Box office collection: Did Kalki 2898 AD beat Salaar on day 1?

According to the industry tracker, Sacnilk, Kalki 2898 AD has made a strong debut at the box office, collecting around $11.9 million on its opening day. However, it is essential to note that these figures are early estimates and subject to change over time. Since the movie has been released in multiple languages, the occupancy rates vary:

  • Telugu (2D): 83.42% overall occupancy
  • Tamil (3D): 34.87% overall occupancy
  • Hindi (2D): 25.90% overall occupancy
  • Hindi (3D): 35.72% overall occupancy
  • Malayalam: 28.34% overall occupancy

Comparatively, Salaar had garnered around $10 million in India’s net collection on its opening day. Moreover, the film collected $74 million worldwide by the end of its theatrical run. But, despite its record-breaking performance, based on the early estimates, Kalki 2898 AD has surpassed Salaar in opening day numbers.

As the figures keep updating, it will be intriguing to see how the sci-fi action-thriller performs at the box office. However, it is essential to note that these numbers are based on Sacnilk data and may vary from the original producer figures.

Talking about Kalki 2898 AD cast, the movie features Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, and Kamal Haasan in lead roles. Additionally, Disha Patani, Dulquer Salmaan, Mrunal Thakur, SS Rajamouli, and Vijay Deverakonda make special appearances in the film. Kalki 2898 AD’s original synopsis on IMDb reads, “A modern-day avatar of Vishnu, a Hindu god, who is believed to have descended to earth to protect the world from evil forces.”

As the movie continues its run, it will be interesting to see whether Kalki 2898 AD can maintain its momentum and break previous box office records. Stay tuned for more updates!
