Box Office: Kalki 2898 AD (Hindi) Is The Second Biggest Hindi Opener Of 2024 After Fighter

Yes, it has happened. 5 months after the release of Fighter, finally there is a film which has started really well in 2024. Back in January, when the Hrithik Roshan starrer was released, it had collected 24.60 crores at the box office. After that, a few highly anticipated films were released, but aside from breaking the record of Fighter, they struggled even to get a double-digit opening. However, it’s the dubbed version of a South film that has now arrived, and though it’s still much behind Fighter, it did that well at the box office.

It has been an interesting story for Kalki 2898 AD [Hindi] since it was trending around 15 crores till around 10 days back, and then earlier this week, it became quite apparent that the 20 crores mark would finally be breached after a really long way. Advance booking reports were encouraging, too, and though they were not really going bonkers (at least in the Hindi version), there were clear indications that Kalki 2898 AD would at least challenge Fighter, if not go past its first-day score eventually. However, this happened eventually, and now it’s time to consolidate.
