Pushpa 2: The Rule worldwide box office
The official X (formerly Twitter) page of Pushpa re-tweeted a post by Idebrain that read, “ ₹1000 crores world wide gross accomplished by #Pushpa2 in just 6 days! Another all time record!!” The film reached the ₹922 crore gross mark within 5 days of release, becoming the first Indian film to achieve this record.
For context, Baahubali 2: The Conclusion held the record for the first Indian film to cross the ₹1000 crore mark in just 10 days.

As the film soon enters its second week, how it’ll hold up remains to be seen.
According to Sacnilk.com, Pushpa 2: The Rule has collected around ₹645.95 crore net in India so far.
Pushpa 2: The Rule producers threatened
According to ANI, Rajput leader Raj Shekhawat threatened the producer of Pushpa 2: The Rule on Sunday over the alleged insult of Kshatriyas. In a post on X, he demanded the producers remove the usage of the word ‘Shekawat’, claiming that the film ‘insults’ Kshatriyas.
“The movie has done grave insult to Kshatriyas. The Shekhawat community has been presented in a poor light,” he reportedly said in a video, adding, “The makers of the movie should remove the continuous use of Shekhawat word from the movie, or else, the Karni Sena will thrash them inside their house and will go to any limits as required.”
Fahadh plays a police officer named Bhanwar Singh Shekawat in the film. A red sanders smuggler, Pushpa Raj, played by Arjun, constantly bests him. The film picks up where the 2021 film Pushpa: The Rise left off with Bhanwar vowing to bring Pushpa down by any means.
