Kamal Haasan’s ‘Indian 2’ hit screens on July 12 amid much fanfare and opened to a thunderous response at the Tamil Nadu box office. It grossed nearly Rs 13 crore on the first day to emerge as the best opener of the year. The film, however, received mixed reviews with critics praising the performances but ripping apart the screenplay.
So, did this average word-of-mouth affect the much-hyped sequel on its first Saturday (July 13)?
Did Kamal Haasan’s ‘Indian 2’ Soar At The Box Office On Second Day?
Indian 2 witnessed limited growth at the Tamil Nadu box office on July 13. According to Ramesh Bala, a trade analyst and tracker, the day 2 collection is expected to be around Rs 14 crore.
“The word of mouth is mixed. As such, I have a conservative figure in mind for the second day. The figure will be in the same range as that of the first day. There might be some growth. As such, I expect the figure to be near about Rs 14 crore. The shows are going housefull in some cities. The mixed word of mouth is not affecting the film right now in Tamil Nadu. However, we will get a better idea on Monday,” he told The Daily Guardian
Indian 2 also opened to a fair response in the Telugu states. It, however, failed to find takers in Hindi.
