Ajay Devgn, Akshaye Khanna, and Tabu's Drishyam 2 is said to be off to a respectable start at the box office. When the much-anticipated film eventually debuted, it was well praised; some even referred to it as one of the year's top movies.
Now, trade analysts have dished out details of its day box office collections.
According to Taran Adarsh, Drishyam 2 has surpassed Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 day 1 earnings as per collections in national chains.
He wrote, #Drishyam2 vs #BhoolBhulaiyaa2 at *national chains*… *Day 1* biz… #Drishyam2, #PVR: 3.45 cr, #INOX: 2.75 cr, #Cinepolis: 1.40 cr, Total: ₹ 7.60 cr. #BhoolBhulaiyaa2, #PVR: 3.27 cr, #INOX: 2.61 cr, #Cinepolis: 1.35 cr, Total: ₹ 7.23 cr.”

Mentioning its collections overall, Taran Adarsh tweeted, "#Drishyam2 REJUVENATES the industry that was going through a turbulent phase after a string of failures… Takes a FLYING START on Day 1 SECOND BIGGEST START of 2022 [outright #Hindi films] ₹ 50 cr+ weekend on the cards Fri ₹ 15.38 cr. #India biz."
The movie's opening weekend was expected to bring in between Rs. 14.00 and Rs. 15.50 crore, making it Ajay Devgn's second-biggest non-holiday opening weekend after Total Dhamaal, which took in Rs. 16 crore, according to Pinkvilla.
According to current statistics, Drishyam 2 would have outperformed Devgn's blockbuster Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior's opening day numbers in 2020.
In addition, according to trade expert Taran Adarsh, Drishyam 2 will now have midnight screenings at 11.59 PM at selected multiplexes in Mumbai.
For the uninitiated, Drishyam is the follow-up to the popular 2015 film Drishyam. Both Hindi-language Drishyam films, which debuted in 2013 and 2021, star Mohanlal. In the first movie, Tabu plays a senior police officer whose son mysteriously vanishes after getting into a sketchy situation.

In Drishyam 2, Tabu's character is no longer a police officer and instead is working to defeat Ajay Devgn's character, the movie's protagonist. Given that the movie is a suspense thriller, it makes sense that Tabu is reluctant to give away any secrets.
