As of Wednesday, the Prashanth Neel directorial made its way into the Rs 500 crore club overseas. The film managed to breach the Rs 500 crore threshold in only six days of its release. With the global box office success of the film, Prabhas has now entered the revered Rs 500 crore club third time after his first two global blockbusters, Baahubali and Baahubali 2.

Despite Salaar's triumphant start, the numbers have been witnessing a dip after the first weekend. To increase footfall, production banner Hombale Films has decided to slash the ticket prices in national theatre chains. With this, the makers hope to maintain the sale of tickets in the coming days.

Talking about the film, Salaar is an adaptation of Prashanth's 2014 Kannada film Ugramm, and centres on the tale of two childhood friends. The film revolves around Prithviraj Sukumaran as Varadharaja Mannar and Prabhas as Deva. The film features Bobby Simha, Sriya Reddy, Jagapathi Babu, and others as well in significant roles.
