Ajay Devgn and Riteish Deshmukh’s crime thriller ‘Raid 2’ is showing no signs of slowing down at the box office. On its 18th day, which was its third Sunday, the film enjoyed a strong boost in collections. With this steady climb, the film is now just a step away from entering the Rs. 150 crore club in India.
A Solid Third Sunday Boost
According to early estimates by Sacnilk, ‘Raid 2’ earned Rs. 5.50 crore on Day 18. This jump in numbers is a clear sign that the film continues to draw audiences, especially over the weekends. After performing well during its first 17 days and collecting around Rs. 143.50 crore, the Sunday surge has taken the film’s estimated total collection in India to Rs. 149 crore net. It now looks set to cross the Rs. 150 crore mark by the end of its third week.
Occupancy Levels Show Audience Interest
The occupancy levels for ‘Raid 2’ on its 18th day also reflect the film’s popularity. Overall, the film had a 34.90% occupancy in Hindi shows on Sunday, 18 May 2025. Morning shows recorded 14.13% occupancy, afternoon shows rose to 40.54%, and evening shows saw a high of 50.47%. Even night shows remained steady with 34.44% occupancy. This pattern shows that people are still turning up in big numbers, especially during the afternoon and evening slots, which are usually the peak hours for moviegoers on weekends.
Holding Strong Despite Hollywood Competition
What makes this rise even more impressive is the competition it faces at the box office. Two major Hollywood films—‘Final Destination: Bloodlines’ and ‘Mission: Impossible 8’—have hit theatres recently, but ‘Raid 2’ has managed to stay firm. The strong fan base of Ajay Devgn and the gripping nature of the film seem to be helping it survive the tough fight. And with another Hindi release, ‘Bhool Chuk Maaf’, arriving next weekend, all eyes are on how ‘Raid 2’ performs in the coming days.
