Kesari 2 vs Jaat Box Office Comparison 5 Days: Akshay Kumar’s courtroom drama lags behind Sunny Deol’s mass actioner
Akshay Kumar's Kesari Chapter 2 remained behind Sunny Deol's mass action drama Jaat in their 5-day box office comparison.
Akshay Kumar's Kesari Chapter 2 and Sunny Deol's Jaat are the latest two releases from the Hindi film industry. The courtroom drama revolving around the Jallianwala Bagh massacre is witnessing a strong trend; however, the movie remained significantly behind the Sunny Deol-starrer mass action drama in the first 5-day box office comparison.
Directed by Karan Singh Tyagi, Kesari Chapter 2 opened with Rs 7.50 crore on its debut day. The movie met with positive reception; however, word-of-mouth has yet to translate into footfalls. Though the movie has recorded a strong run, it could have been much better. As per estimates, the film collected Rs 5 crore on Tuesday, taking the total cume to Rs 38.50 crore net in India.
While Kesari Chapter 2 took advantage of subsidized ticket rates on Tuesday, the Sunny Deol movie enjoyed a Holiday on its 5th day, on the occasion of Ambedkar Jayanti. Due to which, the box office collections of Jaat on its Day 5 are much higher than those of the Akshay Kumar movie.
For the record, Jaat opened with Rs 9 crore and stormed Rs 46.25 crore net in the first 5 days of its theatrical run, with Rs 7.25 crore coming on its 1st Monday (Day 5).
Day-wise box office comparison between Kesari Chapter 2 and Jaat is as follows:

| Day 1 | Rs 7.50 crore | Rs 9 crore |
| Day 2 | Rs 9.50 crore | Rs 6.75 crore |
