Raid 2 Box Office Collection Day 16: Ajay Devgn, Ritesh Deshmukh Starrer Stays Steady, Leaves HIT 3 And Kesari Chapter 2 Far Behind

Ajay Devgn’s Raid 2 is still pulling in good numbers as it enters its third week at the box office. The film collected an estimated Rs 3 crore on Day 16 (third Friday), showing no dip from the previous day. With no major Bollywood releases in theatres, the film has maintained a solid hold.

The action thriller has earned Rs 139.35 crore so far. Devgn’s film is now eyeing the Rs 150 crore club. But the arrival of Tom Cruise’s Mission Impossible The Final Reckoning might affect its pace in the coming days.

Directed by Rajkumar Gupta, Raid 2 features Devgn alongside Riteish Deshmukh and Vaani Kapoor. While critics shared mixed reviews, audiences have shown strong support. Viewers have praised its thrilling plot and the chemistry between the lead actors. The buzz continues to help the film attract footfall even in its third week. It is much ahead of its south competitor HIT 3 and holdover release Kesari Chapter 2

Meanwhile, Nani’s Telugu thriller HIT 3, which released on the same day, is losing steam. It collected just Rs 0.51 crore on Day 16. Its total now stands at Rs 76.86 crore. The film saw a strong opening but couldn’t hold momentum after the first week. Critics pointed out issues in the screenplay and a lack of emotional depth. Audience footfalls dropped sharply during weekdays. The film still stands as the top grosser in the HIT franchise, but is fading fast.

Suriya’s Retro also entered the theatres around the same time and added pressure to HIT 3’s performance. The mix of competition and lukewarm reviews has pushed it closer to the end of its run.

Kesari Chapter 2, starring Akshay Kumar, R Madhavan and Ananya Panday, is nearing the end of its theatrical journey. The courtroom drama was released on April 18 and has now entered its fifth weekend. On Day 29, it earned just Rs 0.40 crore, taking its total collection to Rs 87.6 crore net.

Directed by Karan Singh Tyagi, Kesari Chapter 2 opened strong but couldn’t sustain over time. Backed by Dharma Productions, Cape of Good Films and Leo Media Collective, the film failed to maintain momentum beyond the second week.

Now, new challengers are set to enter the box office race. Tom Cruise’s high-octane Mission Impossible is already making waves. Bollywood’s upcoming drama Bhool Chuk Maaf is also ready to hit screens soon.

The next week will be crucial for Raid 2. If it holds its ground against Hollywood and fresh Bollywood releases, it might cross the Rs 150 crore milestone. For now, Ajay Devgn’s gritty thriller continues to lead the box office with confidence.
