The day-1 collections of Kalki 2898 AD are impressive, though not setting new records as anticipated.
The film in Hindi collected 20% more than the opening day collection of Hrithik Roshan's Fighter, indicating the powerful stardom of Prabhas in comparison to Hrithik Roshan in the Hindi belt.
From the language versions, on the first day, the film collected a gross of Rs 110 Cr in India and Rs 65 Cr overseas, totaling about Rs 175 Cr worldwide.
In the Telugu states, the collective gross is Rs 72 Cr on the first day. The talk of the film ranges from average to good, which means it has the potential for continued impressive collections.
However, the high ticket prices may hinder its speed in collections after the weekend, so it remains to be seen how this will be handled.
The film has been directed by Nag Ashwin and produced by Vyjayanthi Movies. Kalki 2898 AD stars Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, Disha Patani, and Kamal Haasan.
