Indian 2 Box Office Collections: A Disappointing Weekend for Kamal Haasan’s Film. The highly anticipated sequel to the 1996 blockbuster “Indian,” titled “Indian 2,” recently hit theatres. However, its box office performance has been far from impressive. Let’s delve into the numbers and trends.
Lacklustre Opening Weekend
“Indian 2” had a lacklustre opening weekend at the Indian box office, earning approximately Rs. 72 crore. Despite Friday being a crucial day for any film’s performance, the collections were ordinary. Unfortunately, this trend continued over the weekend, with daily earnings declining even on Sunday. The film’s reception has been less than favorable.
Tamil Nadu Collections
In Tamil Nadu, where Kamal Haasan enjoys immense popularity, “Indian 2” grossed an underwhelming Rs. 36 crore during the weekend. This figure is almost half of what another recent release, “Vikram,” achieved. While the film managed to hold steady on Saturday, it faced a 15% drop in collections on Sunday. Notably, pre-sales on Saturday were higher than the opening day, but subsequent sales during the day were disappointingly low. As pre-sales wore off on Sunday, collections further decreased.
Outside Tamil Nadu: Unfortunately, the situation was even worse outside Tamil Nadu. “Indian 2” crashed on Saturday itself and continued to decline on Sunday. As a result, the film’s prospects outside its home state are grim. It is expected to exit theaters by the weekdays.
Plot: Senapathy, an ex-freedom fighter turned vigilante who fights against corruption. Senapathy returns to the country to aid a young man who has been exposing corrupt politicians in the country through videos on the internet.

With further drops anticipated during the week, “Indian 2” may conclude its box office run with less than Rs. 100 crore. Despite Kamal Haasan’s star power, the film struggled to resonate with audiences, leading to its lackluster performance. As the weekdays approach, “Indian 2” faces an uphill battle to stay afloat in theaters.
