Allu Arjun’s Film Leads With 20% Higher Collection!

There’s literally no record pending to be broken for Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2. Right from the opening day, the magnum opus has been enjoying a historic ride at the Indian box office. It’s been over two weeks, but there’s still no sign of slowing down. Today, it will surpass Baahubali 2’s collection of 1031 crores to become the highest-grossing film in the history of Indian cinema. On day 16, the film crossed 1020 crores and is now inches away from creating history.

In the first two weeks (15 days), the Pushpa sequel amassed a staggering 1006.75 crore net at the Indian box office, making history as the fastest entrant into the 1000-crore club. Yesterday, considering new releases like Mufasa: The Lion King, Vanvaas, and others, the film was expected to suffer a dent, but surprisingly, it performed much better than the fresh theatrical arrivals.

On the third Friday (day 16), Pushpa 2 saw a dip of 22% from day 15’s 18 crores as it earned 14 crores. This is a solid number, and today, it will have another monstrous Saturday. In the meantime, the film has earned a mind-blowing 1020.75 crore net (all languages) at the Indian box office in 16 days.

With 1020.75 crores in the kitty already, Pushpa 2 is much ahead of Baahubali 2. In a span of 16 days, Baahubali 2 amassed 848 crores. So, the Allu Arjun starrer is ahead by 20% more collection.

Take a look at the day-wise collection breakdown of Pushpa 2 VS Baahubali 2 at the Indian box office:

• Day 1- 179.25 crores VS 121 crores
