Pushpa 2 has emerged as one of the most significant successes in Indian cinema, shattering numerous records. Recently, Sukumar’s film featuring Allu Arjun has grossed over Rs 1500 crore and continues to demonstrate robust performance in theaters globally. In international markets, Pushpa 2 is approaching the $30 million threshold, with expectations to reach this figure by the week's end.
Here’s a detailed report on the film’s overseas earnings:
Pushpa 2 overseas box office | Collections in USD |
North America | $14.3 million |
UK & Ireland | $2.3 Million |
Australia | $2.62 Million |
New Zealand | $446K |
Germany | $261K |
UAE & Rest of GCC | $5.4 Million |
Singapore | $476K |
Malaysia | $580K |
Sri-Lanka | $156K |
Rest of The Europe & World | $1.5 Million |
Total | 29.3 million approx |
In the United States, Pushpa 2 has accumulated $14.2 million thus far, establishing itself as the highest-grossing Telugu film not helmed by SS Rajamouli. The film must exceed $16 million in the US to secure its position in the safe zone. In the UK and Ireland, it has generated $2.2 million, marking another milestone for Telugu cinema.
In Australia, the film has achieved an impressive gross of $2.7 million. Across the Middle East, Pushpa 2 has earned $5.4 million, again the highest for a non-Rajamouli Telugu film. In Europe, the film has so far garnered $1.5 million.
These figures are approximate and are subject to ongoing updates. Achieving $30 million in overseas markets is a remarkable accomplishment, underscoring the expanding reach of Telugu cinema on the international stage.
However, the true triumph is evident in the northern regions of India, where Pushpa 2 has become the highest-grossing Hindi film, surpassing Rs 640 crore. In the Telugu states, the film has exceeded Rs 200 crore but requires an additional Rs 10 crore to enter the profit zone.
In Telangana, Pushpa 2 is already profitable and continues to perform admirably at the box office, although occupancy rates have seen a decline. The film's earnings could have been higher if not for the elevated ticket prices in Telugu states and abroad. Nevertheless, ticket prices in various regions remain elevated.
Furthermore, Allu Arjun’s involvement in the Sandhya Theater stampede incident has inadvertently increased publicity for the film. The controversy and scrutiny surrounding the event have personally affected Allu Arjun. He is currently attending a meeting with Hyderabad police regarding his bail application, and it remains to be seen how this situation will develop in the days ahead.
