Moreover, the film witnessed a massive jump in collections on Day 2, thanks to positive word of mouth and the goodwill earned by its blockbuster predecessor.

Gatta Kusthi 2 Sees Massive Jump on Day 2
On Day 2 of its release, the Tamil sports drama collected 4.7 crore net in India across 2,177 shows. In comparison, the film had earned 2.7 crore on its opening day. As a result, Day 2 registered an impressive 75.9% jump in collections. Consequently, the film’s total India net collection now stands at 7.45 crore, while its India gross collection has reached 8.57 crore after two days.
Meanwhile, Gatta Kusthi 2 also performed decently overseas, collecting 1 crore gross on Day 2. This takes its total worldwide gross collection to 10.42 crore.
According to Sacnilk, Tamil Nadu continues to be the film’s strongest market, contributing 4.75 crore gross over the first two days. Meanwhile, Karnataka has contributed 0.60 crore, followed by Kerala with 0.31 crore, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana with 0.05 crore, and the rest of India with ₹0.06 crore. Additionally, the film’s overall occupancy increased significantly from 26% on Day 1 to 38% on Day 2, reflecting the growing audience interest.
