Rishabh Shetty’s Kantara 2 continues its strong run, but it couldn’t match the exceptional sixth-week hold of Ashwin Kumar’s Mahavtar Narimsha. While Mahavtar delivered a powerful ₹8.2 crore week, Kantara 2 managed ₹4.47 crore. Despite this, Kantara 2 remains far ahead overall with ₹619.52 crore, compared to Mahavtar’s ₹250 crore, cementing its dominance for the year.
Rishabh Shetty’s Kantara: A Legend Chapter 1 has already proven itself at the box office, it is not only the biggest film of the year but also the 7th biggest hit of Indian cinema. But there are few things that are also not within the grasp of the biggest films like having a strong hold in the 6th week. Kantara 2 has fallen short of matching the sixth-week collections of Ashwin Kumar mythological animation film Mahavtar Narimsha, a film that was released several months ago and changed the perception of animation films in India. Both films carry strong cultural resonance and have attracted loyal fanbases across multiple regions. Yet, when placed side by side, Mahavtar Narimsha’s sixth-week numbers clearly stand taller in the 6th week.
