Tuesday’s turnout followed the familiar weekday pattern for English-language thrillers in the country: leaner daytime occupancy, a mild pick-up in the evening, and a total that stays comfortably modest without straying too far from Monday’s level.
Early trade estimates place Day 12 earnings at ₹0.25 to ₹0.28 crore (net). This puts Tuesday almost neck-and-neck with the film’s second Monday, which is typical for titles that rely on a niche but loyal urban audience. The footfalls were steady enough in major cities to prevent a sharper fall, but not strong enough to suggest any unexpected surge. English-language films outside the superhero and action-spectacle categories usually display this exact curve once they settle into their second week.
The metros continued to drive nearly all of the Tuesday business. Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Pune, and Hyderabad once again accounted for the bulk of the numbers, especially during late-evening shows when the core audience for this franchise tends to show up. These viewers, familiar with the earlier films and appreciative of slick heist setups, have given the sequel a dependable but contained traction since day one. The loyalty of this segment is the main reason the weekday drops have been controlled rather than severe
In contrast, the film’s presence outside these key markets has thinned further. Several tier-2 centres trimmed shows after the second weekend, and in some places the film has been pushed to smaller screens or limited time slots.
With the Day 12 tally added, the overall India total now edges close to ₹5.55 crore, reinforcing that the film’s local business has remained modest but consistent. The early second-week signs suggest the lifetime domestic numbers are likely to finish in the ₹6–6.5 crore range, unless the third weekend delivers an unexpected bump. For that to happen, word of mouth would need to extend beyond the metropolitan core, something that hasn’t materialised so far.
Internationally, the picture looks far more favourable. The overseas run continues to outshine the Indian tally by a wide margin, thanks to strong holds in North America, China, Australia, and several European territories. The franchise’s global brand value, along with its stylish mix of illusions and heists, has always had more resonance abroad than in the Indian theatrical space. That trend continues in this installment, where overseas numbers are setting the tone for the film’s commercial narrative.
