And it is going to be clash of the titans at the box office this Friday. Heavy hitter Sunny Deol is back with Gadar 2 opposite Akshay Kumar's hit franchise – OMG 2. The two films are going to engage head-on at the box office race. Trade experts and commercial pundits had expected a tough fight between the two sequels, but turns out, Sunny Deol's Gadar 2 has leaped much ahead in the race.
Directed by Anil Sharma, starring Ameesha Patel; Gadar 2 has sold almost 3 lakh tickets at the box office in advance bookings. The number is mammoth in comparison to Akshay Kumar's OMG 2 which has only managed to sell close to 75,000 tickets in advance bookings.
