Kamal Haasan beats Prabhas

Chennai, Aug 11: Kamal Haasan's Vishwaroopam 2 has got a good start at the Chennai box office fans morning shows and registering below-par response for advance bookings.

Kamal Haasan's latest movie has opened to fairly positive reviews from critics and audience. The high-octane action sequences, visuals and Kamal's performance have been praised, but the movie fails to hold the viewers' attention at parts.

The multilingual movie has managed to beat the opening day record of SS Rajamouli's Baahubali 2.

On the first day, Vishwaroopam 2 earned close to Rs 93 lakh at the Chennai box office. This is considered to be a good number for a non-holiday release. Kamal Haasan's movie also did not have advance booking for tickets due to various issues and uncertainity over release till the last minute impacted the film's business.

Yet Vishwaroopam 2 has beaten the record of SS Rajamouli's Baahubali 2, which had minted around Rs 92 lakh from two languages (Tamil+Telugu).

Vishwaroopam 2 is now in the sixth position at the Chennai box office in the list of biggest openers in the capital city of Tamil Nadu after Rajinikanth's Kaala (Rs 1.75 crore), Vijay's Mersal (Rs 1.52 crore), Ajith's Vivegam (Rs 1.21 crore), Rajinikanth's Kabali (Rs 1.12 crore) and Vijay's Theri (Rs 1.05 crore).
