Allu Arjun’s Pan-India Superhit Pushpa 2: The Rule had set a benchmark in Indian cinema; the film by Sukumar stands at an unbelievable ₹1831 crore gross all over the globe in just 32 days as it dethroned the highest-grossed film in Indian cinema, which was Baahubali 2: The Conclusion. As for the box office collection domestic, it made ₹1438 crore gross thus cementing its place within the history books of Indian Cinema.
The production team finally declared the feat on X (formerly Twitter), ” #Pushpa2TheRule is now Indian Cinema’s INDUSTRY HIT with THE HIGHEST EVER COLLECTION FOR A MOVIE IN INDIA.” The movie has been trending across the globe, and the fire of passion for Allu Arjun’s performance as Pushpa Raj is burning.
Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2 Earns ₹1831 Crore from Box Office, Breaks Baahubali 2 Record
Pushpa 2 has proven to be a force to reckon with in surpassing Baahubali 2, which had held the top position for eight years. While Baahubali 2 earned ₹1416.9 crore in India and over ₹1810 crore globally, Pushpa 2 has rewritten the record books with its massive numbers.
However, the title of the highest-grossing Indian film worldwide still belongs to Aamir Khan’s Dangal, which grossed more than ₹2000 crore worldwide, with most of its revenue coming from international markets. Whether Pushpa 2 will challenge Dangal’s record remains to be seen.
From Moderate Success to Box Office Giant
Pushpa 2: The Rule, which has been released in theaters on December 5, with paid premieres on December 4, is the sequel to 2021’s Pushpa: The Rise. The latter, while doing moderately well during the pandemic, has taken the franchise into a global phenomenon with Pushpa 2. The film has been able to attract fans and critics alike by its breathtaking action sequences, gripping storyline, and an electrifying performance by Arjun.
The news of a third installment, Pushpa 3: The Rampage, announced at the end of Pushpa 2 has created an anticipation for the next part of the saga.
