Hyderabad: As the highly anticipated release of Nag Ashwin's mythological sci-fi film Kalki 2898 AD draws near, the North American box office is poised to witness a phenomenal surge in ticket sales. The latest trailer, which was unveiled on Thursday, has already made a mark, with a significant impact on advance bookings.
Starring an ensemble cast, including Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, Deepika Padukone, and Disha Patani, Kalki 2898 AD has shattered the US $2 million mark in premiere day sales in North America, with a current total collection of US $2.2 million. A staggering US $2 million of this amount has been generated from the American market alone, with nearly 66,000 tickets sold, while the remaining amount comes from Canada.
As the film gears up for its release on June 27, 2024, it is now on track to secure a spot among the top two highest-grossing premiere day sales in the North American circuit, immediately after SS Rajamouli's RRR, which holds the current record with US $2.75 million, and Prabhas and Prashanth Neel's Salaar: Part 1 Ceasefire, which raked in US $2.3 million.
