Thug Life Box Office Collection Day 2: Kamal Haasan's action-thriller slows down amid controversy, earns Rs...
The audience's expectations for the film Thug Life, helmed by Mani Ratnam and starring Kamal Haasan and STR, following its release, have had a direct impact on the film's box office collection. Let's see how much the film has earned on the second day. Thug Life Struggles To Maintain Its Momentum
Following a disappointing opening day revenue of Rs 15.50 crore , according to early estimates, the film collected just around Rs 7.50 crore on its second day, bringing the total two-day collection to around Rs 23 crore. The makers are concerned about film's Day 2 decline of more than 50%, especially given its high-profile cast, acclaimed director, and considerable pre-release buzz. With mixed to unfavorable reviews and a lack of positive word-of-mouth, fan interest has certainly dipped.
The dramatic drop in collections on Friday indicates a difficult weekend ahead unless the film experiences a surprising increase in footfalls on Saturday and Sunday, especially after the release of the multi-starrer film Housefull 5 featuring a stellar star cast from Bollywood. Is Thug Life Going To Be Kamal Haasan's Lowest-Grossing Of All Time
After seeing two two-day collections, it can be said that this could be Kamal Haasan's lowest-grossing film of all time. As for now, his lowest is the 1992 comedy-romance film Singaravelan , helmed by R. Udayakumar, which earned Rs 32 crore in its lifetime run. His previous film, Indian 2 , received huge criticism for its poor storyline and presentation, but it managed to hold its tight run at the box office and made Rs 151 crore worldwide. But, in case of Thug Life, it seems difficult, especially after the Karnataka controversy that had shown a strong impact on the film as well. More About Thug Life
