.
- Star Cast: A strong ensemble cast, led by Sunny Deol, adds to the hype.
- Post-Gadar 2 Buzz: Sunny Deol’s comeback with Gadar 2 reignited his popularity, and Jaat is riding that wave.
Final Thoughts
Sunny Deol is all set to dominate the box office again with Jaat. While it may not beat Gadar 2, it’s already looking like a sure-shot hit when it comes to opening day numbers. Fans are excited, the trade is hopeful, and the stage is set for another blockbuster from the action legend.
