Overview
- War 2 collected ₹52.5 crore net on opening day, driven by Hindi (₹29 crore) and Telugu (₹23.25 crore) versions.
- Independence Day holiday uplift pushed second-day earnings to about ₹55–56.5 crore, taking the two-day total to roughly ₹107–108 crore.
- Early Sunday reports estimate a third-day collection near ₹33 crore, highlighting volatility in its weekend hold.
- Mixed-to-negative trade reviews and a reported ₹300–400 crore production budget intensify pressure on its weekend and overseas returns.
- In its box-office clash with Rajinikanth’s Coolie, War 2 briefly led on Day 2 but must sustain momentum to justify its high-stakes franchise ambitions.
