Global Success
Globally, Pushpa 2 has crossed the ₹1,600 crore mark, securing its position as the third-highest-grossing Indian film. It follows Dangal (₹2,000 crore+) and Baahubali 2 (₹1,790 crore). With the ongoing holiday season between Christmas and New Year, trade analysts predict further growth in its collections.
Impact of the Hindi Version
The Hindi version of Pushpa 2 has played a pivotal role in its success. Its phenomenal performance is reportedly affecting the release schedules of Hindi films in northern states. Theater owners are reluctant to replace Pushpa 2 with new releases, sparking debates within the industry.
