#BoxOfficeCollection: 'OMG 2' Day 4 collections surpass opening day earnings
What's the story
After a string of consecutive box office flops, Akshay Kumar is reclaiming his throne with the remarkable run of OMG 2, which hit theaters last Friday.
Despite facing stiff competition from Gadar 2, the Amit Rai-helmed film is forging its path to success—largely attributed to positive word-of-mouth.
The film has now entered Rs. 50cr club in four days.
Here's a breakdown of its collections.
Context
Why does this story matter?
The month of August witnessed a major clash between two blockbuster sequels: Gadar 2 and OMG 2.
While Gadar 2 has already crossed Rs. 150cr (domestic) and is eyeing the Rs. 200cr mark, the Kumar-led film finds itself trailing behind by a substantial margin.
Clearly, the films fall under distinct genres but are united by a common theme—a narrative centered around the father-son relationship.

Benefitting from favorable word-of-mouth and a gripping satirical courtroom drama narrative, OMG 2 successfully managed to draw audiences to theaters on its first non-holiday Monday.

Its total earnings (domestic) currently stand at Rs. 55.17 crore.
