Hindi Version Achieves Milestone Figures
The Hindi version of the film set a new benchmark, with early projections pointing to over Rs. 70 crore net on Saturday.

Reports suggest Pushpa 2 may collect Rs. 73-75 crore net, pushing its Hindi total to an impressive Rs. 200 crore within three days. By the end of its first weekend, the Hindi version alone is expected to surpass Rs. 270 crore net.
Strong Regional Performance Across States
Regionally, Pushpa 2 continued its dominance, particularly in Telugu-speaking states, with a Saturday gross of Rs.30-35 crore. Tamil Nadu’s collections remained robust at Rs. 7.5 crore net and Rs. 10.5 crore gross. While Kerala saw a slight dip to Rs. 2.15 crore gross, Karnataka reported a sharp increase, with collections nearing Rs. 11 crore gross.
Total Domestic Gross Soars Beyond ₹455 Crore
The film’s cumulative gross in India has already surpassed Rs. 455 crore. It began its box office journey with Rs.164.25 crore gross on Thursday, followed by a slight dip to Rs. 93.8 crore on Friday. With projections indicating a first-weekend gross exceeding Rs. 600 crore, Pushpa 2: The Rule is on track to set a new industry standard.
With Sunday’s collections yet to be accounted for, the film is poised to create history with unmatched box office figures, solidifying its place as a cinematic phenomenon.
