KGF Chapter 2: Yash's film earns ₹676 crore, beats Baahubali lifetime gross
The blood-soaked land of Kolar Gold Fields has a new overlord now, Rocky, whose name strikes fear in the heart of his foes. His allies look up to him as their Savior, the government sees him as a threat, and his enemies are clamoring for revenge.
Kannada film KGF: Chapter 2 continues to rewrite record books at the box office. The film has managed a strong hold in its sixth day i.e. Tuesday, registering earnings of over ₹50 crores across all languages on the day. This takes the film's total cross to an impressive ₹676 crore. The number is significant because this means KGF 2 has surpassed the lifetime earnings of Baahubali: The Beginning ( ₹650 crore). According to industry estimates, the Yash-starrer is poised to cross the ₹1000-crore mark sometime next week.
