Fighter box office day 2
As per the early estimates, Fighter registered a spike from its opening day collection of ₹22.5 crore and amassed ₹36.48 crore on Friday, bringing up its total domestic collection in 2 days to ₹58.98 crore. So it is safe to say that Hrithik Roshan's film has crossed the ₹50 crore mark at the Indian box office.
The spike can be attributed to both a national holiday on Friday by account of the 70th Republic Day and the film's patriotic fervour. Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to X (formerly Twitter) on Friday and wrote, “After an ordinary/average start in morning and noon shows, #Fighter picked up pace post 5 pm onwards on Day 1 [working day before the big holiday]. Agree, the biggie should've targeted a higher number on its opening day, but the good news is that the audience feedback is excellent and that should translate into big numbers today [Day 2; #RepublicDay holiday].”
