Prabhas and Deepika’s Flick Aces the Dreaded Monday Box Office Blues

Oh, Bollywood, the land of glitz, glamour, and occasionally, some serious box office magic! 🌟

Newshound Nisha here, ready to spill the latest chai on the new blockbuster shaking up the silver screen, Kalki 2898 AD—an apocalyptic rollercoaster that has gone and done the unthinkable. It released on June 27 and has been raking in the moolah like there’s no tomorrow. And why wouldn’t it? With a celebrity filled cast featuring Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan—and oh, let’s not forget Disha Patani—you’d expect nothing less, right?

So, what’s the damage? Hold onto your popcorn, folks, because in just five days, this cinematic juggernaut has grossed a jaw-dropping Rs 635 crore worldwide. That’s right, Rs 635 crore! 🚀 And if you’re thinking this is some Monday blues, think again. On its first Monday, the film minted over Rs 84 crore globally. That’s more than what I spend on my yearly spa treatments, and trust me, I splurge!

According to our pals at Sacnilk, the movie raked in Rs 34.6 crore across India on its first Monday alone. And the makers? They couldn’t help but share their glee, revealing that the film had already pulled in Rs 550 crore globally during its opening weekend. Talk about starting with a bang!

Remember last year’s top opener, Jawan? Shah Rukh Khan’s masterpiece collected Rs 75 crore on its opening day. Well, Kalki 2898 AD has gone and smashed that record with a first-day collection of Rs 191 crore worldwide. Sorry, SRK, but it looks like Prabhas and his crew have stolen your thunder this year. 🚀

Now, before you get too starry-eyed, let’s talk about the movie itself. It’s set in a dystopian world inspired by Hindu scriptures, aiming to give us all a peek into what life might look like in the year 2898 AD. Directed by Nag Ashwin, this film is more than just eye candy; it’s a futuristic saga that promises to keep you glued to your seat.

Nisha’s Nutshell: The moral of the story, dear readers, is that when Bollywood decides to go big, it goes galactic. Forget the skies; the box office is the new limit. Whether it’s inspired by ancient scriptures or just pure star power, one thing’s for sure: Bollywood knows how to keep us hooked, booked, and on the edge of our seats. 💫

Until next time, stay fabulous and keep gossiping!
