Box Office: Pushpa 2 Blasts Away Existing Records
X

The second instalment from the famous Pushpa franchise has opened on an absolute rampage note at the global box office, as the film has reportedly grossed over ₹294 crores in theatres worldwide.


As per the latest communication from the makers of Pushpa 2 the film has reportedly collected over ₹294 crores gross on its opening day at the global box office. This is by far the biggest opening for Indian film till date.

The film is largely fuelled by a super strong run in the Hindi mass belts across north India and the fundamentally strong Hindi markets overseas. With substantial contributions from the Hindi language, the film has gone absolute bonkers at the box office and the numbers posted in the new poster confirms the same.

This film released with virtually unprecedented ticket prices in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana as the producers managed to secure abnormally high rates in both the Telugu states with the kind of connections they have with both governments.

To put this into perspective, the earlier record for the highest collections on opening day was held by RRR, which had reportedly grossed over ₹234, crores on its first day. This number has been easily breached by Pushpa 2 and that too by margin of over ₹60 crore.

The strong advance booking trends that were exhibited by the film prior to the release, paired with the high ticket prices, and they both together delivered an earthshattering start to Pushpa at the global box office.

Now that the makers have started to circulate that the film has grossed over ₹294 crores at the box office, it would take some doing to better this number for any Indian film in the coming days.
