‘KGF-2’ overtakes ‘Dangal’ at box office

‘KGF-2’ as now becomes the second highest grossing ‘Hindi’ movie of all time. The film has overtaken Aamir Khan’s sports drama, surpassing its Rs 387.38 crore lifetime collection at the box office, reports The Indian Express.

The film is showing no signs of slowing down. Directed by Prashanth Neel, the film is marching towards Rs 1100 crore-mark worldwide.

Trade analist Ramesh Bala on Thursday morning shared a post which read, “KGFChapter2 Hindi crosses Dangal ‘s All-India Nett to become All-time No.2 Hindi movie in India, just behind Baahubali2.” Meanwhile, Taran Adarsh shared the first three rankings of highest earning Hindi films at the box office. He wrote, “TOP 3 HIGHEST GROSSING HINDI FILMS… 1. Baahubali-2 ; 2. KGF2 ; 3. Dangal / Nett BOC. India biz. Hindi.”

‘Baahubali 2: The Conclusion’, starring Prabhas, made a remarkable Rs. 510.99 crore, while Dangal, as previously said, made an outstanding Rs. 387.38 crore. Not only that, but KGF 2 had also become the highest-grossing Hindi picture on its opening day, opening weekend, and opening week.

While KGF 2 might have topped Dangal as far as collections in Hindi belt are concerned, the Aamir Khan film still reigns supreme at the worldwide collections list of Indian films at the box office.

Dangal’s worldwide earning is Rs 2024 crore, Baahubali 2’s minted Rs 1,810 cr, and KGF 2 stands at 4th number with its Rs 1,056 cr collection.

The Indian Express’ film critic Shubhra Gupta wrote, “The trouble with films busy working on their look is that they forget about plotting. KGF 2 swings haphazardly between the past and the present.”
