War 2 Box Office Collection Day 11: The spy action thriller starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR witnessed 5.60 percent uptick in earnings on second Sunday, although the domestic revenue failed to hit two-digit numbers since last Monday. Clashing with Rajinikanth's Coolie, the most-awaited Bollywood film of the year hit the silver screen on the occasion of Independence Day, August 14.
Ayan Mukerji directorial film raked an estimated ₹221.1 crore net in India during its 11-day run in theatres, according to industry tracker Sacnilk. On Day 11, the big budget movie produced by Aditya Chopra under the banner Yash Raj Film did a business of ₹6.6 crore net. A day before, it recorded 56.25 percent growth in earnings, which brings second weekend collection total to ₹12.85 crore net.
Although the movie features two of the biggest superstars from North and South, Jr NTR's popularity among Telugu audience failed to attract audience as Hindi screenings are dominating its revenue flow.
At the worldwide box office, War 2 minted ₹329.15 crore gross in 10 days by amassing ₹73 crore from the overseas market.
