'War 2' Plummets at Box Office Despite Strong Start
18 Aug
Summary
- 'War 2' had a strong Friday opening but has since declined
- Film likely to enter single-digit collections soon
- Best-case scenario is to cross ₹150 crore mark by end of extended Week One
As of 2025-08-18T12:21:46+00:00, the Bollywood action film 'War 2' has faced a disappointing run at the box office. The film, starring Hrithik Roshan and NTR, had a strong start on its opening Friday, earning ₹46 crore. However, the momentum could not be sustained, and the collections have been on a downward spiral since then.
On Saturday, the film's collections dropped to ₹27 crore, and the fears of a steep decline were realized on Sunday, when the collections were just ₹28 crore, a negligible growth from the previous day. So far, 'War 2' has managed to collect ₹130 crore at the box office, but the film is now expected to enter single-digit collections soon.
The best-case scenario for the film is to somehow cross the ₹150 crore mark by the end of its extended first week. However, the weekday collections are not expected to contribute more than ₹25-30 crore, making it a challenging task for the film to reach that milestone. The article notes that the smaller films have seen some growth over the weekend, but 'War 2' has failed to maintain the momentum it had on its opening day.
