Not just the first day, the second day also went well for Akshay Kumar and the Mission Mangal team, as even on the second day, it minted 17.28 crores, thereby going steady at a terrific pace into the zone of a blockbuster.

It is to be noted that the movie is Akshay Kumar’s biggest opening in history and hence it becomes all the more special for the actor.

“The movie released on 15th and just on the day of its release, I received a call at night, where I was requested to hear another science-fiction related story so that it could be made.
