On the eleventh day of its release, Vyjayanthi Films, the film's producers, declared that the movie had earned Rs 900 crore globally. During its run, the Sandeep Reddy Vanga-directed film Animal, starring Ranbir Kapoor, became one of the highest grossing films of 2023, earning Rs 915 crore globally. Now, Kalki 2898 AD has surpassed that figure.
Along with Jawan (Rs 1160 crore) and Pathaan (Rs 1055 crore), both starring Shah Rukh Khan, Animal was one of the three global hits of 2023. However, for lead actor Prabhas, Kalki 2898 AD is still his second-largest hit; SS Rajamouli's Baahubali 2, which grossed over Rs 1788 crore globally in 2017, is still his best hit. However, Kalki 2898 AD now faces competition, particularly in the southern market, from Indian 2, starring Kamal Hassan. The Prabhas will also compete with Akshay Kumar's Sarfira, in Hindi.
