The Yash-fronted action drama film has broken several records at the domestic box office, even though it couldn't go past "RRR" and "Baahubali 2". ## The Prashanth Neel-directed was released on over 10000 screens worldwide, including approx. 7000 screens in India. The craze for this particular movie is such that theater owners are arranging midnight shows to meet the demand with supply and still people are finding it tough to get tickets, especially in the North belts, where the craze for this is sky-high. ## "KGF: Chapter 2" was anticipated to break "RRR's" opening day record at the domestic box office, however, it fell short to reach there as SS Rajamouli's period action drama is still playing in theaters on a significant number of screens all over India. Had "RRR" not playing in theaters currently, "KGF 2" would have easily become the biggest opener in India, beating both "RRR" and "Baahubali 2". Nonetheless, the Kannada biggie still outscored both the movies in some regions, including Hindi. ## Comparing the opening day biz of "KGF 2", "RRR" and "Baahubali 2" - the latest movie has grossed 134.5 crores (3rd biggest) against "RRR's" 156 crores (all-time highest) and BB2's 152 crores (2nd highest) at the domestic box office on the first day.

Well, the cat is out of the hat, and by surpassing all the expectations, "KGF 2" has become the biggest opener ever in Hindi. ## The film scored 64 crores gross in Hindi on an opening day. In comparison, "Baahubali 2" had scored 52 crores gross on the first day while "RRR" could manage only 23.68 crores. The postponement of Shahid Kapoor's "Jersey" also helped "KGF 2" to take the monster opening as it got extra screens. The other versions (Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam) of "KGF 2" scored approx. 74 crores gross against 132 crores of "RRR" and "Baahubali 2's" 101 crores gross. ## RRR Vs Baahubali 2 Vs KGF 2 State Wise Opening Day Gross Collection ComparisonMovieKarnatakaAPTGTamil NaduKeralaRest Of IndiaDay TotalRRR₹ 14.5 Cr₹ 102.5 Cr₹ 10 Cr₹ 4 Cr₹ 25 Cr₹ 156 CrBaahubali 2 The Conclusion₹ 19.5 Cr₹ 57 Cr₹ 9.25 Cr₹ 5.45 Cr₹ 60.8 Cr₹ 152 CrKGF: Chapter 2₹ 26.40 Cr₹ 31.00 Cr₹ 8.2 Cr₹ 7.4 Cr₹ 61.5 Cr₹ 134.5 Cr## Despite not becoming the biggest Indian opener, "KGF 2" has found a place in the heart of the Indians and emerged as the biggest Kannada opener.

Hyderabad, April 9 - SS Rajamouli's "RRR" has become a global sensation. Keeping its extraordinary box office numbers aside, the period action drama film, touted as a cinematic masterpiece, is being compared with Marvel movies that have always provided larger-than-life cinema experiences to global audiences. ## The title of "RRR" is itself an interesting one and catching a lot of attention.

They started making designs of the RRR and I asked the distributor and they said it's very easy on the tongue, let's go ahead and do it".## Frankly speaking, "RRR" is one of the most likable Indian movie titles in recent times. It sounds nice to call it, "Aar Aar Aar" or "Triple Aar". More importantly, the "RRR" trio is ruling the box office and bringing smiles back to the Indian film industry. It is nearing a gigantic 1000 crores worldwide gross, which will make it only the third Indian movie to this landmark box office figure. ## Stay tuned...
