"Despite record-breaking early performance, Pushpa 2 faces a slowdown in earnings, overshadowed by Game Changer."
January 16, 2025: Despite setting records early on, Pushpa 2: The Rule experiences a significant slowdown in earnings, facing tough competition from Ram Charan’s Game Changer.
Pushpa 2 Slows Down After Strong Start
Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2: The Rule began its theatrical run with a bang, smashing records and becoming one of the highest-grossing Indian films in history. However, 42 days after its release, the film’s momentum has noticeably slowed. According to Sacnilk, the movie earned ₹1 crore on January 16, a 50% drop from its performance on the previous Wednesday.
Worldwide Earnings Update
Pushpa 2 has reportedly grossed ₹1,728.25 crore worldwide, solidifying its status as an industry hit. Mythri Movie Makers previously announced that the film crossed ₹1,831 crore within its first 32 days. Despite these milestones, the film's daily collections have dwindled, and its once-dominant hold on the box office is waning.
Competition from Game Changer
The release of Ram Charan’s Game Changer has posed stiff competition for Pushpa 2. The political drama grossed ₹106.34 crore within just five days, drawing attention away from the Allu Arjun starrer. While Pushpa 2 initially dominated December’s box office, it has struggled to maintain its reign in the face of new releases.
