Merry Christmas Box Office Collection Day 2

The second-day box office collection for the movie featuring Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi has been released, and unfortunately, it has fallen short of expectations. Despite the weekend being expected to bring in a surge in box office numbers, the film was only able to collect 0.24 crores on its second day. The film had an unimpressive start, with a collection of 2.55 crores on its opening day across India, as per industry tracker Sacnilk. The destiny of the movie will depend on its word of mouth, and the box office numbers on Sunday will give a much clearer picture of whether the film will have a decent success or if it will fall flat in the coming week.
