PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE (Hindi) had an outstanding New Years Day as it collected 8.75 crore nett and became the first film in history to collect 700 crore nett. The collections of the film so far are 704 crore nett and there is more to come. The growth is much better on New Years Day as compared to Christmas Day last week.

The fourth week will now go over the 50 crore nett which is actually more impressive than the 700 crore nett. A film hitting 50 crore nett in week four is pretty much unbelievable and unimaginable and here it cant be said that the film has had open field with no films releasing as MUFASA: THE LION KING and BABY JOHN did release.

The fourth week has only seen two films STREE 2 and JAWAN get over 30 crore nett and that tells how huge this 50 crore nett number is. It will be interesting to see where the film goes from here as the film has broken more or less every record in the book till date and with a strong holiday period, you would expect some exhaustion. But so far, the film has shown no signs of that.

The collections of PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE (Hindi) till date are as follows.

Friday - 6,25,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 9,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 12,00,00,000 apprx

Monday - 5,25,00,000 apprx

Tuesday - 5,75,00,000 apprx

Wednesday - 8,75,00,000 apprx

---------------------------------------------

PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE (Hindi) showed growth on its fourth Tuesday and its pretty much the same trend as last week and New Years Day should also show some growth though maybe less than the last week. The film will hit the 700 crore nett today which will mean in basically four weeks as the first week was extended and had eight days.

PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE is the first film to hit 600 crore nett and now will also become the first film to hit 700 crore nett and it remains to be seen if the film can hit the 750 crore nett mark. The footfalls of the film in Hindi are heading for 4 crore plus which is the third best this century after GADAR (2001) and BAAHUBALI 2: THE CONLCUSION (2017) which also makes it the third biggest HIT this century.

The film is also now the highest grosser in India ever in terms of nett collections as it goes past the 1100 crore mark and the numbers of BAAHUBALI 2: THE CONLCUSION. There are tax changes since the time of BAAHUBALI 2: THE CONLCUSION and it has a little more to go in terms of gross numbers but it should get there eventually by the end of its run.

The fourth week of the film is heading for a total of around 50 crore nett and before this, only two films have crossed 30 crore nett in the fourth week.

The collections of PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE (Hindi) till date are as follows.

Friday - 6,25,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 9,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 12,00,00,000 apprx

Monday - 5,25,00,000 apprx

Tuesday - 5,75,00,000 apprx

PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE (Hindi) saw another huge Monday hold pretty much as last week as it collected 5.25 crore nett which is a drop of a little over 15% from Friday. Last week saw holidays for the Christmas period and this week it is New Year. So, generally all films out there are holding up better than they would on a normal Friday.

This means outstanding business for PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE for the next two days when it will become the first film to hit the 700 crore nett mark. The film will probably see a drop post the New Year as the holiday period starts to end but it will be Monday when its all back to normal and it the collection on Monday will determine how much the film can add in January.

The film has smashed all records and although it does not matter much in the bigger picture, the minor downside is the business in Delhi/UP. The film has just crossed the numbers of JAWAN in Delhi/UP and is 10 crore behind GADAR 2 and a huge 25 crore nett behind STREE 2. Its likely that the film will will stay around 10 crore nett behind STREE 2 and going by other circuits, it should be 20-25 crore nett more.

This means a shortfall of 30-35 crore nett in this circuit and its hard to tell but there will be some reason. If compared to STREE 2, the problem is Delhi NCR area and the big centres of UP like Lucknow, Kanpur, Dehradun and Meerut which have bigger multiplexes. A centre like Agra which would be classed as bigger than Dehradun and Meerut is far better than STREE 2 but here there is no presence of the bigger chains. The other centres in UP are also better for PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE but that shortfall from Delhi NCR and four centres of UP mentioned above will not be covered. In Delhi city alone STREE 2 crossed 50 crore nett and here PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE is unlikely to do 40 crore nett.

The collections of PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE (Hindi) till date are as follows.

Friday - 6,25,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 9,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 12,00,00,000 apprx

Monday - 5,25,00,000 apprx

PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE (Hindi) recorded the highest fourth weekend on record with collections of 27 crore nett which is almost as much as the fourth WEEK record figure of STREE 2 which was 31.50 crore nett. The film has a huge total of 685 crore nett up on the board after its fourth weekend and it should hit the 700 crore nett mark in the next 3-4 days.

The growth this weekend came on Sunday when the film went back into double digits with mass circuits showing huge gains. The film is already 100 crore nett more than the previous biggest grosser STREE 2 which had final business of 580 crore nett. Here with PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE, its about how further it pushes the record. The target now looks 750 crore nett for the film and that will depend on what levels come in week four.

The film became the record grosser in East Punjab over the weekend adding to Mumbai, Rajasthan, CP Berar, CI, Bihar and Odisha. The circuits which are left are Delhi/UP, West Bengal and Assam and its unlikely that any these three will hit record levels as it has good distances to cover which do not look possible on the present trajectory.

The collections of PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE (Hindi) till date are as follows.

Friday - 10,50,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 18,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 23,75,00,000 apprx

Monday - 9,25,00,000 apprx

Tuesday - 10,25,00,000 apprx

Wednesday - 13,75,00,000 apprx

Thursday - 7,25,00,000 apprx

Friday - 6,25,00,000 apprx

Saturday - 9,00,00,000 apprx

Sunday - 12,00,00,000 apprx

PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE collected 9 crore nett apprx on it fourth Saturday which now takes its total to around 674 crore nett. The growth could have been better but its coming out of holiday week and there will be some exhaustion considering the huge run till date. The film is comfortably going to cross the 700 crore nett mark. Despite the growth being less than it should on Saturday for a holdover release, the film continues with record collections.

MUFASA: THE LION KING saw the best growth on Saturday as it also collected in the 9 crore nett range. MUFASA: THE LION KING has collected 75 crore nett so far in nine days and its should go past the 100 crore nett mark. The film is being driven by South India, a circuit like Tamil Nadu has grossed 13 crore nett so far which is much more than Delhi/UP which is yet to reach 10 crore nett.

BABY JOHN is poor as it collected 3.75 crore nett on Saturday which takes the film to 22 crore nett apprx in its four days. The growth generally was limited on Saturday but this film still under performed as it grew less than the other films out there. There is total rejection and it will fizzle out over the weekdays.

THE SABARMATI REPORT has done decent business and has collected 32 crore nett till date and is playing at minimal cinemas now. The film got the luck of draw as it was bought into notice of the public by major political people including the Prime Minister of India. The film saw a nice little after this happened and did some business even post PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE's release.

PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE (Hindi) starts the fourth week with another record as it has the highest fourth Friday of all time though the trend of the film in terms of Thu - Fri has seen a drop despite no release this week. The film has collected a huge 6.25 crore nett which now takes the film to almost 665 crore nett in 23 days.

PUSHPA 2 - THE RULE seems to heading for the 700 crore nett mark on New Years Day as its sure to be another record week for the film with the holiday factor kicking in over the weekdays. The lifetime will probably be determined what happens after this holiday period as will the film continue with this crazy trajectory or does it see a drop at some point post the holiday period.

The records have fallen for every week and weekend till date and they will continue this week but the records will get tougher to come by after this week as consumption has been so much. The plus is there is no major competition out there for many weeks and as has been seen before, when this happens the film that has been accepted by the audience continues to run until it faces real competition.

The film stands the third biggest film in its home market of Nizam/Andhra at the moment behind RRR and BAAHUBALI 2: THE CONLCUSION. It will not beat RRR but will probably go above BAAHUBALI 2: THE CONLCUSION to become the second highest Telugu grosser ever.
