Allu Arjun and Sukumar’s Pushpa 2 is up for release in 20 days from today and this is one of the highly expected films in the pan-Indian belt. While the massive stakes are on one side, there is a lot of anticipation on the box office target of the Allu Arjun starrer.
Thanks to the sequel advantage and the mass penetration of the first part in the mass Hindi belts, Pushpa 2 is expected to open big in the Hindi belt.

Thus far, the highest-grossing Telugu film in the Hindi belt is Baahubali 2 – Rs 511 crore nett followed by Kalki at Rs 295 crore nett.
The target for Pushpa 2 now will be to beat the Baahubali 2 tally, in order to validate all the mass penetration of the first part. In the worst-case scenario, Kalki’s near-300 target is also in the equation. RRR is 3rd with Rs 277 crore nett.

In any case, Pushpa 2 must be standing tall as one of the elite league outings from Telugu cinema at the Hindi belt so touching Rs 500 crore is more or less a must for this Allu Arjun starrer.
For that to happen, the forthcoming trailer on the 17th of this month must absolutely hit it out of the park. Only then can the buzz catch up prior to the release.
