KGF 2 has been consistently doing well down south and in the Hindi belt. Another tweet from Bala stated that more screens have been added in Tamil Nadu for the movie, and that a record box office collection for a second Sunday is very much on the cards.
KGF: Chapter 2 is a sequel to the 2018 release KGF, which also featured Yash in the lead. The second chapter in the franchise added new stars to its cast, including Bollywood actors like Sanjay Dutt and Raveena Tandon. Dutt plays an antagonist in the film, called Adheera, while Tandon plays the prime minister.
Despite its stupendous box office collection till now, the movie has mostly received mixed to negative reviews, as critics complained of a lack of a coherent plot. The Indian Express’ film critic Shubhra Gupta gave it 1.5 stars and wrote, “KGF Part 2 is more of the same, only bigger. But alas, not better, despite the film corralling such Bollywood stars as Sanjay Dutt and Raveena Tandon, and branching out of the country, to dip its shovel in the Middle East, with its lighter patina of brown and beige, the darker shades reserved for the Kolar gold fields, which form the burnt-earth backdrop for the doings of our hero Rocky and his faithful denizens.”
