When Pushpa 2 was released in theatres on December 4, 2024, it received a positive response and did exceptionally well at the box office, both in India and abroad. It collected 1871 crore worldwide, making it the second-highest-grossing Indian film after Dangal, which has an over 2000 crore haul. According to Sacnilk, Pushpa 2 recorded a shockingly low opening in Japan despite the actor’s presence there, with only 886 admissions. In contrast, RRR had 8230 admissions during its Japan release, while Saaho had 6510 on its opening day.
