The Akshay Kumar, Yami Gautam, and Pankaj Tripathi film, OMG 2, has found appreciation from the audience as the film has shown a big jump in collections on Saturday. According to early estimates, OMG 2 has collected in the range of Rs. 14.25 to 15.25 crores, taking the two-day total collection to Rs. 25 crores. The platform is set for the film to explode on Sunday and hit an opening weekend of Rs. 40 crores.
While the business on opening day was driven by multiplexes, the second-day trend has been encouraging as even the non-national chains came on board in a big way for OMG 2. In fact, the film even faced capacity issues in a lot of places, and there will be a big spillover of audiences for the film over the coming week. It's headed to become a clean hit and also a comeback for Akshay Kumar after 5 back-to-back flops.
It's also a respite for the Hindi Film Industry to see another non-event film succeed after Satyaprem Ki Katha and Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. The film is doing well despite an Adult Only Certificate and clash with Gadar 2, and with positive talk, it may be headed to enter the Rs. 100 crore club at the domestic box office.
OMG 2 is a sequel to Oh My God (2012) and it is reaping results similar to the original film, which has over the years become a cult.
