Pushpa 2 Collection Day 6 Can Allu Arjun’s Film Cross ₹1000 Crore Worldwide?

Released on December 5, 2024, Pushpa 2: The Rule has created a storm at the box office, continuing the legacy of its predecessor, Pushpa: The Rise. The movie, starring Allu Arjun, Rashmika Mandanna, and Fahadh Faasil, has already proven to be a massive success, but its performance on Day 6 is showing some signs of a slowdown. This article takes a detailed look at the film’s box office collection, its journey so far, and what to expect in the coming days.

Pushpa 2 Box Office

The film made an incredible debut, grossing ₹175.1 crore on its opening day, which included paid previews. This was a massive feat, leaving trade experts stunned. With a release across 12,000 screens worldwide, Pushpa 2 made its presence felt not just in India, but across the globe. The film’s opening performance set a new benchmark for Indian cinema, with Allu Arjun’s stellar performance at the center of it all.

Despite the massive initial success, Pushpa 2 has faced a decline in earnings as it entered its first full week. On Day 6, the film earned ₹38 crore in India, bringing its total domestic box office collection to ₹645.95 crore. However, the numbers still place it among the top earners of the year, surpassing even Gadar 2, Animal, and Baahubali 2 in Hindi earnings.

Pushpa 2’s Decline on Weekdays

The box office saw a noticeable dip during the weekdays. On Monday, the earnings dropped by 54.31%, bringing the film’s revenue to ₹64.45 crore. Tuesday’s performance showed another decline, with an 18.70% drop, earning ₹52.50 crore across all languages. This trend of reduced earnings on weekdays is not uncommon for high-grossing films, as the excitement of the weekend fades, and audiences tend to watch the movie on their own time.

However, even with this decline, Pushpa 2 is still performing impressively. The film’s ability to earn large amounts in its early days, despite a significant drop on weekdays, showcases its widespread popularity and loyal fanbase. With Pushpa 2 already crossing the ₹900 crore mark globally, it is inching closer to becoming one of the few films in Indian cinema to enter the ₹1,000 crore club.

Language Breakdown and Regional Performance

Pushpa 2 has been released in multiple languages, including Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam, and has seen varying success in each region. The film has dominated in Telugu, earning ₹222.6 crore by Day 6. Its Hindi version has also performed exceptionally well, grossing ₹370.1 crore. Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam versions have also contributed to the total, though not as significantly as the primary languages.

For example, on Day 6, the Telugu version earned ₹11 crore, while the Tamil and Kannada versions earned ₹2.6 crore and ₹40 lakh, respectively. The Hindi version, however, continued its strong performance, grossing ₹38 crore, surpassing films like Gadar 2 and Animal in the process.

Pushpa 2 Worldwide Collection: Nearing the ₹1000 Crore Milestone

Globally, Pushpa 2 is closing in on the ₹1,000 crore mark, a monumental achievement for any Indian film. By Day 6, the film had grossed approximately ₹922 crore worldwide. It has already made history by becoming the fastest Indian film to reach the ₹900 crore milestone. With the film’s worldwide performance continuing to grow, there’s a high likelihood that it will soon join the ranks of a select few films that have crossed the ₹1,000 crore mark.

The international market has been a key contributor to the film’s success, especially in regions with large Indian diasporas. Countries like the US, UAE, and UK have been significant contributors to the film’s global revenue, with Pushpa 2 performing well in international markets where its predecessor also saw success.

The Road Ahead for Pushpa 2

While the film has shown signs of a dip in earnings post-weekend, it is still on track to become one of the highest-grossing films of the year. The major challenge for Pushpa 2 lies in maintaining its momentum in the coming weeks. However, with strong word-of-mouth, the film is likely to continue performing well during the holiday season, particularly during special releases and festivals.

In terms of the Indian box office, Pushpa 2’s performance is impressive considering its massive competition from other films, including Jawan and Tiger 3. However, Allu Arjun’s mass appeal and the film’s widespread popularity across various languages are key factors in its success. As the film nears its ₹1,000 crore mark, the anticipation for Pushpa 3 has already begun, with fans eagerly awaiting the next installment of this action-packed franchise.
