Kalki 2898 AD: Triumph at the Indian Box Office

Directed by Nag Ashwin and featuring a star-studded cast including Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, Disha Patani, and Kamal Haasan, Kalki 2898 AD has emerged as a box office juggernaut. In its momentous opening week, the film has amassed a staggering Rs. 441 crores at the Indian box office.

Outstanding Performance After Opening Weekend

Following a remarkable first weekend, Kalki 2898 AD continued its dominance throughout weekdays, maintaining its momentum with minimal drops. Over the three weekdays, it collected over Rs. 100 crores, a testament to its widespread acceptance among moviegoers.

Fourth Highest 7-Day Grosser in India

Kalki 2898 AD has ascended to the esteemed position of fourth highest-grossing film in India in its first seven days of release, trailing only Baahubali 2, KGF 2, and RRR. It currently holds a slight lead over Jawan by a margin of Rs. 2 crores. However, Jawan has surpassed Kalki 2898 AD at the international box office, a lead that is expected to widen with time.

Baahubali 2 Remains Undisputed Champion

Despite approaching a decade since its release, Baahubali 2 reigns supreme as the undisputed Box office leader. However, Pushpa 2 is poised to challenge this dominance later this year. In the years to come, numerous high-potential and blockbuster films are expected to emerge, potentially disrupting the current rankings.
