Actor and filmmaker Raghava Lawrencce’s latest Tamil horror-comedy Kanchana 2 has grossed Rs108.3 million (Dh6.3 million) in the first two days in Tamil Nadu since its release on Friday.

“At this rate, it’s sure to set record opening weekend collections at the ticket window,” trade analyst Trinath said.

Directed by Lawrencce, the film is part of the highly successful Kanchana franchise, which opened the floodgates to several horror-comedies in Tamil cinema over the years.

Kanchana 2 also features Taapsee Pannu, Nitya Menen and Kovai Sarla in important roles.

Lawrencce has hinted that Kanchana 3 is in the offing.
