As was expected, Liger faced a crash at the box office on its second day, collecting Rs. 9.25 crores on Friday, for a two-day running total of Rs. 28.25 crores in India. The drop from opening day was 52 per cent, which is of course a lot but the real drop was more like 70 per cent as the Friday numbers were aided by the release of the Hindi version which collected Rs. 4.50 crores approx. The opening day was barely decent for the movie and now this big drop is a death punch.

The box office collections of Liger at the Indian box office are as follows:

Thursday - Rs. 19 crores

Friday - Rs. 9.25 crores

Total - Rs. 28.25 crores

Liger is basically done in Telugu states, with multiple centres running on a deficit on Friday. It grossed Rs. 3.80 crores approx in AP/TS yesterday, bringing in a share of just Rs. 1.30 crores. There will be some collections over the weekend on Saturday and Sunday, but come Monday it will be lights out for the film. A similar sight was there in other South Indian states, which faced big drops in collections. The Hindi version opened full day yesterday in North India to not exactly good numbers, but for what it's worth, it could have been far worse.
