Mumbai, Maharashtra, India
Tiger Shroff's film Baaghi 2 may have been panned by the critics but the audience seems to love the action-thriller. The film, which released last Friday, had a good start at the Box Office. The film opened at Rs 25. 10 crores at the ticket windows and has managed to stay above the Rs 20 crore mark since then.
The earnings have crossed Ajay Devgn's starrer Raid's first-weekend collection and now Ahmed Khan directed Baaghi 2 has had the second highest opening weekend collection of the year so far. The highest opening collection so far is Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Padmaavat and now at the second spot is Baaghi 2.
Trade Analyst Taran Adarsh shared on Twitter the film's collection. "#Baaghi2 is a RECORD-SMASHER... East, West, North, South - the film is having a BLOCKBUSTER RUN everywhere... Opening weekend numbers are simply PHENOMENAL... Fri 25.10 cr, Sat 20.40 cr, Sun 27.60 cr. Total: ₹ 73.10 cr. India biz.(sic)"

The film features Tiger Shroff and Disha Patani in the lead. Manoj Bajpayee, Randeep Hooda, Deepak Dobriyal and Prateik Babbar play supporting roles.
The film has had a good start owing to the long weekend but Trade pundits feel the word of mouth publicity will also help the film gain more in the coming days.
