Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2: The Rule has firmly entrenched itself as one of the most successful Indian films in recent years, with box office collections continuing to soar.
Released on December 5, the film has broken multiple records, both in India and internationally, and shows no signs of slowing down as it approaches its second week in theaters.
As of Tuesday, reports from Indian Express and Sacnilk reveal that Pushpa 2 has crossed the impressive Rs 900 crore net mark at the domestic box office. Despite a slight dip in collections on its 12th day, the film’s overall performance remains exceptional.
On Monday, the film earned Rs 27.75 crore, its lowest single-day revenue so far, but it still maintained its stronghold at the top of the box office.
By the end of its first week, Pushpa 2 had grossed Rs 725.8 crore in India, with the momentum continuing into the second week. The film grossed Rs 63.3 crore on Saturday and Rs 76.6 crore on Sunday, bringing its 12-day total to Rs 929.85 crore in the domestic market.
The film’s occupancy rates remained strong, with Telugu showings at 24.11% and Hindi at 21.26% on Monday, a clear indication of its broad appeal across audiences.
Globally, Pushpa 2 has exceeded expectations, with its total earnings crossing the Rs 1400 crore mark by day 11. The film is now closing in on the coveted Rs 1500 crore milestone, further cementing its place among the top 10 highest-grossing Indian films of all time. According to production house Mythri Movie Makers, the global earnings stood at Rs 1409 crore by the 11th day, with projections indicating it will soon join the elite Rs 1500 crore club.
The film’s opening was a historic one, with the highest-ever collection for an Indian film on its release day. Pushpa 2 earned Rs 165 crore net in India and Rs 294 crore worldwide on its opening day, surpassing major films such as Stree 2, Gadar 2, Animal, and Jawan to become the top second-week grosser at the Hindi box office.
In a remarkable achievement, Pushpa 2 became the fastest Hindi film to cross Rs 500 crore net, surpassing the previous record set by Jawan. As of day 12, its Hindi box office total stands at Rs 573.1 crore, and it is well on track to become the top Hindi film in India within three weeks.
The film has already surpassed the lifetime earnings of RRR (Rs 1230 crore) and KGF: Chapter 2 (Rs 1215 crore), making it the third-highest-grossing film in India. Directed by Sukumar, Pushpa 2 stars Allu Arjun in the titular role of Pushpa Raj, a ruthless gangster, in a clash with his rival Bhairon Singh Shekhawat, played by Fahadh Faasil. Rashmika Mandanna also stars as the female lead.
With its global box office success, Pushpa 2 is now poised to challenge the long-standing records set by Baahubali 2 and Dangal, and it looks set to dominate the box office for the foreseeable future.
