Directed by Shankar, the Indian sequel opened to mostly negative reviews from critics, and even word-of-mouth among the ticket-buying audience is not in favor. The effect of the same was clearly seen as the film failed to show bigger jumps in occupancy during evening and night shows. All thanks to the franchise value, the biggie got a respectable start for itself on the board.
As per early trends flowing in, Indian 2 raked in an estimated collection of 27 crores net (inclusive of all languages) on its day 1 at the Indian box office. Out of this, over 16 crores are coming in from the Tamil version. The Hindi version took a dismal start and earned just above 1 crore. The biggest surprise has been the Telugu version, which contributed well over 7 crores.
