The highly anticipated film Adipurush, directed by Om Raut and featuring Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, and Saif Ali Khan, has made a remarkable impact at the box office on its opening day. Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics and audiences, the film has managed to mint a staggering ₹150 crore worldwide. This is a testament to the star power of Prabhas and the excitement surrounding the film.
Early estimates suggest that the Hindi version of Adipurush has collected around ₹36-38 crore on its first day, while the all-India collection in all languages stands at ₹90 crore. These figures make it the third biggest opening for a Hindi film post-pandemic, following the successes of Pathaan and KGF 2. This is an impressive feat considering the challenges faced by the film industry due to the ongoing pandemic.
The success of Adipurush can be attributed to several factors. Firstly, Prabhas has established himself as a bankable star with his previous blockbuster films like Baahubali series and Saaho. Despite the mixed reactions from critics and audiences, it is clear that Adipurush has struck a chord with the masses. The strong box office collection on its opening day indicates that there is a significant demand for this kind of big-budget, action-packed spectacle.
Looking ahead, it will be interesting to see how Adipurush performs in the coming days. With Prabhas leading the way and a talented cast and crew behind it, Adipurush has the potential to become one of the highest-grossing films of the year.
