The movie ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule,’ starring Allu Arjun, has broken records and become the Indian film with the highest first-day earnings ever. On its opening day, it made a jaw-dropping Rs 175 crore, according to Niftystat.
This film outperformed SS Rajamouli’s ‘RRR,’ which made Rs 156 crore on its first day. It is the first Indian movie to earn over Rs 50 crore in two languages—Telugu and Hindi—on the same day. The Hindi version did especially well, making around Rs 65-67 crore and surpassing Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Jawan.’
On December 5, 2024, the movie had amazing attendance, with 80.14% of seats filled for the Telugu version and 51.53% for the Hindi version. Experts believe the second day might see a slight drop in earnings, predicting around Rs 120-140 crore. However, with strong demand, especially in popular areas, the Hindi version alone might bring in another Rs 50 crore.
