Pushpa 2 made a spectacular debut at the box office, earning approximately Rs. 190 crore on its opening day in India. This impressive figure has dethroned the iconic Baahubali 2, which held the record for the highest first-day grosser in Indian cinema for over seven years. Anticipation surrounding Pushpa 2 was immense, and it successfully met those expectations, surpassing the previous record by nearly 50 percent.
This film marks the fifth time a movie has crossed the Rs. 100 crore mark on its first day in India, and it came tantalizingly close to reaching the Rs. 200 crore milestone. Had it been released on its originally scheduled date of August 15, it likely would have achieved that feat comfortably.The top fifteen highest first-day grossers at the Indian box office are as follows:
