Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2: The Rule has set the box office on fire with record-breaking collections on its first day. The film, which was released amidst massive expectations, has received a blockbuster response, surpassing initial projections. In the Telugu states, it is expected to earn over 60 crore rupees in share and 100 crore rupees in gross. Despite some show cancellations due to local issues and a few censor challenges overseas, the movie's performance has exceeded expectations.

The film is now on track to set an all-time industry record, with trade experts predicting a first-day collection of around 340 crore rupees, driven by massive advance bookings. For comparison, Devara, starring NTR, earned 390 crore rupees during its entire run. With the current momentum, Pushpa 2 could surpass Devara's total collections in a matter of days, with gross earnings potentially reaching 700 crore rupees by the weekend.
