Indian 2 box office collection day 6: Kamal Haasan’s film crawls towards Rs 70 crore mark after disastrous first week

Indian 2 will end its first week with a little more than Rs 70 cr, and from there on. In the Hindi belt, the game will pretty much be over for Indian 2 as the big release of the week, Bad Newz, will take over. The comedy drama is headlined by Vicky Kaushal, Triptii Dimri and Amy Virk.

At this rate, Indian 2 won’t even cross the Rs 100 cr mark at the box office. In comparison to Indian 2, Kamal Haasan’s last Tamil film, Vikram (2022), had a solid run at the box office with a bigger opening of Rs 32 cr, which was seven crores higher than his latest. Not only was the Lokesh Kanagaraj directorial well received, it also was a smashing hit, clocking Rs 143 cr all India nett in seven days. That’s a figure that Indian 2 will likely not cross globally in its lifetime.

Indian 2’s Wednesday collections were almost half of another film which has Kamal Haasan in a special appearance– Kalki 2898 AD. The Prabhas-led sci-fi epic netted Rs 6.5 cr, while the other Hindi release of last week, Akshay Kumar’s Sarfira, minted Rs 2 cr.

Indian 2 also stars Siddharth, SJ Suryah and Rakul Preet Singh among others. A third instalment of the film is expected to release next year.
