Baahubali 2: The Conclusion is turning out to be quite the mammoth at the box-office. The SS Rajamouli film was simply unstoppable on its opening weekend, beating Bollywood’s biggest money churners so far – Sultan and Dangal.
While Sultan and Dangal earned Rs 105.53 and Rs 107.01 Crore respectively in their first three days at the box-office, the Baahubali sequel cashed Rs 128 Crore at the end of day 3.
The film is also breaking records in Hollywood. According to reports, the film has already crossed worldwide collections of Rs 540 Crore (approximately) in its opening weekend. At US box office, Baahubali: The Conclusion stands at number three, after the latest Vin Diesel starrer Fast and the Furious 8 and a Latin film titled How To Be a Latin Lover, with a collection of Rs 65.65 Crore on opening weekend in the US alone.
The film starring Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, Anushka Shetty, Ramya Krishnan and Sathyaraj had reportedly opened on 9000 screens worldwide, with almost 6,500 screens in India.
Baahubali is creating history in Indian cinema and on a global scale too.
