Chiranjeevi's Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy continued to keep the cash registers ringing at the worldwide box office in the second weekend and has beaten the lifetime collection record of KGF 1 in 12 days.
Released on October 2, Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy clashed with War and Joker and collected Rs 205.6 crore at the worldwide box office in its nine-day extended first week. The movie became the thirteenth-highest grossing south Indian film of all time, beating the records of Viswasam, Maharshi and Khaidi No 150.
In its second week, Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy did not have big competitors, small-budget movies like RDX Love and Vadaladu hit the screens. Hence, trade experts in the film Nagar predicted that the movie will fare well this week too. As predicted, the film went to make good collections with many cinema halls witnessing 100 percent occupancy in its second weekend.
When compared to its opening weekend business, Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy witnessed over 85 percent drop in its collection in the second week. The reduced screen count, shows, ticket price and the number of days were a reason for this decline. But its collection looks bigger when compared to other big-ticket films.
Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy has collected approximately Rs 20 crore gross at the worldwide box office in its second weekend. Its 12-day total collection has reached Rs 225.60 crore in the global market. It has shattered the records of KGF: Chaper 1 (Rs 225 crore), Petta (Rs 222 crore) and Rangasthalam (Rs 216 crore) and become the 10th all-time highest grossing south Indian movie.
