Combining both Indian and overseas gross, the worldwide box office collection stands at 146.58 crores gross.

As per Track Tollywood’s report, Netflix bagged the streaming rights of Indian 2 at 120 crores and paid the amount before the theatrical release. Now, as the film has faced a complete rejection, the streaming platform wants a considerable chunk of its money back, and it is not agreeing to a deal of 120 crores.
Lately, OTT platforms have been deciding the final deal amount after films’ performances at the box office. So, in the case of Indian 2, the negotiation is expected to happen between Netflix and the makers. Till then, its OTT premiere will be halted.
