Fri Dec 13 15:00:00 UTC 2024: ## Pushpa 2: The Rule on Track to Topple Box Office Giants KGF 2 and RRR

**HYDERABAD, INDIA** – Allu Arjun’s *Pushpa: The Rule* continues its box office domination, shattering records in its second week. The action sequel, directed by Sukumar, has already surpassed the lifetime domestic earnings of *Kalki 2898 AD* and *Jawan*, and is poised to overtake *KGF: Chapter 2* and *RRR* within days.

Day eight saw the film rake in approximately ₹38 crore (approximately $4.6 million USD) across India, a 12% dip from the previous day but still a significant figure. Cumulative domestic collections now stand at a staggering ₹726 crore (approximately $88 million USD). Notably, the Hindi dubbed version continues to outperform the original Telugu version, widening the gap between the two each day. The Hindi version alone crossed ₹400 crore (approximately $48 million USD) in just one week.

Globally, *Pushpa 2* has already amassed ₹1067 crore (approximately $129 million USD) in seven days, with the eight-day figure expected to exceed ₹1105 crore (approximately $134 million USD) once international numbers are finalized. This puts the film within approximately ₹100 crore (approximately $12 million USD) of surpassing both *KGF: Chapter 2* and *RRR*’s lifetime earnings, a milestone projected to be reached this weekend.

While *Dangal* remains the highest-grossing Indian film, *Pushpa 2* is aiming to challenge *Baahubali 2: The Conclusion*’s global record of over ₹1700 crore (approximately $206 million USD). With its momentum and widespread appeal, *Pushpa 2* is proving to be a major force in the Indian film industry. A sequel, *Pushpa 3: The Rampage*, is already in the works.
