Nandamuri Balakrishna’s Akhanda 2 arrived with massive anticipation, but the fantasy action thriller has struggled to maintain momentum at the box office. The film reportedly lost a significant portion of its audience due to underwhelming pre-release promotions and received largely negative reviews following its theatrical release on December 12, 2025.

According to Sacnilk, Akhanda 2 collected around ₹5.35 crore net in India on its fourth day across all languages. The film recorded an overall 23.47% Telugu occupancy on Monday, December 15, highlighting a sharp drop in footfalls. With this, its total India net collection has reached approximately ₹60.90 crore.

The day-wise trend shows a steep decline after the opening weekend. Thursday premieres earned around ₹8 crore, followed by ₹22.50 crore on Day 1. Collections dropped to ₹15.50 crore on Day 2, a decline of over 31%, and Day 3 saw a marginal dip with earnings of ₹14.90 crore. The biggest fall came on Day 4, with collections crashing to around ₹5.4 crore, a drop of over 64%.

Directed by Boyapati Srinu and produced by 14 Reels Plus and IVY Entertainment, Akhanda 2 now faces a challenging run, with weekday performance expected to play a crucial role in determining its overall box office outcome.
