Student Of The Year 2 failed to perform well at the box office on Sunday and it collected Rs 12.75 crore on the third day of its release, reports Bollywood trade analyst Taran Adarsh. According to Taran Adarsh, the dip in the film's business could be attributed to the Indian Premiere League finale and the sixth phase of polling. The film has collected Rs 38.83 crore within three days of its release. Sharing the film's box office performance so far, Taran Adarsh tweeted: "Student Of The Year 2 saw limited growth on Day 2, while the sixth phase of polling [cinemas were shut till evening] + IPL 2019 Final [evening onwards] affected its biz on Day 3... Fri 12.06 cr, Sat 14.02 cr, Sun 12.75 cr. Total: Rs 38.83 cr. India biz."

In a separate tweet, Taran Adarsh stated that in comparison to Tiger Shroff's previous releases, the film sort of under performed and that it needs to "maintain the pace on weekdays." Taran Adarsh tweeted, "Student Of The Year 2 has a decent weekend, but when compared to Tiger Shroff's earlier releases [data follows], the numbers should've been much higher than Baaghi [2016] at least... SOTY 2 has an important task ahead: It needs to maintain the pace on weekdays."
