Karthikeya 2 the sequel to 2014 Telugu movie Karthikeya, directed by Chandoo Mondeti, hit theaters last week. Starring Nikhil Siddhartha, Anupama Parameswaran and Anupam Kher, the film opened with a good response from the audience. In fact, the company of Karthikeya 2 has seen an upward trend, helped by the lackluster performance of mainstream releases. Interesting, also in the overseas markets Karthikeya 2 went fairly well.

At the North American box office Karthikeya 2 which hit the screen on Friday last week has managed to land Rs. 8.03 cr. during the opening weekend. With Rs. 7.97 cr. comes from the US, where the film has a total of 120 screens and another Rs. 6.75 lakhs come in from Canada where the film was released on 2 screens, the company of Karthikeya 2 has posted pretty good collection figures.

Right now, with audiences patronizing the film and most mainstream releases turned down, the business prospects of Kartikeya 2 are clear. In fact, the trade believes that Telugu film collections will certainly continue to grow in the first week.
