Amid this, the film has made a recovery of over 20%. Keep reading for a detailed collection report!
How much did Kaantha earn at the Indian box office in 2 days?
The Kollywood period thriller drama received mixed reviews from critics, and even among the audience, the picture is somewhat similar. Due to this, it was unable to reach its full potential. In the Tamil version, the film had an average occupancy of 27% throughout the day. In Telugu, the occupancy was just 18%. This resulted in an estimated collection of 4.85 crores, showing a jump of just 11.49% from day 1’s 4.35 crores.
Overall, Kaantha has earned an estimated 9.2 crore net at the Indian box office, as per Sacnilk. Adjusting for GST, the gross domestic collection stands at 10.85 crores. From here, the film is expected to close its 3-day opening weekend slightly below 15 crore net.
