Baaghi 2 has not only surpassed the day one collections of its predecessor but has also become one of the highest action/adventure openers at the box office and the biggest opener for any Tiger Shroff film.

Baaghi 2‘s strong word of mouth mainly for Tiger’s jaw dropping action sequences has helped the film to fill in seats by the audiences in multiplexes and single screens.

According to cinema business trackers, the business of the film is expected to gain even more momentum in the first weekend.

Within a day of its release the film has surpassed the total collections of multiple films like Kaalakaandi, 1921, Aiyaary and Pari in 2018.

Directed by Ahmed Khan, Baaghi 2 also stars Disha Patani, Manoj Bajpayee, Randeep Hooda and Prateik Babbar alongside Tiger.

Baaghi 2 was released worldwide on March 30.
