Pushpa 2 vs Baahubali 2 vs KGF 2: Day wise all India box office collection comparison
With its phenomenal momentum, all eyes are now on how high Pushpa 2 can rise—could it possibly dethrone Baahubali 2 to claim the crown as the highest-grossing film of all time?
UPDATE 2 (20/12): Pushpa 2 grossed Rs. 301 crore in its second week, taking its total gross to Rs. 1110 crore, just Rs. 237 crore separating from Baahubali 2. It is not only maintaining its lead of 55 per cent over KGF 2, but bettered it to 60 per cent in the last four days. Expect this to go further up in the third weekend, possibly 80 per cent. At this pace, Pushpa 2 overtaking Baahubali 2 is an inevitability, not a possibility. We can now call it: Pushpa 2 will surpass Baahubali 2 to become the highest-grossing film of all time in India. The record could fall as early as 30th December.
UPDATE 1 (16/12): Pushpa 2 grossed Rs. 197.50 crore in its second weekend, which propelled its total gross to over Rs. 1000 crore mark. As was expected, the second weekend extended its lead over KGF 2, with the last three days collecting 55 per cent higher than KGF 2. KGF 2 added roughly Rs. 250 crore to its total after the second weekend. If Pushpa 2 keeps up this 55 per cent lead, we are looking at Rs. 1395 crore final, which would put it Rs. 50 crore ahead of Baahubali 2. Since Pushpa is holding better than KGF 2 and there is an extended holiday period ahead, there is a possibility of it doing even better. As things stand today, Pushparaaj is at the gates of Mahismati.
ORIGINAL write-up: Since its release seven days ago, Pushpa 2 has been an unstoppable juggernaut, shattering records left, right and centre. Starring Allu Arjun, the film has emerged as the fastest earner in the history of Indian cinema, amassing nearly Rs. 800 crore in its first seven days. With its phenomenal momentum, all eyes are now on how high Pushpa 2 can rise—could it possibly dethrone Baahubali 2 to claim the crown as the highest-grossing film of all time?
To keep track of things, here’s a comparison between Pushpa 2 and the current top two grossers at the Indian box office; Baahubali 2 and KGF Chapter 2.

Updated as of 27th December 2024
After seven days, Pushpa 2 is leading Baahubali 2 by more than a hundred crore and KGF 2 by nearly two hundred crore. Pushpa 2 has fallen behind Baahubali 2 in the daily collections, though it maintains its lead over KGF 2 by 25-30 per cent.
KGF 2 added Rs. 409 crore to its total after its first seven days. Theoretically, if Pushpa 2 manages to keep its 25-30 per cent lead, it will add Rs. 510-530 crore for a total of Rs. 1280-1300 crore. While this is an enormous figure, it still falls short of surpassing Baahubali 2's record. So to make things simple, Pushpa 2 needs to do better than that.
What’s going in its favour is that it will be enjoying an extended holiday period for Christmas and New Year in the fourth and fifth weeks. In comparison, KGF 2 had just three days of Eid boost in the fourth week. Also, the second weekend of KGF 2 appears weaker when compared to recent big-ticket films like Stree 2, Kalki 2898 AD, Gadar 2, Jawan and so on. This presents an opportunity for Pushpa 2 to widen its lead further.
This will be an interesting chase to watch. This page will be updated daily with collections and required commentary. Bookmark it and stay tuned.
