Pushpa 2 Box Office Collection day 31: The Rule Continues Its Box Office Reign Despite Week 5 Challenges

Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2: The Rule remains a dominant force at the global box office, even as it enters its fifth week. With a staggering ₹1,800 crore in global collections, the film has set benchmarks in Indian cinema, overtaking Baahubali 2’s domestic record and becoming the fastest entrant into the ₹1,800 crore club. However, recent figures suggest a slight slowdown as it faces stiff competition from upcoming Sankranti and Pongal releases.

• Global Collections: ₹1,800 crore, second only to Dangal in the all-time rankings.

The Road Ahead: Challenges and Opportunities

Upcoming Competitors

As Pushpa 2 faces potential declines in Telugu markets due to Sankranti releases, films like:

• Unni Mukundan’s Marco

…are expected to challenge its dominance.

Sustained Momentum in Hindi Markets

Interestingly, the Hindi version of Pushpa 2 continues to perform well, with no major Hindi releases on the horizon. This gives the film an edge to retain audiences in non-Telugu-speaking regions.
