Pushpa 2 has been shattering box office records set by the movies released before it ever since it hit the big screens. However, the Allu Arjun starrer has reached a significant milestone now. In the over-a-month theatrical run, the actioner has dethroned SS Rajamouli's Baahubali 2 to become the highest-grossing Indian film.
 

Myhtri movie makers, the production house of Pushpa 2, took to their official X (formerly Twitter) account to share that the movie has become the highest-grossing Indian movie. As per Sacnilk, the Allu Arjun-Rashmika Mandanna starrer has earned ₹1206.20 crore in India in 32 days as opposed to ₹1030.42 crore minted by Baahubali 2. Worldwide too, the Sukumar directorial has raked in ₹1831 crore gross, as per the movie makers while the Prabhas-Rana Dagubatti starrer period action film raked ₹1788.06 crore. Consequently, Pushpa 2 has broken the nearly 8-year record held by Baahubali 2: The Conclusion.

Pushpa 2 eyes Dangal's record worldwide 

While Pushpa 2 continues its dream run at the domestic box office, things are looking great for the movie overseas as well. As per Sacnilk, the movie has minted ₹269 crore in overseas collection in 32 days. The Allu Arjun has become the second-highest-grossing Indian movie worldwide.
 

However, it has to surpass the mammoth collection of Aamir Khan starrer Dangal, which is the highest-grossing Indian movie worldwide. Released in 2016, the sports drama amassed a total of ₹2070.3 crore worldwide, with ₹535 crore in overseas collection alone. While Pushpa 2 is racing towards the mark, the release of new movies like Game Changer might be a deterrent to overseas dream run for the action movie.
