As per the latest update, Mark Antony witnessed healthy growth during the second weekend; as a result, it ended up earning 61 crores net at the Indian box office in just 10 days. This is an impressive number as it carries a tight budget of 27 crores (not officially confirmed). So, by the second weekend, the film has already earned double its cost.
