RRR Box Office: With Baahubali, director SS Rajamouli did the unthinkable as he shattered records not just in his homefront but also nationally and eventually internationally! So much so, that the film still stands on top after all the while and many releases later.
And now, as the director is working on his upcoming film RRR the anticipation is higher than has ever been seen in Indian cinema. Surely with the massive cast including Ram Charan, Jr. NTR, Alia Bhatt amongst others in place and the name of Rajamouli in the forefront, expectations are high!

While the AP and Telangana regions have collectively recorded 215 crores (Nizam – 75 crores, Andhra – 100 crores and Ceded – 40 crores) at this point, Karnataka rights have been sold for 50 crores and Kerala rights for 15 crores while the Tamilnadu rights are in talks! But that’s not it, the overseas rights have been bought for a massive 70 crores. With all this, RRR is the first film that would easily do the pre-release business of more than 400 Crores from South India and Overseas alone.
Having said this, the RRR has already shattered the pre-release business of Baahubali 2 with a huge margin. It is also said that the makers are eyeing on big numbers in the North India market too as the director had already made his mark with Baahubali 2, currently the biggest blockbuster of Hindi Cinema.
It looks like new records will be written for sure the next time around with RRR but the industry is going to have to look for new ways to register these numbers. RRR will be released on the 8th of January 2021 in 10 Indian languages.
