We all expected that Bahubali 2 would do well but it has even performed beyond all our expectations by becoming the first Indian movie to cross Rs. 100 Crore Nett Collections on Day one at the box-office.
According to boxofficeindia.com, "The Hindi version is on course to set records in every Hindi belt circuit. The first day looks to be closing in the 35-40 crore nett range for the Hindi version. It is a non holiday record and in the morning it could end up being an all time record despite not releasing in 12-15% of the market. The film is blazing a trail in Nizam / Andhra but that was expected. Tamil Nadu is the weakest region but still will put huge numbers. The early breakdown is as follows:
Hindi Markets - 35,00,00,000 (includes all versions released in Mumbai, North, Central and Eastern India)
Nizam / Andhra - 45,00,00,000
Tamil Nadu - 14,00,00,000
Karnataka - 10,00,00,000
Kerala - 4,00,00,000
GRAND TOTAL - 1,08,00,00,000"
The collections are expected to be even higher on Saturday Sunday and Monday.
