However, the detention of Allu Arjun on December 13 was short-lived as far as the collections of the movie are concerned. Rather than suffering a drop, Pushpa 2 had continuous collection and even saw massive peaks on weekends, definitely indicating an incredible fan base that followed universally.

Impact of Allu Arjun's Detention
Allu Arjun was briefly detained on December 13 following a stampede incident; this didn't affect the box office of the film. On the contrary, it was reported that the controversy evoked an interest in footfalls. This, according to trade expert Ramesh Bala, is due to the proactive response Allu Arjun made regarding compensating the victim's family and his fanbase's retention.
Pushpa 2 vs. Mufasa
Mufasa The Lion King's magic continues at the box office. The film which started with Rs 8 crore 30 lakhs on the first day, managed to make a good earning on the ninth day as well. The film collected Rs 9 crore 25 lakhs on the second Saturday. With this, the collection of the film has now become Rs 90 crores. This film was ahead of the ninth day collection of Deadpool and Wolverine. Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman's film had earned Rs 7 crore 25 lakhs on the ninth day.
Pushpa 2 vs. Baby John
If we talk about the film's Baby John collection, then it is doing badly at the box office. Despite being released on Christmas, this film could not do anything special. On the first day, the film collected only Rs 11.25 crore. On the second day, there was a huge drop in the film's earnings. On Thursday, with a drop of 57.78%, the film earned Rs 4 crore 75 lakh. On the third day, the film's condition was even worse. On Friday, the film did a business of only Rs 3 crore 65 lakh. According to the latest figures, the film has collected Rs 4 crore 75 lakh on Saturday. With this, the total earnings of the film have become Rs 23.9 crore. These figures of the film's earnings are disappointing. This film has proved to be a flop in the first weekend itself.
Pushpa 2 Hit or Flop:
Pushpa 2: The Rule is a mass entertainer par excellence. It has minted an unbelievable ₹1,600 crores in the global box office within just 24 days from its release. Many records have tumbled as it has become the fourth-grossing Indian film. Its record-breaking run and sustained audience interest mark history for it as well.
Budget:
With a production budget estimated at ₹400-500 crore, Pushpa 2: The Rule has not only recovered its cost but has made huge profits within the first week. It is among one of the biggest cinematic triumphs of all time with the kind of success record shown by the film worldwide.
