Ikkis Box Office Collection Day 2: Dharmendra-Agastya Nanda Starrer Sees 50% Drop, Lags Behind Akshay Kumar-Veer Pahariya’s Sky Force By Huge Margin

Ikkis Box Office Collection Day 2: The year 2026 opened with filmmaker Sriram Raghavan stepping into new territory. Known for his thrillers, the director tried his hand at the war genre with Ikkis. It is a biographical drama based on the life of Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal, India’s youngest Param Vir Chakra awardee.

The film hit theatres on January 1 and stars Agastya Nanda in the lead. Late Dharmendra, Asrani and Jaideep Ahlawat play key roles. Read on for the detailed day 2 box office report!

Ikkis Box Office Collection Day 2

Ikkis began its box office journey on a steady note. On Day 1, the film collected Rs 7 crore, giving trade a sense of cautious optimism. However, the momentum did not hold on its second day. According to Sacnilk, the film witnessed a sharp dip in collections on Day 2. It earned Rs 3.5 crore, marking an almost 50% drop from its opening day. With this, the film’s total domestic net collection now stands at Rs 10.5 crore.

The drop was not entirely unexpected. Day 2 fell on a working day, which often affects footfalls. Still, the overall occupancy figures show that the turnout remained modest across most regions.

On Day 2, Ikkis recorded an overall occupancy of 14.72%. Morning shows opened slow at 5.75%. Numbers improved in the afternoon with 14.73% occupancy. The growth then flattened out, with evening shows at 18.06% and night shows touching 20.33%.

In terms of regions, Delhi-NCR led with the highest number of shows. The film played across 652 screens in the circuit and recorded an average occupancy of 17%. Mumbai followed with 424 shows and an occupancy of 14.25%. Overall, Ikkis had around 2,400 shows nationwide. This is much lower than Dhurandhar, which is still running with nearly 3,800 shows.

When compared to recent Hindi war films, Ikkis presents a mixed picture. It has performed better than 120 Bahadur, which collected just Rs 6.1 crore in its first two days. That figure was lower than Ikkis’ opening day alone. However, the film lags far behind Akshay Kumar’s Sky Force. Released in January last year, Sky Force collected over Rs 34.25 crore in its first two days.

Interestingly, Ikkis has still outperformed Sriram Raghavan’s previous films. His last release, Merry Christmas, earned Rs 5.9 crore in its first two days. Andhadhun had collected Rs 7.4 crore in the same period.

Despite positive reviews and decent word of mouth, the road ahead looks tough. Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar continues to dominate theatres even in its fourth week. The Ranveer Singh starrer collected Rs 8.75 crore on Day 29 and is inching closer to the Rs 750 crore domestic milestone. Adding to the pressure is James Cameron’s Avatar: Fire and Ash, which has entered its third week and has already earned Rs 163.05 crore.

With two major blockbusters still pulling audiences, the coming weekend will be crucial for Ikkis. A strong jump could help stabilise its run.

About This War Drama

Directed by Sriram Raghavan, Ikkis (2026) tells the story of Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal and his heroic sacrifice during the Battle of Basantar in the 1971 Indo-Pak War. The film uses a dual timeline. One follows Arun’s journey from the National Defence Academy to the battlefield. The other tracks his father, Brigadier ML Khetarpal, on a deeply emotional trip to Pakistan years later.

Agastya Nanda makes his theatrical debut as Arun Khetarpal. Dharmendra appears in his final on-screen role as Arun’s father. The cast also includes Jaideep Ahlawat, Sikandar Kher and Simar Bhatia. The film runs for 147 minutes and was released on January 1, 2026. Trade reports estimate its budget to be between Rs 40 crore and Rs 60 crore.

Dhurandhar Box Office Collection Day 29: After four weeks of dominating the box office, Dhurandhar has finally seen a slowdown. Ranveer Singh’s spy thriller entered its fifth week with its first single-digit daily collection. Still, the film continues to rewrite records and outperform major blockbusters released in recent years.

Dhurandhar Box Office Collection Day 29

According to Sacnilk, Dhurandhar earned Rs 8.75 crore on Friday. This marks the first time the film has fallen below the Rs 10 crore mark since release. Even so, the figure is impressive for a fifth Friday and signals solid audience interest. Its current total is Rs 747.75 cr nett (in 29 days).

The film recorded an overall theatre occupancy of 18 percent on January 2. Morning shows stood at 9.65 percent, while afternoon occupancy rose to 20.32 percent. Evening shows performed slightly better at 21.93 percent.

More importantly, Dhurandhar has already crossed major lifetime milestones. It has beaten the worldwide collections of Pathaan (Rs 1,069.85 crore) and Jawan (Rs 1,163.62 crore). The film now ranks sixth among the highest-grossing Indian films of all time.

