‘Kesari 2’ box office collection day 7: The Akshay Kumar starrer inches towards Rs 50 crore as it completes a week | Hindi Movie News – The Times of India

Akshay Kumar starrer ‘Kesari 2’ where he plays C. Sankaran Nair, a brave Indian lawyer who took on the British Empire in court, has been getting some rave reviews. Due to word of mouth, the film has managed to stay steady and did a decent number on Monday as well. However, it is yet to cross Rs 50 crore at the box office even after its 7-day run.

On Wednesday and Thursday, the film has dropped further and it may have to do with the terrorists attacks in Kashmir as due to that, the people in the country are not in the frame of mind to go and enjoy a movie in theatres.

On day 1, the film made Rs 7.75 crore and there was good word of mouth, hence some growth was expected over the weekend. On Saturday, day 2, the movie made around Rs 9.75 crore which was a growth of around 25 percent, according to Sacnilk. There was further jump on Sunday and the film made around Rs 12.25 crore.
