Massive 175 Crore Collection on the first day: Pushpa 2 has set an Unachievable target for Indian cinema
Pushpa the Rule was released worldwide on December 5th. It follows the events of the previous part of the blockbuster of 2021, “Pushpa-The Rise,” Directed by Bandreddi Sukumar and Featuring Allu Arjun as Pushpa Raj. There is no doubt the movie will be a super hit of all time because of the engagement we have seen in the trailer, with massive “12 crores” Views, and a massive target of ₹175 crores of collection on opening day.

Why the Hype Was Real
It started from Bahubali maybe before that and continuing till now. The massive pre-release buzz around Pushpa 2 can be attributed to several factors:
- Carryover Success from the First Installment:
Pushpa: The Rise (2021) introduced audiences to the rugged yet charismatic world of Pushpa Raj, a sandalwood smuggler who captured hearts across the globe. With its catchy music, iconic dialogues (“Thaggedhe Le”), and Allu Arjun’s raw appeal, the film became a cultural phenomenon, especially in non-Telugu-speaking markets. - National Award Recognition:
Allu Arjun’s win for Best Actor at the National Film Awards added a layer of prestige, elevating expectations for the sequel. Fans eagerly awaited his return to the big screen, where he promised to deliver another masterclass in performance. - Aggressive Marketing and Pan-India Appeal:
The makers left no stone unturned, releasing the movie in multiple languages (Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam) to ensure a pan-Indian reach. The immersive trailers, high-energy songs, and captivating promotions created a frenzy among fans. - Other Actors’ Contribution for the Hype
South Indian movies earn a lot compared to other Indian films because of the hype. But this time the reason for the hype is not only for Allu Arjun but also for Rashmika Mandanna and Fahadh Faasil. After the success of Vikram(with a major but short part) and Aavesham(with the gangster vibe) everyone is excited about the comeback of “SP Bhanwar Singh Shekhawat” in the trailer. Telling about Rashmika Mandanna, she has achieved quite a lot in Indian cinema.
What Makes Pushpa 2 Special?
- High-Octane Action:
Director Sukumar has scaled up the action sequences, with a bigger budget allowing for grander sets, intense stunts, and a gripping narrative that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. - Iconic Performances:
Allu Arjun steals the show with his nuanced portrayal of Pushpa, while Rashmika Mandanna as Srivalli and Fahadh Faasil as the antagonist provide strong supporting performances. - Music and Visuals:
Devi Sri Prasad’s electrifying soundtrack, combined with stunning visuals, adds to the overall cinematic experience. The dance number “Oo Antava” has already gone viral, repeating the magic of the first film’s music.
Pushpa 2 has broken all the records of Indian cinema by superseding RRR ( collection of 133 crore). And Bahubali 2 (collection of 121 crores)
So It has the potential to surpass the highest-grossing movie Dangal with a revenue of 2000 crore+. This might be a big statement but after watching the day 1 collection we can say that It isn’t impossible.
Apart from the domestic market, Pushpa 2 performed exceptionally well internationally, especially in the Middle East and the US. With its record-breaking start, the film is poised to dominate the box office in the days to come.
