Highest-Grossing Indian Film of 2024

In just three days of its release, Kalki 2898 AD has become the highest-grossing Indian film of 2024. Earlier, this position was held by Teja Sajja’s Telugu film Hanu-Man, which had collected Rs 350 crore worldwide.

Third-Highest Opening for an Indian Film Ever and Second-Biggest Prabhas Opener

Kalki 2898 AD scored the third-highest opening for an Indian film ever, with a global opening of Rs 191.5 crore. It surpassed the opening day records of blockbusters like KGF 2, which collected Rs 159 crore worldwide on day one, and Jawan, which minted Rs 129.10 crore worldwide on day one. However, RRR and Baahubali 2 still hold the top spots, with Rs 223 crore and Rs 217 crore on day one worldwide, respectively. Since Baahubali 2 also starred Prabhas, Kalki 2898 AD becomes Prabhas’ second-biggest opener.

Tollywood’s Sixth Highest-Grossing Film to Date

Kalki 2898 AD has become Tollywood’s sixth highest-grossing film to date, replacing Allu Arjun’s Pushpa: The Rise. Prabhas’ four films, including Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire, Baahubali: The Beginning, and Saaho, occupy the top five positions, with Jr NTR and Ram Charan’s RRR holding the second spot.

Directed by Nag Ashwin, Kalki 2898 AD also stars Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone and Kamal Haasan in the lead roles.