However, it is yet to surpass giants like KGF Chapter 2, RRR, Pushpa 2: The Rule, Baahubali 2: The Conclusion and Dangal.

Neuralink: Elon Musk, the founder of Neuralink, has remarked that it is now possible to restore full body functionality in individuals diagnosed with physical disabilities.

Musk went on to add that high-volume of Neuralink devices will start soon. He added that they would move to an almost entirely automated and streamlined surgical procedure in 2026. Previously, Musk has claimed that more than 1,000 implants would be achievable by 2026.

What is Neuralink?

Neuralink represents a groundbreaking brain-computer interface (BCI) technology leap. It is capable of translating neural signals directly into actionable command that can help restore full body functionality for individuals with physical disabilities, bypassing damaged muscles or nerves.

It helps in decoding thoughts to control devices, limbs or prosthetics by implanting ultra-thin threads into the human brain. In short, Neuralink offers hope where traditional medicine falls short.

Restores Mobility and Independence

It will help users to “type” messages or exercise control over virtual keyboards by thinking.

Some possible use cases of Neuralink would include the treatment of neurological disorders such as epilepsy, anxiety, Parkinson’s disease or depression. It can also be used to dismantle communication barriers, help artists create digital works mentally, or assist stroke survivors dictate emails.

Stranger Things 5: ‘Vecna Becomes Ravana…’ Why Indian Fans Are MOCKING Netflix Series, Comparing It To Bollywood Disaster Adipurush, Check

Stranger Things 5 Vecna compared to Adipurush

Indian fans watching Stranger Things 5 are not holding back. The final season of Netflix’s hit show has triggered strong reactions online. Memes, jokes, and sharp criticism are flooding social media.

This time, the buzz is not only about the ending. It is about one scene that instantly reminded viewers of Bollywood’s much-criticised film Adipurush. For many Indian fans, the similarity felt impossible to ignore.

As soon as the episodes dropped, comparisons started trending. Vecna’s scenes were linked to Om Raut’s 2023 mythological movie. The result was a mix of humour, trolling, and disappointment.

Stranger Things 5 Scene Sparks Adipurush Comparisons

The biggest talking point is a specific abduction scene in Stranger Things 5. In the sequence, Vecna captures Holly and walks away. She floats unconscious behind him.

Indian viewers quickly linked this moment to Adipurush. In Om Raut’s film, Saif Ali Khan’s Ravana abducts Kriti Sanon’s Sita in a very similar floating pose. The visual match became instant meme material.

One user sarcastically wrote, “Visionary Om Raut.”

A user commented, “Hollywood stealing from Bollywood. Big win.”

Another fan posted, “I was literally wondering where I had seen this scene before while watching the episode in @NetflixIndia. When #StrangerThings5 copied #Bollywood. Turn the Upside Down right side up, and Vecna becomes Ravana.”

One more said, “Duffer brother ne galti se aadi purush dekh li”

Fans shared side-by-side clips online. Many added jokes and captions mocking the creative choice. For Indian audiences, Adipurush has become a pop culture symbol for poor visuals. That made the comparison spread even faster.

Why Fans Are Unhappy With Vecna’s New Look

The criticism goes beyond one scene. Many viewers are unhappy with Vecna’s overall design in the final season.

Earlier seasons relied more on practical effects. That gave Vecna a darker and scarier presence. In the new season, the character appears in a CGI-heavy form. His body now looks like twisted vines and tree bark.

Fans were not impressed. Several called the visuals “cheap” and “flat.” Others said Vecna now looks like a generic monster. Many directly compared the effects to Adipurush, which was widely trolled for weak VFX.

Some memes even compared Vecna’s textured skin to onion pakoras.

Fans also questioned how Vecna was handled as a villain. Many felt he was weaker this time. Some joked that even a typical Bollywood villain puts up a better fight.

Stranger Things 5 Finale: How It Ended

The finale is titled Chapter Eight: The Rightside Up. In the final battle, the Hawkins group defeats Vecna and destroys the Upside Down.

Eleven and Will attack Vecna inside his mind. Their friends fight the Mind Flayer in the real world. It is revealed that the Mind Flayer is an ancient force that controlled Henry Creel.

Joyce Byers delivers the final blow by beheading Vecna with an axe. A massive explosion destroys the interdimensional bridge. Eleven stays behind to seal it forever. Her friends believe she is gone.

The story jumps 18 months ahead to 1989. Hopper and Joyce get engaged. Jonathan heads to NYU. Nancy joins the Boston Herald.

The series ends with Holly Wheeler and her friends starting a new Dungeons & Dragons game. The final shot shows Eleven walking through a calm, distant place. Her fate is left open.
