Ajay Devgn's Raid 2 continues its strong box office run, surpassing ₹70 crore in earnings within just four days of release, reports UNB.
According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the crime thriller pulled in ₹21.50 crore on Day 4 alone, indicating a significant uptick in ticket sales.
Directed by Raj Kumar Gupta, the film registered a 39.80% average occupancy for Hindi screenings on May 4. Morning shows had a turnout of 19.38%, which climbed steadily to 45.34% in the afternoon, peaked at 55.07% in the evening, and settled at 39.42% by night.
Since its release on May 1, Raid 2 has earned a total of ₹70.75 crore at the domestic box office.
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh took to X (formerly Twitter) to highlight the film’s performance. He noted that Raid 2 crossed the ₹50 crore mark by Day 3 and praised the film’s Saturday earnings, which nearly matched its opening day numbers from Thursday — a day that benefited from a partial holiday. He called the performance “remarkable” and said the film is on track for one of the best extended opening weekends since the pandemic.
Adarsh reported that the film saw a 42.15% growth from Friday to Saturday, anticipating a strong showing on Sunday as well. He listed the film’s earnings over the first three days: ₹19.71 crore on Thursday, ₹13.05 crore on Friday, and ₹18.55 crore on Saturday, totaling ₹51.31 crore before Sunday.
Raid 2 stars Ajay Devgn alongside Vaani Kapoor, Riteish Deshmukh, Rajat Kapoor, Saurabh Shukla, Supriya Pathak, and Amit Sial. The film is a follow-up to the 2018 hit Raid, where Ileana D'Cruz played Ajay's wife. In the sequel, Vaani Kapoor takes over that role.
The film is currently up against Akshay Kumar’s Kesari: Chapter 2 and Nani’s HIT: The Third Case in cinemas.
