"Singam 2" has grossed more than ₹50 crore from Indian markets in the last ten days. The film's best collections come from Tamil Nadu (Chennai, Chengalpet and Coimbatore), where Suriya enjoys a massive fan following. It minted around ₹39 crore in the state.

The action entertainer has also performed well in Karnataka, fetching approximately ₹6 crore. The Bangalore box office particulalry witnessed impressive collections for the film. According to reports, "Singam 2" minted ₹1.25 crore in the first few days of its release. The film was running to packed houses during the first week.

In Kerala, the film was released in a record number of screens at over 150. The performance of the Suriya starrer in Kerala was good during its release, but the film crashed after a few days due to Hartal (total shutdown) and the first day of Ramzan. The collections from Kerala are pegged at around ₹4 crore and in North India, "Singam 2" earned ₹70 lakh.
