Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone’s Fighter had a thunderous roar on the second day of release at the box office. Helmed by Siddharth Anand, the action-drama collected almost 41.20 crore on January 26, a National Holiday. However, the advance booking did not ensure such a massive number.
But the mood of the nation for this war film was witnessed clearly with a massive jump from the opening day. The film opened at 24.60 crore on day one and jumped by almost 67% on day 2, which was a National Holiday.
The word of mouth for the film, which was brilliant, also pushed the numbers on the second day. The opening day for Fighter was lukewarm, but if taken into consideration the fact that it was a working day, the gaze for the film’s earnings definitely changed.
