**Mumbai, India** – Allu Arjun’s *Pushpa 2: The Rule* continues its phenomenal box office run, defying expectations and leaving a significant mark on the Indian film industry. Even in its fourth week, the Telugu-language film raked in ₹37.25 crore (approximately $4.5 million USD) in India alone, significantly outperforming other recent releases like *Baby John*, *Marco*, and *Max*. This weekend haul surpasses the combined weekend collections of these films, highlighting the film’s enduring popularity.
The dubbed Hindi version of *Pushpa 2* has been a particularly remarkable success, becoming the first Hindi film to cross ₹100 crore (approximately $12 million USD) in its third week. This achievement has sparked introspection within the Hindi film industry, acknowledging the film’s unexpected dominance.
Globally, *Pushpa 2* has amassed over ₹1719.5 crore (approximately $208 million USD) at the end of its third week and is nearing the ₹1800 crore mark. With no major releases anticipated until the Pongal and Sankranti festivals in early January, the film’s strong performance is expected to continue. The film’s success has even sparked discussions about wider releases for other South Indian films, like *Marco*, which has seen strong regional performance.
Directed by Sukumar and featuring a star-studded cast including Rashmika Mandanna, Fahadh Faasil, and Sreeleela, *Pushpa 2* has overcome initial controversies surrounding its premiere to achieve unprecedented box office success. Its continued dominance in the market underscores the film’s widespread appeal and powerful impact on the landscape of Indian cinema.
