The India Story Falls Flat: Kajal Aggarwal’s Film Nets Only ₹41 Lakh on Day Two

The Tamil‑language film 'The India Story', starring Kajal Aggarwal and directed by S. S. Rajamouli, opened in theatres across India on 14 September 2023. The second‑day collection of ₹41 lakh, as reported by trade analysts, points to a sluggish response from audiences. The modest figure follows a tepid first‑day performance, suggesting that the film has struggled to attract viewers despite the star’s popularity. Industry observers note that the film faces stiff competition from other releases in the same week, which may have diluted its box‑office potential. Producers have expressed concern that marketing and promotional efforts may not have reached the target demographic effectively.
