Actress Sonakshi Sinha's action-packed avatar in "Akira" is having a steady run at the box-office. The film has amassed Rs 10.45 crore in two days of its release.

Directed by filmmaker A.R. Murugadoss, "Akira" released on Friday.

According to a statement released by film's publicist, "Akira" managed to put up a good day two with a slight jump.

"The film has collected Rs 5.30 crore on day two. On the first day, the film collected Rs 5.15 crore. The total collection of the film so far is Rs 10.45 crore," the statement read.

Presented by Fox Star Studios, "Akira" brought Sonakshi and Murugadoss together once again. He had previously directed Sonakshi in the film "Holiday", which was a success at the box office.

"Akira" sees Sonakshi's character coming to Mumbai from Jodhpur, where she gets into a tiff with the goons of the college she enrolls in. The story is about her fight to come out of a case, where the college goons, a corrupt policemen played by Anurag Kashyap and another played by Konkona Sen Sharma, play crucial components.
