Kantara Chapter 1 worldwide box office collection day 5: Rishab Shetty’s Kantara Chapter 1 was released in theatres on 2 October amid high expectations. The film that had the biggest weekend opening in Karnataka has crossed the ₹370 crore mark worldwide and is expected to surpass the collections of the first Kantara film.
Kantara Chapter 1 worldwide box office
Kantara Chapter 1 had a net domestic collection of ₹255.75 crore and a gross collection of ₹307 crore in India. Adding the ₹63 crore ($7 million) from overseas, the film has registered a worldwide gross of ₹370 crore in its first five days of release.
These numbers indicate that it has surpassed the lifetime collection of Sukumar’s Allu Arjun-starrer Pushpa: The Rise, which grossed ₹350.1 crore worldwide. The prequel to Kantara is also expected to surpass the collections of the first film, the second-highest-grossing Kannada film of all time, which had grossed ₹407.82 crore worldwide during its lifetime.
While that number seems reachable, it remains to be seen if Kantara Chapter 1 can beat Prashanth Neel’s Yash-starrer KGF Chapter 2’s ₹1215 crore haul.
