Karthikeya 2 Box Office Report
"The South dubbed film Karthikeya 2 is holding steady on low collections and beating Raksha Bandhan and Laal Singh Chaddha in Maharashtra and Gujarat and various other centres. This film will get the benefit of Janmashtami and do a first week of 4-4.50 crore nett. Maybe more as the film could really jump due to the holiday factor. On Independence Day it looked like the film could really break out into something bigger as the occupancy at many places was very good but these occupancy rates came down post the holiday," Box Office India reported.

While the film had 157 shows in Hindi on Saturday, on Sunday that number rose to 245. By Monday, the shows had increased to 274 in Hindi.
