Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar's much-hyped 2.0 has performed well at the US box office in its third weekend. The movie was screened in over 110 locations in North America and earned an estimated amount of $186,446 in three days (Friday, Saturday and Sunday).
On Friday, 2.0 earned $43,019 from 108 locations and the business substantially increased on Saturday as it earned $93,427 from 115 screens. The early reports coming from social media indicate that the Rajinikanth's flick has raked in over $50,000.
The total collection of 2.0 in the US from the three versions now stands at $5,360,728. Here is the day-wise collection of Shankar's creation in the US:

After a slow start, the movie, which saw the light of the day in over 800 screens in North America, has done quite well in the US to become the highest-grossing Tamil movie in the US. The next major challenge for 2.0 is to breach into $6 million club in the US.
Meanwhile, the collection in the majority of the centres has dropped. This weekend, a few big movies are releasing and the business of 2.0 is likely to be affected.
2.0 is a science fiction produced by Lyca Productions. The movie is about the impact of cell phone tower radiation. The performance of Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar backed by top-class visuals are the highlights of the Tamil flick in which Amy Jackson is the female lead.
