The early estimates from the trade indicate that Sarkar has grossed around Rs 38-40 crore on the second day to make it the fastest Rs 100-crore grosser. 

Sarkar has got mixed reviews from all across the critics and audiences. MyNation gave 3 stars out of 5. One for Vijay, two for the punch dialogues and stunt sequences, and three for the BGM. 

Sarkar is a politically-loaded film that definitely works as a political launch pad for Vijay. His impactful dialogues, the stunt sequences with apt slow motion scenes, the BGM too became the perfect cocktail for a commercial entertainer.
