As Predicted by YouSay,  Prabhas’s ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ Breaks ₹1000 Crore Barrier in Just 15 Days

Rebel star Prabhas, directed by Nag Ashwin, has unleashed a box office storm with ‘Kalki 2898 AD‘. Although it was released just 15 days ago, the film’s earnings continue to soar, breaking new global records. The excitement around Prabhas’s latest film is palpable. Recently, Vyjayanthi Movies, the production company, officially announced that ‘Kalki’ has surpassed the ₹1000 crore mark. This raises questions about which other films have achieved this milestone and how ‘Kalki’ compares to them. We will explore these aspects in this special report.

How much did the collections amount to in 15 days?

The film ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ has been successfully running in theaters for 15 days. The production company Vyjayanthi Movies has officially announced the collections so far. The Kalki movie has grossed over ₹1000 crores in these 15 days. A special poster was released on this occasion, showcasing Prabhas in a Karna avatar targeting the ₹1000 crore mark. This poster is currently captivating netizens. Fans are reiterating Prabhas’s prowess once again.

Prabhas, the Unique South Hero

Through ‘Kalki 2898 AD’, hero Prabhas has set a record. He is the only South Indian hero to have joined the ₹1000 crore club twice. Prabhas first joined this club with ‘Baahubali 2’. Although it was anticipated that he would touch ₹1000 crores again with ‘Salaar’, it stalled around ₹705–715 crores. However, with Kalki, he has achieved this feat for the second time. With collections exceeding ₹1000 crores, he has proven himself unstoppable at the box office, thereby equalling Bollywood’s Shahrukh Khan’s record. Currently, these two stars are the only ones to have placed their films in the ₹1000 crore club twice, with Shahrukh doing so with ‘Jawan’ and ‘Pathaan’.

Soon Into the Top-3

With the latest collections, Kalki has placed seventh in the list of films with the highest gross in Indian cinema history. ‘Dangal’, starring Aamir Khan, continues to lead with ₹2,023 crores. Prabhas’s own ‘Baahubali 2’ holds second place with ₹1,810 crores. ‘RRR’ with ₹1,387 crores, ‘KGF 2’ with ₹1,200–1,250 crores, ‘Jawan’ with ₹1,148 crores, and ‘Pathaan’ with ₹1,050 crores follow in subsequent positions. However, with Kalki joining the ₹1000 crore club within just two weeks, it is poised to break more records in the coming days and easily move into the third position, giving a tough time to the films currently in third, fourth, and fifth places.

How Much Did Day 1 Collections Bring In?

All eyes are currently on the Day 1 collections of the ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ movie. Vyjayanthi Movies, the production company, has officially announced the first day’s earnings. ‘Kalki’ grossed ₹191.5 crores worldwide on its first day. A special poster was also released with the caption ‘Let’s Celebrate Cinema’. Initially, trade circles predicted that Kalki would gross over ₹200 crores on its first day. However, the film narrowly missed the ₹200 crore mark.

How Much Did the First Weekend Yield?

Directed by Nag Ashwin and starring Prabhas, the movie ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ grossed ₹555 crores worldwide in its first weekend. A special poster featuring major stars such as Amitabh Bachchan and Deepika Padukone, along with the lead, was posted last week by the production company. The caption read, ‘Dominating the global box office with no signs of slowing down’.
