India Today
Tiger Shroff-starrer Heropanti 2 released in the theaters on April 29. According to reports, the film clocked in Rs 7.50 crore on its opening day.
Both Tiger Shroff and Kriti Sanon made their big Bollywood debut with Heropanti in 2014. The film turned out to be a huge box office success. 8 years later, the sequel of the film, Heropanti 2 released on April 29. While Tara Sutaria is the female lead, Nawazuddin Siddiqui plays notorious villain, Laila. On its opening day, the film reportedly earned a total of Rs 7.50 crore.
Heropanti 2 opened to mixed reviews. Written by Rajat Arora and directed by Ahmed Khan, the film also features Tara Sutaria and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, alongside Tiger Shroff. Just like its prequels, Heropanti 2 was expected to open to big numbers. However, Box Office India's reports suggest, "The multiplex movement was very slow for Heropanti 2 on the day and whatever the film is doing here is generally the advance done pre-release and it is basically relying on holds in mass belts in order to keep the single screens for the Eid crowd. At the end of the day an action film like this needed a better start as they are frontloaded." Meanwhile, the Tiger Shroff film clocked an occupancy of 25 percent on the opening day.
Heropanti 2 has been directed by Ahmed Khan. The film features Tiger Shroff and Tara Sutaria. For the unaware, Tiger had made his Bollywood debut with Heropanti opposite Kriti Sanon. Next, the actor will be reuniting with Kriti for Vikas Bahl's Ganapath.
