Kesari Chapter 2 wraps theatrical run at Rs 90 crore in India
Directed by Karan Singh Tyagi, Kesari Chapter 2 is wrapping its theatrical run at Rs 90.25 crore net (Rs 108.50 crore) at the Indian box office. Although the movie received positive word-of-mouth, it couldn't secure the Clean Hit verdict, but it emerged as a successful venture. The film was well received in urban centers, while the masses in the B & C centers remained not much interested.
However, one must note that Kesari Chapter 2 brings some positivity for Akshay Kumar, as his last few ventures did not tick the box office mark despite receiving favorable word-of-mouth.
Based on a historical event, Kesari Chapter 2 recorded a decent opening on its release day and maintained a good hold week after week, despite the arrival of new releases. The movie continues to draw the audience to the cinemas for more than 6 weeks, and that's the positive outcome Akshay has been looking for a long time.
For the unversed, the movie opened with Rs 9 crore and collected Rs 45 crore in its first week. It further collected Rs 27.75 crore in its second week, followed by Rs 9 crore in Week 3. It faced Raid 2 in the third week, thus, the show count went down significantly. It further collected Rs 5.45 crore in its fourth week. And the remaining Rs 3 crore came collectively from its fifth and sixth weeks, bringing its cumulative total to Rs 90 crore plus.
