Kalki 2898 AD starring Prabhas holds the highest opening in the American region. Though Salaar, his other starrer holds the opening record in Telugu States, Rest of India and other Overseas markets, it failed to beat this record in the US region. Kalki 2898 AD opening was 50% more than that of Salaar’s and it even broke the all time record set by RRR with $500K for the premieres. Kalki 2898 AD also went close to Baahubali 2 in its long run.
But the interesting question is, Why does Kalki 2898 AD rule America? The Recent biggie, Devara starring NTR too failed to come close to Kalki 2898 AD even after securing good hype. It can be understood that Devara had no massive span, gripping genre and budget like Kalki 2898 AD. But, Pushpa 2 which enjoys a sky high amount of craze and expectation still struggles to beat Kalki 2898 AD.
The film is expected to break Kalki 2898 AD but it looks unlikely now. Pushpa 2 Total North American pre-sales are at $2 Million now. It needs a massive jump to break Kalki 2898 AD’s record. At this trend, the premieres record are likely to stay with Kalki 2898 AD. Except this US region, Pushpa 2 will have an earth-shattering opening in all the other territories by a big margin. We need to see how the film performs in the long run and if there could be any chances of beating Kalki 2898 AD.
