🎬 War 2 First Day Box Office: Big Numbers, Mixed Signals
Mumbai, August 15, 2025 — The much-hyped sequel War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR, and Kiara Advani, opened with a bang — but not without concerns. Despite massive expectations, the film earned ₹52.5 crore on its first day across India.
Collection Breakdown
| Language | Day 1 Collection |
|---|---|
| Hindi | ₹29 crore |
| Telugu | ₹23.25 crore |
| Tamil | ₹25 lakh |
| Total | ₹52.5 crore |
While the numbers sound impressive, trade analysts are calling it a “disappointing start” for a film of this scale.
📉 Compared to Prequel & Rivals
- War (2019) opened at ₹53 crore (₹51 crore Hindi alone)
- Pathaan (2023) started at ₹57 crore
- Coolie, starring Rajinikanth, clashed with War 2 and earned ₹65 crore on Day 1
🎭 Audience Reaction & Occupancy
- Mixed reviews and weak word-of-mouth impacted footfalls
- Occupancy in Hindi belts: ~29%
- Telugu shows in Hyderabad: ~77% — Jr NTR’s fanbase showed up strong
🎥 Franchise Pressure
As part of YRF’s Spy Universe, War 2 was expected to outperform its predecessor. But with lukewarm reception and a tough box office clash, the film faces an uphill battle to sustain momentum.
