Top 5 Opening Day Footfalls in India
Baahubali 2 conquers the top throne, registering footfalls of approximately 1.11 crores on day 1. It is the only Indian film to have scored over 1 crore footfalls on the opening day. The other biggies in the list lag by at least 0.30 crores. Achieving this feat may be out of reach for Pushpa 2, but it will compete against others on the list.
Take a look at the top 5 opening day footfalls of Indian films:
- Baahubali 2: 1.11 crores
- KGF Chapter 2: 0.69 crores
- RRR: 0.67 crores
- Saaho: 0.65 crores
- Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire: 0.57 crores
Where will Pushpa 2: The Rule land?
Pushpa 2 recorded ticket sales of 0.31 crores for the opening day in advance booking alone. This means it needs footfalls of 0.38 crore via spot bookings to beat KGF Chapter 2 and land on the second spot. It is sure to achieve that milestone. But it all depends on the occupancies fair throughout the day, to determine whether it will be able to beat Baahubali and score #1 place.
