Vishnu Vishal and Aishwarya Lekshmi's Gatta Kusthi 2 registered a strong jump at the box office on its second day, driven by weekend footfalls. After opening to Rs 3.11 crore gross on Friday, the film collected Rs 5.46 crore gross on Saturday, taking its total gross to Rs 8.57 crore in just two days.

According to Sacnilk.com, Gatta Kusthi 2 earned Rs 5.46 crore gross (Rs 4.75 crore net) on Day 2, compared to Rs 3.11 crore gross (Rs 2.70 crore net) on its opening day. The film has now amassed Rs 8.57 crore gross in India and Rs 1.85 crore from overseas markets for a worldwide gross total of Rs 10.42 crore. Its cumulative India net collection stands at Rs 7.45 crore.

Tamil Nadu continued to be the film's biggest market, contributing Rs 4.75 crore gross on Saturday alone, taking the state's two-day total to Rs 7.55 crore. Karnataka has contributed Rs 0.60 crore so far, followed by Kerala with Rs 0.31 crore, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana with ₹0.05 crore, and the rest of India with Rs 0.06 crore.

The film also witnessed an increase in occupancy, rising from 26% on Friday to 38% on Saturday across 2,177 tracked shows, indicating improved audience turnout over the weekend.

Helmed by Chella Ayyavu, Gatta Kusthi 2 also stars Ramya Krishnan, Yogi Babu, Karunaas, Munishkanth, Kaali Venkat, Lizzie Antony, Gajaraj, Sreeja Ravi, Karunakaran, Zara Zyanna, and Mokksha, among others. The film features technical work by cinematographer KM Bhaskaran, editor Barath Vikraman and composer Sean Roldan.

An excerpt from CE's review of the film reads, "Nevertheless, Gatta Kusthi 2 does a lot of things right, especially with the character of Mathi, who talks and behaves like a first-standard girl. She isn’t asked to act much beyond her years, and it is a welcome relief."

With positive momentum heading into Sunday, Gatta Kusthi 2 will be aiming to sustain its weekend run and post a healthy opening weekend total at the box office.
