Milap
Zaveri's
mass
entertainer
Satyameva
Jayate
2
starring
John
Abraham
and
Divya
Khosla
Kumar
released
a
day
earlier
before
Salman
Khan-Aayush
Sharma's
Antim:
The
Final
Truth.
However,
the
film
failed
to
meet
the
expectations
of
the
audience
and
registered
a
dull
opening
on
first
day.
Satyameva
Jayate
2
failed
to
draw
the
audience
back
to
the
multiplexes.
However
it
fared
a
little
better
in
single
screens.
After
collecting
an
opening
of
Rs
3.60
crore
on
Day
1,
the
film
failed
to
pick
up
on
second
day.
If
the
early
estimates
are
to
be
believed,
the
John
Abraham-starrer
collected
around
Rs
1.85-2
crore
nett
range.
Earlier,
trade
analyst
Taran
Adarsh
had
tweeted
the
first
day
box
office
collection
and
written,
"#SatyamevaJayate2
registers
low
numbers
on
Day
1...
Multiplexes
weak...
Single
screens
of
mass
circuits
better,
but
not
enough
to
compensate...
Going
forward,
will
need
to
grow
on
Day
2,
since
it
faces
another
mass-centric
film
[#Antim]...
Thu

It
is
to
be
noted
that
the
opening
collection
of
Satyameva
Jayate
2
is
much
less
than
the
first
film
which
had
grossed
Rs
19.50
crore
despite
clashing
with
Akshay
Kumar's
Gold
at
the
box
office.
Recently
in
an
interview
with
PTI,
director
Milap
Zaveri
had
said
that
he
has
sensed
disdain
from
a
section
of
the
audience
towards
commercial
films
often
dubbed
as
'masala'
entertainers
even
though
every
industry
in
the
world
ultimately
relies
on
these
films
to
keep
the
commerce
alive.
He
further
added
that
the
money
earned
from
such
films
empowers
other
directors
to
experiment
with
their
content.
