Baahubali 2 collects Rs. 1,600 crore in 28 days at worldwide box office; pins high hopes on China release

SS Rajamouli's Baahubali 2 (Bahubali: The Conclusion) has made decent collection at the worldwide box office in its fourth week and crossed another historic mark - Rs 1,600 crore in 28 days.

Having collected Rs 1,502 crore in three weeks, Baahubali 2 clashed with Half Girlfriend, Hindi Medium, Keshava and few other much-hyped movies, which vacated it from some cinema halls in the fourth week. But the movie did fantastic business in existing number of cinema halls around the world. The film witnessed 100 percent occupancy in several centres across the globe throughout its fourth week.

The Prabhas and Rana Daggubati starrer minted approximately Rs 63 crore gross in its fourth weekend and Rs 40 crore on the weekdays. Baahubali 2 has collected approximately Rs 103 crore gross at the worldwide box office in its fourth week and its 28-day total collection has reached Rs 1,605 crore gross in the global market. It has become the first Indian movie to cross the mark of Rs 1,600 crore.

In its fifth week, Baahubali 2 is locking horns with Sachin: A Billion Dreams, Rarandoi Veduka Chuddam and few other Indian releases, which have further reduced its screen count. The advance booking shows that the movie will continue its dream run in a limited number of cinema halls and is likely inch closer to the mark of Rs 1,700 crore in its fifth week.

The makers of Baahubali 2 are currently in talks with international distributors for its release in China, Taiwan and few other countries. They are yet to finalise a release date, but sources close to the production house say the producers are looking at an earliest date possible.

Baahubali: The Beginning was released in China, but could not make it big at the box office. However, the huge success of Dangal in the country has generated lot of buzz for Baahubali 2. Taran Adarsh tweeted: "After the love showered upon #Dangal in China, one looks forward to #Baahubali2 making a huge impression there... #IndianCinemaGoingGlobal."
