Filmmaker Sukumar’s Pushpa 2: The Rule has set a new benchmark at the box office, shattering records with its massive opening day collection of Rs. 72 crores in Hindi. This impressive feat makes it not only the highest non-holiday and non-festival opener but also the highest opening day collection for any Hindi film.
The previous record holder was Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal, which grossed Rs. 55 crores on its opening day. However, Pushpa 2 has surpassed this milestone, showcasing the ‘wildfire’ effect of the movie at the box office.
While Shah Rukh Khan starrer Jawan holds the record for the highest holiday opener with Rs. 66 crores, Pushpa 2 has taken over as the new record holder. The film’s immense success also makes it the highest Hindi opener ever.
Produced by Mythri Movie Makers and Sukumar Writings, Pushpa 2 stars Allu Arjun, Rashmika Mandanna, and Fahadh Faasil in pivotal roles.
