The craze of Allu Arjun’s ‘Pushpa 2’ is increasing like wildfire. Three years ago, Allu had described himself as fire, but this time he is coming back as ‘Wild Fire’. He seems to be proving the name he has given himself right. There are still two days left for the release of the film. Its advance booking is going on in full swing from now on. Meanwhile, ‘Pushpa 2’ has left behind films like Baahubali, KGF 2 and RRR in terms of ticket sales.
By around 2 pm on Tuesday afternoon, ‘Pushpa 2’ had earned Rs 37.59 crore at the domestic box office from advance booking. The thing to note is that these figures are only for the first day of booking. According to SACNILC, during this period, 12 lakh 12 thousand 568 tickets of the film have been booked for 22 thousand 215 shows. The craze of the film is being seen most in Telugu. Tickets worth more than Rs 18 crore have been booked there for the film. Tickets worth more than Rs 12 crore have been sold for the Hindi version.
