With every passing day, the film's box office performance is skyrocketing, leaving audiences and critics alike in awe. Directed by Sukumar, this sequel to the 2021 hit Pushpa: The Rise has become a huge success across India.
In the past couple of days, Pushpa 2 has witnessed a remarkable increase in collections, with Hindi version firmly at the center of its box-office success. As of now, the film has crossed an astounding Rs 753.9 crore in net earnings in Hindi, according to Sacnilk.

- Brand Pushpa is A Global Hit
According to the makers, Pushpa 2 crossed the Rs 1719.5 crore mark within 22 days, setting a new benchmark as the fastest Indian film to achieve this milestone. With worldwide collections nearing the Rs 1800 crore mark, the film is on track to surpass Baahubali 2's global record of Rs 1788 crore, and may soon claim the title of the highest-grossing Indian film ever, overtaking Dangal.
- Online Ticketing Record
Underlining its massive popularity, Pushpa 2 has shattered records on the online ticketing platform BookMyShow. In just 17 days, the film sold over 18 million tickets, surpassing KGF: Chapter 2’s lifetime sales of 17.1 million tickets. With a total of 50 million (5 crore) tickets sold so far, Pushpa 2 has now become the most-watched movie in India post the pandemic, alongside KGF: Chapter 2.
- Sankranthi Release Competition
While Pushpa 2 continues to dominate the box office, it faces competition from a slew of January releases, especially around the festive seasons of Pongal and Sankranti. Despite this, the film is expected to maintain its stronghold until mid-January, with little resistance in most regions. The real test will come once the wave of new releases hits the theatres around Sankranthi and Pongal, but for now, Allu Arjun and his team are enjoying the humungous success.
Apart from Allu Arjun, the film also stars Rashmika Mandanna and Fahadh Faasil in important roles. Produced by Mythri Movie Makers, Sukumar Writings, and Muttamsetty Media with a lavish budget, Pushpa 2 is a glowing example of a regional production crossing boundaries to become a pan-India hit.
