Baahubali 2 Is India’s Top Opener in 2017

SS Rajamouli’s magnum opus Baahubali : The Conclusion continues to dominate the Bollywood. Although several star-studded films (including Salman Khan’s Eid release Tubelight and SRK’s Raees) have been released, none of them could actually go close to the startling figure of Baahubali 2 (Rs 41 Crore).

Ajay Devgn and Rohit Shetty’s latest offering Golmaal Again has managed to get the second position by grossing Rs 30.14 Crore on its day one. This is second film of Ajay and Rohit to surpass Rs 30 Crore-mark. Earlier Singham Returns has raked in Rs 32.09 Cr Net Gross.

Trade analysts predict that the cast-team combo plus Golmaal franchise plus hype plus holiday translated into earth-shattering Day 1 for the film.
