Mathu Vadalara 2, which released recently, received positive reviews and emerged as a blockbuster, collecting around ₹15 crore worldwide. However, despite its success, the film underperformed in theatres compared to the buzz it generated on social media.
After its arrival on Netflix, Mathu Vadalara 2 gained even more popularity, with many netizens sharing key scenes that garnered significant views and likes. Viewers who watched the film on Netflix have expressed that it surpasses the first installment, making its underperformance in theatres more apparent.
One of the main reasons for its underperformance is attributed to poor promotion and its release during a non-holiday season. If the film had been launched during a festival period like Dussehra, it could have doubled its revenue. However, the current response has set the stage for Mathu Vadalara 3, which is expected to have a strong opening. The team has already announced plans for the third installment.
