The much-awaited sequel Gladiator 2 hit the Indian box office with high expectations, but its performance has been relatively steady rather than explosive. Here’s a detailed day-wise box office collection breakdown and an analysis of its performance in India so far.
Gladiator 2 Day-Wise Box Office Collection in India

- Total English Net Box Office: ₹7.01 Cr
As of now, Gladiator 2 has accumulated ₹7.01 Cr at the Indian box office. This total includes both its opening week and the second weekend’s collections. The steady but unspectacular performance indicates that while Gladiator 2 still has an audience, it isn’t seeing the kind of explosive box office returns that some had expected.
The day-wise collection trend of Gladiator 2 suggests that while the film’s opening was decent, it hasn’t managed to keep the momentum going. The dip in collections post-weekend and a sharp fall on weekdays is common for films that cater primarily to niche audiences, especially English-language films in India. The steady increase over the weekends does show that the film has a loyal fanbase, but the overall earnings are below expectations for such a big-budget sequel.
Moreover, Gladiator 2 is facing stiff competition from other regional hits, which further impacts its ability to generate strong box-office numbers in India. It’s clear that the film’s performance is being restrained by limited appeal in non-metro areas and a highly competitive release schedule.
Conclusion
While Gladiator 2 has certainly sparked interest among fans of the franchise, its box office performance in India reflects the challenges of drawing in audiences for English-language films. With its ₹7.01 Cr total so far, it may not be considered a massive success, but it’s still holding on steadily, especially in metros where English films tend to perform better. In the coming weeks, it will be crucial to see if it can manage to sustain any form of momentum or if it will fade from the box office radar.
