MUMBAI: In the 80s, 90s and early 2000s, Sunny Deol was a big star. He starred in many hit films and impressed one and all with his performances. However, in the past few years, Sunny has not been a part of a movie that would have left a mark at the box office. But now, everyone is expecting his grand comeback with Gadar 2.

Gadar 2 is slated to release on 11th August 2023. So, before the movie hits the big screens, here’s a look at the box office collection of Deol’s last five films...

R Balki’s Chup: Revenge of The Artist starring Sunny Deol, Dulquer Salmaan, and Pooja Bhatt received critical acclaim. But, it was a box office failure. The movie, which was made on a budget of Rs. 10 crore, just collected Rs. 9.75 crore.
