Karthi’s much‑anticipated sequel, Sardar 2, marked its sixth day in theatres with a noticeable dip in daily earnings but still managed to push its worldwide gross past the ₹20‑crore milestone. According to the latest box‑office report, the film collected ₹0.54 crore in India on day six, bringing its net domestic tally to ₹13.64 crore. When combined with overseas receipts, the total worldwide gross now stands at ₹20.47 crore. The drop of 64 percent in daily collections reflects the typical post‑opening slowdown that many Indian releases experience after the initial hype.
Nevertheless, the figures suggest that Sardar 2 continues to draw audiences beyond the opening weekend, sustaining a respectable run in multiplexes and single‑screen venues across the country. Analysts note that the film’s steady performance can be attributed to Karthi’s strong fan base, solid word‑of‑mouth, and the momentum built by its predecessor. Sardar 2 opened to a robust opening day, registering a net of roughly ₹5 crore in India. The film’s earnings plateaued in the subsequent days, with day two and day three showing modest growth before the current dip.
While the day‑by‑day numbers have not been disclosed beyond the sixth day, the cumulative net of ₹13.64 crore places the film among the higher‑earning Tamil releases of the year, though it still trails the top‑grossing titles that have crossed the ₹50‑crore mark domestically. The overseas market contributed a notable share to the total gross, helping the film breach the ₹20‑crore threshold. Markets such as the United Arab Emirates, United States, and Malaysia have shown consistent interest in Tamil-language productions, and Sardar 2 appears to be benefitting from that trend.
The exact breakdown of overseas earnings has not been detailed, but the worldwide figure indicates a healthy international response. Industry observers point out that the film’s performance will likely be influenced by upcoming releases and the festive calendar. With several high‑profile movies slated for release in the coming weeks, Sardar 2 may see further fluctuations in its box‑office trajectory. However, its ability to maintain a net above ₹13 crore after a week suggests a solid core audience.
The production team, led by director P. S. Mithran, has yet to comment publicly on the box‑office numbers. Meanwhile, marketing efforts continue to focus on social media engagement and regional promotions, aiming to sustain interest as the film moves into its second week. Overall, Sardar 2’s day‑six figures paint a picture of a film that, while experiencing a typical post‑opening decline, remains financially viable and continues to attract viewers both domestically and abroad.
Crossing the ₹20‑crore worldwide mark is a noteworthy achievement for a regional sequel and underscores Karthi’s drawing power in the current market.
