Ek Villain is the second super hit film of the year of 2 States though it remains to be seen if it becomes the biggest hit of the year till date by crossing the business of 2 States. The top grosser of the first half will remain Holiday - A Soldier Is Never Off Duty as Ek Villain will not go towards the 110 crore nett mark.
The film collected around 3.50 crore nett on its second Friday which is a fairly big drop of 75% from day one. The film benefited from two weak releases otherwise the drop could have been more.
The film should have solid growth on Saturday and Sunday but is unlikely to challenge the second week figures of films like Holiday - A Soldier Is Never Off Duty and 2 States. The second week business of Jai Ho may also be out of reach for Ek Villain. The lifetime business of the film may hit 100 crore nett but that remains to be seen.
