Join Us‘Kalki 2898 AD’ has entered its fourth weekend at the box office in style. The Prabhas-starrer is now looking at facing ‘Bad Newz’ in the Hindi market.
‘Kalki 2898 AD’ has entered its fourth weekend at the box office. The film collected almost Rs 600 crore nett in India by the end of its third week. Starring Prabhas, Deepika Padukone and Amitabh Bachchan in important roles, it continued to earn well even after 22 days with the third Thursday adding Rs 2.75 crore to the overall total of Rs 599.20 crore at the domestic box office.
The Nag Ashwin-directorial saw a fabulous run in the Telugu and the Hindi markets. Out of this Rs 599.20 crore, around Rs 271 crore is from the Telugu market while the Hindi belt is right behind after collecting approximately Rs 265 crore in 22 days.
In its fourth weekend now, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ will be facing tough competition from ‘Bad Newz’ at the box office, especially in the Hindi market. The Vicky Kaushal-Triptii Dimri starrer is the latest Bollywood release this weekend and has largely received positive reviews from the audience on social media. The film is expected to share screens with the science-fiction drama in the North, at least, which might just hamper the smooth run of ‘Kalki’, especially in the multiplexes.
Neither ‘Indian 2’ nor ‘Sarfira’, the two films which were released last weekend, could deter Kalki’s performance. However, things seem to be changing this time with the release of ‘Bad Newz’.
Meanwhile, ‘Kalki 2898 AD’ is expected to be released online by the end of its 10-week run at the box office. Various media reports suggested that the makers have decided to release the film on an OTT platform only when the film has completed at least 10 weeks at the ticket window.
