The Hindi lifetime collection of Baahubali 2 stood at a staggering £50.1 million.
Shah Rukh Khan’s action thriller film Pathaan is the highest-grossing Hindi film of all time.
Helmed by Anil Sharma, Gadar 2 is a sequel to the hit film which was released in theatres in 2001. In the film, Sunny Deol played the role of Tara, a truck driver, while Ameesha Patel played Sakina in the film that was set during the partition of India in 1947.
Gadar 2 follows Tara Singh as he ventures across the border in a daring attempt to rescue his son, portrayed by Utkarsh Sharma, who has been captured in Pakistan.
Sunny has still not announced his next project.
