Mumbai, June 18 - Prabhas-fronted Adipurush scored a humongous opening weekend at the Hindi box office. The movie, despite the negativity, remained rock solid over the weekend to hit the second-biggest opening weekend in Hindi in 2023.
After collection approx. 74.25 crores in the first 2 days, Adipurush is witnessing a jump of around 5-10% on its first Sunday as early estimates suggest around 38-39 crores net collection. It showed a drop in the night shows but still is collected superbly throughout the day to push the total collection to around 114 crores in Hindi, which is an excellent result by any means.
The movie has seen a jump in collections at both mass and multiplex centers today which resulted in a decent jump. The opening weekend performance of Adipurush in Hindi has exceeded expectations as pre-release projections were around 75 crores net.
Adipurush opened with mixed word of mouth but the Ramayana factor has played a vital role in its performance in Hindi. It will now be interesting to see how it performs from tomorrow onwards which will give an idea about when it can finish its run.
Meanwhile, the movie is likely to have crossed the 300 crores gross mark at the global box office in the opening weekend itself. In the first two days, it grossed around 215 crores and today, it is expected to score at least 85 crores worldwide to put the three-day weekend total to around 300 crores globally.
