**Mumbai, India** – The dubbed Hindi version of the Telugu action thriller *Pushpa: The Rule* has achieved a historic milestone, becoming the first Hindi film to gross over ₹700 crore at the Indian box office. Film trade analyst Taran Adarsh announced the achievement on X (formerly Twitter), highlighting the film’s “phenomenal trending” and predicting continued success through the upcoming holiday season.
The film, starring Allu Arjun, Rashmika Mandanna, and Fahadh Faasil, currently stands at ₹704.25 crore. This achievement builds upon a legacy of box office breakthroughs, starting with Aamir Khan’s *Ghajini* in 2008, which first crossed ₹100 crore. Subsequent milestones included *3 Idiots* (₹200 crore), *PK* (₹300 crore), *Baahubali 2: The Conclusion* (₹500 crore), and *Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2* (₹600 crore). Each film pushed the boundaries of Hindi cinema’s domestic box office earnings, culminating in *Pushpa 2’s* record-breaking ₹700 crore achievement. The film’s success further underscores the growing popularity of dubbed South Indian films in the Hindi-speaking market.
