Bahubali 2 - The Conclusion (Hindi) has grossed 245 crore nett apprx in its first week and smashed records by unimaginable margins. The previous first week record was Sultan at 208.99 crore nett and this film has done around 17% more but that does not tell the whole story as if we look at the territory figures the gaps are much more. Sultan in Mumbai held the first week record at 61.59 crore nett and Bahubali 2 (Hindi) has grossed 85 crore nett plus. In Delhi /UP the figure of Sultan was 40 crore nett and here it is 45 crore nett but this circuit has capacity problems which limits the gains. In East Punjab, Bahubali 2 (Hindi) grossed 27.50 crore nett apprx and the record first week business of Sultan was 21.96 crore nett.
The film is such a huge blockbuster that it will start to break ALL TIME CIRCUIT records in the next day or two. In a circuit like CP Berar the film has grossed more in one week than the lifetime of Sultan. A blockbuster of this proportion has not been seen in a long time and it much bigger than the likes of Dangal, PK, Bajrangi Bhaijaan and 3 Idiots.
Bahubali 2 - The Conclusion is easily the biggest blockbuster of the decade and may well turn out to the biggest blockbuster this century also. Gadar - Ek Prem Katha (2001) is the biggest blockbuster post 2000 and the way Bahubali 2 is going at the moment you can't rule the film turning out to be a bigger blockbuster than that film.
