Billa 2 Movie Box office collection first day UK, Australia
Ajith Kumar's latest Tamil movie Billa 2 has opened to a terrific response at the Box Office in India.

The action thriller film has got a grand opening at the collection centres in foreign counties like UK and Australia. As per Indian trade experts, it has raked Rs 44.08 lakhs nett at the Box Office in these countries on the first day.

Billa 2 was issued 18 certificate by the British Board of Film Classification and this certificate is equal to A certificate in India. But that has not stopped the film from doing well at the collection centres in UK. According to Trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the movie has collected Rs 30.28 lakhs UK (£35,265) nett at the UK Box Office on the first day.

The Tamil action thriller has also received very good response at the Australia Box Office. According to Trade analyst Taran Adarsh, Billa 2 has collected Rs 13.79 lakhs nett (A$24,469). The Bollywood trade expert opines that overall, the movie has received an excellent start in limited screens in these two countries.

However, Billa 2 has also been released in other foreign countries like USA, France, Malaysia and the Gulf Nations with English, Malay and Arabic subtitles. The movie's collection report of these countries is yet to be announced. Trade experts opine that the film's first day collection would cross Rs 2 crores at the International Box Office.


Billa 2' mania

Billa 2 fever grips the town. The movie has released across 2500 theaters worldwide, making it one of the largest Tamil releases ever. In Tamil Nadu, it opened across 600 theatres, and is dubbed as David Billa for the Telugu audience. It’s reported that the first show on the first day began as early as 4 am. The ardent fans of Thala Ajith are already queuing up to book tickets for the weekend.


The makers of the film are on cloud nine. Talking of the film's USP, producer Sunir Kheterpal, of In Entertainment, says that the film is a 127-minute unapologetic, quick and fast film, which does not waste any time with un-necessary songs in foreign locations and comedy tracks. “Less James Bond, more Jason Bourne; that's Billa II”, concludes Kheterpal.

The city is naturally on an Ajith high, and the entire credit for this kind of frenzy surrounding the film goes to the star, claim the makers. Billa is a franchise and has a high brand value, and the producers are sure this film will live up to the expectations of everyone.

There are going to be three surprise factors in the film. First, Ajith’s rival in the flick is the Bollywood hunk Vidyut Jamwal, who made an impressive debut last year with Hindi film Force. Other than Vidyut Jamwal, Kingfisher hottie Bruna Abdullah is also in the film. Former Miss India Paravathy Omanakuttan, too, is making her Tamil debut in Billa 2, and will be seen romancing Ajith.

Billa 2 is a prequel of Billa and will narrate the story of how David, an ordinary man from the coastal regions of south Tamil Nadu, becomes David Billa, a dreaded underworld don, with superstar Ajith Kumar reprising the role of the titular character. The movie is directed by actor Chakri Toleti.


Billa 2 rocks at Box Office on day one

Ajith Kumar's Billa 2 has opened up to mixed reviews from critics and audience. The movie, which was released in over 1,200 screens, has been massively welcomed by the Thala fans thereby giving a biggest opening for the Ajith film in the recent years.

The reports emerging from traders say that Ajith Kumar's movie was released in above 500 screens in Tamil Nadu and the majority of theatres got cent percent opening. Especially, in Chennai, not only single screens but also multiplexes ran for packed houses. The buzz is that the movie has got good opening in foreign countries like Malaysia, Dubai, etc.

According to reports, the tickets for the weekends have already been sold, which means that the first weekend will almost witness 100% occupancy. However, distributor Aascar Ravichandran could only recover his invested money on Billa 2, if the film gets the same kind of response for the next 10 days.

Billa 2 directed by Chakri Toleti is a prequel to Billa. The movie starring Ajith Kumar, Parvathy Omanakuttan and Bruna Abdullah is a gangster-thriller flick.
