As per Sacnilk, the film earned just Rs 9 crore on Friday after a much better Day 1. On Thursday, the actioner minted Rs 24 crore across all languages with a major contribution coming from its original Tamil version. The total collections after two days of release currently stand at Rs 33 crore. However, it is expected to perform better on the weekend and cross Rs 60 crore after its first weekend.
