The downward graph is a point of concern for Indian 2. Despite mixed reviews, Kamal Haasan starrer began on a promising note at the box office. However, the unfavorable word-of-mouth is finally affecting the footfalls, along with the undeniable competition from Kalki 2898 AD. Scroll below for worldwide updates on day 7.
Indian 2 is a sequel to Indian (1996). Kamal Haasan reprises his role as Senapathy, a vigilante who fights corruption. The action film was criticized for its outdated screenplay and run time. It is mounted on a humungous budget of 250 crores, which will be a tough nut to crack given the current pace at the ticket windows.

This is indeed a disappointing collection for a film starring a superstar like Kamal Haasan, who rose fresh from the success of Kalki 2898 AD. But content is clearly the king in today’s time, and the numbers are proving it yet again!
In India, there are ample options for viewers, and that too with good reviews. Prabhas starrer Kalki 2898 AD, also starring Kamal Haasan, remains the number 1 choice of the audience. Sarfira, on the other hand, is also struggling despite good reviews. The latest addition is Bad Newz, which was released today to positive word-of-mouth and is expected to steal a considerable amount of footfall. All in all, things seem to be getting tougher by the day for Shankar’s film.
