The highly anticipated film Pushpa 2: The Rule, starring Allu Arjun, is set to begin its advance booking in India on November 30. This sequel to the blockbuster Pushpa: The Rise has already made waves internationally, with impressive pre-sale numbers in the United States. As the excitement grows, Pushpa 2 is aiming to surpass the box office success of some of the biggest Indian films in recent years, including KGF: Chapter 2 and Jawan.
Pushpa: The Rule is not just another film in the crowded December release schedule; it is a film that has been eagerly awaited by fans ever since the success of the first part in 2021.
The original film became a huge hit due to its unique storyline, powerful performances, and Allu Arjun's remarkable portrayal of Pushpa Raj. This has set the stage for the sequel to be one of the biggest films in Indian cinema.
In terms of advance booking, Pushpa 2 is eyeing some big records. KGF: Chapter 2, starring Yash, set the benchmark for advance sales in India with a phenomenal Rs 40 crore on its opening day.
Jawan, featuring Shah Rukh Khan, followed closely with Rs 36 crore in advance sales, even without having seats blocked for early bookings.
However, Pushpa 2 is expected to break these records. The film is building up significant buzz, and early signs suggest that it could very well surpass these numbers and set a new record for advance bookings.
The excitement around Pushpa 2 is further fueled by the fact that it is set to have a solo release in December. Many other big films, such as Chhaava starring Vicky Kaushal, have been postponed, leaving the entire month open for Pushpa 2. This means there will be less competition, allowing the film to capture the full attention of audiences. As December approaches, the film’s buzz is only going to increase, further boosting its advance booking sales.
In North America, the film has already made a significant impact. Early reports show that the movie has earned over $1.80 million in opening day pre-sales, with the total overseas advance booking crossing $2 million. This makes Pushpa 2 one of the fastest films to achieve such high pre-sales, and with a week still to go before its release, the numbers are expected to rise even further.
