Pushpa 2 Box Office: Allu Arjun's Film Approaches Rs 1,000 Crore, Setting a New Milestone for Indian Cinema

Pushpa 2: The Rule, starring Allu Arjun, has emerged as a box-office powerhouse, setting unprecedented records in the Indian film industry. According to early reports from Sacnilk.com, the film garnered an impressive Rs 64.1 crore net across all languages on its first Monday, bringing its total net earnings to a remarkable Rs 593.1 crore. This achievement positions Pushpa 2 among the highest-grossing films in Indian cinema history.

Day 5 Box Office Performance

Despite a slight decline in earnings, Pushpa 2 continued to dominate with Rs 64.1 crore net on Monday. The sustained high demand and occupancy suggest that the film is poised to surpass the Rs 600 crore mark soon. Industry experts speculate that Pushpa 2 could potentially challenge the all-time record set by Baahubali 2, though it is still early to make definitive predictions.

Exceptional Extended Weekend

The movie wrapped up an outstanding opening weekend, grossing an estimated Rs 162 crore on Sunday alone. This achievement makes Pushpa 2 the second Indian film to surpass the Rs 150 crore mark in a single day, a record it now exclusively holds. The film also reached a historic milestone in North India, attaining the highest-ever single-day gross collections in the region, nearing Rs 100 crore, although it fell just short due to capacity constraints in certain areas. Nonetheless, it remains unparalleled, as no other film has achieved over Rs 70 crore in this region.

Regional Success Across India

On Monday, the Hindi version of Pushpa 2 was the top contributor, earning Rs 46 crore, while the Telugu version added Rs 14 crore. The Tamil version collected Rs 3 crore, and the Kannada and Malayalam versions earned Rs 50 lakh and Rs 60 lakh, respectively. By the end of Monday, the film’s total net collection across India stood at an impressive Rs 593.1 crore, with the Hindi version leading at Rs 331.7 crore, followed by Rs 211.7 crore from the Telugu version. The Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam versions contributed Rs 34.45 crore, Rs 4.05 crore, and Rs 11.2 crore, respectively, highlighting the film's broad appeal.

Hindi Version Shines

The Hindi-dubbed version surpassed expectations, bringing in Rs 46 crore on Monday alone and accumulating a total of Rs 331.7 crore, making it the highest-grossing language version of the film.

Global Achievements and Pan-Indian Appeal

Pushpa 2 achieved a staggering Rs 829 crore worldwide over its opening weekend, becoming the fastest Indian film to cross the Rs 800 crore milestone. The film is on track to reach Rs 1,000 crore, marking a new benchmark for Indian cinema. Its historic debut saw Rs 175 crore collected on the opening day in India, followed by Rs 90.1 crore on the second day, bringing the two-day domestic total to Rs 265 crore. Globally, it earned Rs 417.5 crore within 48 hours, an extraordinary feat for an Indian film. The Hindi version contributed significantly, amassing Rs 125.3 crore in two days, surpassing the Telugu version's Rs 118.05 crore.

A Landmark for Indian Cinema

Backed by Mythri Movie Makers, Pushpa 2 is being hailed as a transformative moment for Indian cinema. The production house celebrated its monumental success, referring to the film as the "biggest wildfire at the box office" on their official social media channels.

As Pushpa 2 continues its sensational run, it not only redefines box-office success but also reinforces the global prominence of South Indian cinema.
