The Prabhas-starrer Salaar has been playing in theatres for approximately two weeks now, and while the film opened to a whopping Rs 90 crore nett in India, its box office collections started to dip soon after. Salaar made the most of the holiday season, but was also competing against the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Dunki. On its second Wednesday, the film managed to bring in Rs 5.25 crore in India, taking its nett domestic box office total to Rs 373.57 crore.

Also starring Prithviraj Sukumaran, Tinnu Anand, Jagapathi Babu and Sriya Reddy in significant roles, Salaar is still experiencing 17.97% occupancy in the Telugu market.

Salaar marks a big comeback for Prabhas. The actor has starred in many big-budget projects since the Baahubali films, but they fell way short of the high benchmark that he’d set for himself. Saaho, Radhe Shyam and Adipurush flopped at the box office, and while Prabhas has many other films in the pipeline, the Prashanth Neel film was being seen as a test of Prabhas’ stardom. After Salaar Part 1, he will be seen in the sequel of the film which is scheduled to release in 2025. He is also set to star in Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2898 AD, Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Spirit, and director Maruthi’s next.

In a chat with India Today, Prabhas shared that the story of Salaar Part 2 is ready. “The story is already ready, and we are going to start very soon, aiming to deliver the film as soon as possible for the audiences. I am aware that many of my fans are eagerly waiting for its release. We will soon unveil the details of Salaar Part 2,” he said.
