Earlier, while disclosing the day 1 collection of OMG 2, Taran Adarsh stated that the movie is “heavily dependent on word-of-mouth.” He added that this factor will determine the movie's fate at the box office. The trade analyst claimed that on its opening day, OMG 2 performed beyond expectations. However, the day 1 numbers were “severely impacted by the Gadar 2 wave.”

Taran Adarsh wrote, “OMG 2 fares much better than expected, although the numbers are severely impacted by the Gadar 2 wave… Recorded better occupancy at prime multiplexes in evening and night shows, which should ensure solid growth over the weekend… Fri Rs 10.26 cr. #India biz. OMG 2 is heavily dependent on word of mouth and this factor will decide where it lands in the coming days… The Independence Day holiday [on Tuesday] will certainly boost its biz, but it needs to sustain beyond the big holiday to establish itself.”
