Well, folks, looks like the much-hyped futuristic flick, Kalki 2898 AD, is not just flexing its muscles at the box office but breaking scales! Opening with a hefty Rs. 22.50 crores on a humdrum Thursday, the film has shown some serious staying power on its second day. Early bird estimates suggest Kalki 2898 AD has raked in between Rs. 19.50 crores to 20.50 crores on Friday, pushing its two-day loot to a cool Rs. 42.50 crores.
This celluloid spectacle is doing a bang-up job across both multiplexes and single screens, hinting at a potential marathon run in theatres. With a drop of less than 10 percent across the board, it’s like the film has donned a bulletproof vest! Any figure north of Rs. 16 crores would have been a win, but a Rs. 20 crore Friday? That’s just cherry on top, setting the stage for a supercharged weekend ahead.
Sure, there’s a minor roadblock ahead with the India vs South Africa World Cup Final on Saturday, which might steal some thunder from the evening and night shows. But fret not, this movie has enough fuel to not just cruise but zoom past its opening day numbers.
There’s even a tantalizing chance for Kalki 2898 AD to touch the Rs. 95 crore mark over the extended four-day weekend, but that hinges on Saturday’s collections. Will it hit a sixer or just manage a boundary? Only time will tell!
