Pushpa 2 is now coming with the cushion of having the highest ticket prices for any Indian film thanks to the permissions accorded by the governments of Andhra Pradesh in Telangana.
What these high prices essentially mean is that the film is certain to set the records tumbling on the opening day at the box office.
Given the massive price hikes, there is a chance that Pushpa 2 might touch a whopping Rs 100 crore gross on the first day in the Telugu states itself. This is going to be a mighty feat in itself once it happens.
The film has a lot riding on it and it needs to collect Rs 212 crores in AP and Telangana alone just to breakeven. At this rate, the film will have to gross over Rs 400 crore in the Telugu states just to enter safe zone.
