Icon star Allu Arjun Pushpa 2- The rule has continued its box office dominance, even surpassing the expectations set by its first-day competitors. On its 21st day, the film not only stayed strong but also outperformed Varun Dhawan’s much-anticipated film, Baby John, in terms of box office earnings. Despite being a remake of Atlee's Theri, Baby John has faced a tough reception, with early reviews falling short of expectations and collections lagging behind. Reports indicate that Pushpa 2 earned more on its 21st day than Baby John did on its opening day, reinforcing the massive appeal of Allu Arjun's film.

Pushpa 2 has already collected an impressive ₹640 crore nett, and with the film still performing strongly at the box office, it is on track to breach the ₹700 crore mark or even touch ₹750 crore in the coming weeks. The Hindi version of the film has found massive success, captivating audiences with its gripping narrative and stellar performances. With such a strong showing, it seems Pushpa 2 has created an unshakeable stronghold in the Hindi market, leaving its competitors far behind.

In stark contrast, Baby John had a weak opening, grossing only ₹2 crore during the morning shows, with an occupancy of just 14%. This is a far cry from the kind of numbers expected from a big-budget pan-India entertainer, especially with the backing of Atlee, who delivered the massive hit Jawan earlier this year. Even though Baby John is expected to rake in more through afternoon and evening shows, the early reports suggest that it will struggle to match the dominance of Pushpa 2, especially with the festive season providing an additional boost for the latter.

With the holiday season in full swing, Pushpa 2 has more than enough momentum to continue its successful run at the box office. The movie is now not only a huge hit but also on its way to becoming one of the biggest blockbusters of the year. If the current trend holds, Pushpa 2 could very well end its theatrical run as one of the highest-grossing films in recent times, further solidifying its place in Indian cinema history.
