Akshay Kumar has finally tasted success with his March 2025 release, Kesari Chapter 2. The historical courtroom drama is facing stiff competition but still adding moolah, although on the lower end. It showcased good growth on Saturday, but the 100 crore club looks out of reach now. Scroll below for day 37 box office updates!
How much has Kesari Chapter 2 earned at the box office?
Kesari Chapter 2 slowed down starting May 1 due to the arrival of Raid 2. Ajay Devgn starrer stole its thunder, and the journey has been difficult since.
