Prabhas's Kalki 2898 AD: Huge Sunday, Takes First Weekend BO to 500 Crore
"Kalki 2898 AD," starring Rebel Star Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, and Deepika Padukone, presented a plethora of opportunities by making Rs. 100 crores at the box office. After its release on June 27th, 2024, this movie saw a massive 32 percent rise on Sunday, grossing approximately Rs. 98 crores. After "Bahubali 2," "RRR," "KGF 2," and "Jawan," "Kalki 2898 AD" achieved the fifth highest ever four-day collection.
This Tollywood and Bollywood collaboration, directed by Nag Ashwin, created a sensational hit in the Indian Film Industry. Due to the T20 World Cup finals scheduled on Saturday, the movie saw subdued growth but completely took off on Sunday. With an extraordinary 50 percent growth in North India, Prabhas' impact earned Rs. 46 crore on the fourth day for the Hindi dubbed version.
People went crazy for "Kalki's" 25% increase in the Telugu states when a 10% increase is considered the best-case scenario for huge openings. "Kalki" was just 5% ahead of "Salaar" on the first day and rapidly grew to 11% on Sunday.
