New Delhi: Akshay Kumar‘s cop-drama ‘Sooryavanshi‘ has been the magic pill that revived Indian theatres after they were shut owing to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Rohit Shetty directorial, unsurprisingly, did extremely well on Day 1 in terms of Box Office collections.
According to noted film critic Taran Adarsh, the Day 1 collection of Sooryavanshi has earned over Rs 26.29 crore. On Sunday (November 7), the film critic tweeted a fresh report stating that on Day 2 of Sooryavanshi’s release, it earned a whopping Rs 23.85 cr, making the total at the time of his tweet as Rs 50.14 cr.
Adarsh tweeted, “#Sooryavanshi crosses ₹ 50 cr… SUPER-STRONG HOLD on Day 2… Slight dip in night shows vis-à-vis Day 1… Expect a BIGGG SCORE on Day 3, should comfortably cross ₹ 75 cr, may even touch ₹ 80 cr [+/-], PHENOMENAL… Fri 26.29 cr, Sat 23.85 cr. Total: ₹ 50.14 cr. #India biz.”
