Stree 2, featuring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao, became the industry hit of Bollywood this year by surpassing SRK’s Jawan. But Stree 2’s record didn’t last long as the box office sensation Pushpa 2 zoomed past the lifetime collections of the horror comedy entertainer in just 15 days. The Hindi version collections of this Allu Arjun starrer now stand at Rs. 632.5 crores nett.
The Christmas festival is around the corner, and the holiday season will only boost the prospects further. Mass entertainer Baby John, presented by Atlee, is scheduled for release on December 25. However, going by the rage of Pushpa 2, the Varun Dhawan starrer will find it challenging to attract the audience.
Pushpa 2 became the second South Indian movie to achieve industry hit status in Hindi after the mighty Baahubali 2: The Conclusion. The box office juggernaut features Rashmika Mandanna, Fahadh Faasil, Rao Ramesh, Jagapathi Babu, Pavani Karanam, and others in pivotal roles.
