This achievement underscores the massive anticipation surrounding the film, which promises to deliver yet another unforgettable cinematic experience.
Advance Booking Bonanza: A New Milestone for Indian Cinema
The numbers speak volumes. Pushpa 2: The Rule has sold over 12 lakh tickets on BookMyShow, making it the fastest film to achieve this feat. With advance bookings alone raking in a staggering ₹52.74 crore—₹35.17 crore from India and ₹17.57 crore globally—the film has already cemented its place as a box office phenomenon.
Major cinema chains are gearing up for the frenzy, scheduling over 20 daily shows for the film. Industry experts predict that these numbers will only climb as the release date approaches. The opening day collections are estimated to hit a record-breaking ₹250 crore, potentially setting a new benchmark for Indian cinema.
Star Power and Unmatched Hype
Adding to the excitement, Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna have been making waves during their promotional tour. At a recent Mumbai press event, the duo showcased their undeniable chemistry and electrified fans with their dance moves to Angaaron, a song from the upcoming film. Dressed in sleek black outfits, their performance has taken the internet by storm, amplifying the already sky-high anticipation.
