Telugu cinema has consistently redefined box office benchmarks, with Baahubali 2: The Conclusion holding an unparalleled legacy since its release. The film not only shattered records with its opening day collections but also set a remarkable milestone in footfalls. Despite many films surpassing its revenue figures, Baahubali 2 still boasts the highest footfall record for its opening day.
In the Hindi belt, Baahubali 2 achieved an unprecedented 6.5 lakh advance bookings in national chains. No other film has crossed this figure, with Pathaan and Jawan at 5.5 lakh and KGF: Chapter 2 at 5.2 lakh, respectively. However, the eagerly awaited Pushpa 2: The Rule, starring Allu Arjun, is now on track to break this monumental record.
With advance bookings opening just a day ago, Pushpa 2 has already sold over 1 lakh tickets in national chains within 16 hours. Industry experts predict the final advance bookings to exceed 7 lakh, setting a new benchmark. The film’s momentum in non-national chains, including single screens and mass-market stations, is even more impressive, promising a massive opening across all sectors.
As the countdown to its release begins, Pushpa 2 is poised to deliver the biggest opening in Hindi cinema history. The only question that remains is the scale of its dominance. Telugu cinema, once again, is on the verge of rewriting box office history.
