Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR starrer action film WAR 2 opened to mixed reviews, with many saying it was more action than story, with its pan-Indian cast failing against shoddy dialogues and screenplay.

How much did WAR 2 earn on Day 2?
Due to lacklustre reviews, WAR 2 second-day domestic box office collection for all languages stood at muted ₹23.38 crore as of 3 pm on Friday, according to early estimates by Sacnilk.
This was low compared to the first-day domestic collection of WAR 2 at ₹52.5 crore. The total by afternoon stood at just around ₹75 crore. Estimates put WAR 2 crossing ₹90 crore by the end of the second day.
