Baaghi 2 box office collection: Whether it is in the domestic market or in the overseas one, Tiger Shroff and Disha Patani have powered up the earnings splendidly and they, as well as the filmmakers, are laughing all the way to the bank. Talking about the overseas collection, Baaghi 2 has made a splendid mark on the BO earning as much as Rs 39.38 cr by the end of the second weekend. This flies in the face of tradition! Till now, action thriller movies, the kind that Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone do, did well only if they came from Hollywood. To an extent the karate fight films out of China and Japan managed to make a dent on the BO - think Jackie Chan. However, Bollywood muscle-bound heroes never managed to grab the public's imagination abroad. There was no dearth of muscle-heavy actors in Bollywood. There is Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan in some of their movies, or even the others, all of whom have maintained their chiselled looks through the years. Now, Tiger Shroff has managed to do well with a movie that was not predicted to rise above average at the box office.

Shatters the myth that action films find limited patronage Overseas... Week 1: $ 5.03 m; Weekend 2: $ 1.03 mn; Total: $ 6.06 mn [₹ 39.38 cr]."

The other movie that has taken the box office by surprise is Hindi Medium in the Chinese market. Hind Medium box office collection has entered the Rs 100 crore club in China within 3 days. Hindi Medium opening weekend earnings are Rs 138.27 crore! This Irrfan Khan and Saba Qamar film has done resoundingly well abroad even though its success in domestic market was not this big. Irrfan Khan has another movie running theatres now and that is Blackmail, which has collected Rs 12.26 cr till date.
