2.0 Box Office Collections Day 1 Early Trends (All India): Superstar Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar starrer 2.0 finally arrived in theatres yesterday and has literally set the screens on fire. As expected, due to Thalaiva’s presence the movie is terrific in the south, and despite a comparatively slow start, the fever has now taken over the northern belt as well. Directed by Shankar, 2.0 is high on top-notch VFX.
Rajini fans flocked the theatres right from the first-day first show, which helped the movie to record a solid morning occupancy, which increased tremendously in the evening and night shows, due to the positive word-of-mouth.
