Despite the controversies surrounding its lead actor Allu Arjun, "Pushpa 2: The Rule" continues to dominate the box office since its release. Starring Allu Arjun and Rashmika Mandanna, the film has been a hit from the very beginning, making waves not only in South Indian cinema but also in Bollywood.

One of its significant milestones is becoming the first South Indian film to earn over ₹800 crore in the Hindi market.

Released on December 5, the film continues to perform well even after five weeks in theaters. On its 33rd day in cinemas, audience enthusiasm remains high, with fans still lining up to see it, drawn in by its unique storyline, impressive action scenes, and outstanding performances.
