the post-COVID era, Prabhas has eclipsed Shah Rukh Khan’s Indian box office total with Kalki 2898 AD.
Now in its fourth week, Kalki 2898 AD shows no signs of slowing down. Despite new releases, the movie is making a considerable profit at the Indian box office, enabling it to join the 600 crore club. Prabhas has personally benefited greatly from this major release since it has allowed him to finally surpass Shah Rukh Khan’s post-COVID domestic collection.
After Baahubali 2: The Conclusion’s unprecedented success, Prabhas found it difficult to regain his form and achieve the kind of success befitting someone of his caliber. He finally turned his career around with Salaar last year, and he raised the bar with his most recent dystopian science fiction blockbuster. He had previously became the second highest-grossing Indian actor after COVID, having crossed the 1000 crore mark.
Shah Rukh Khan amassed an incredible 1415.64 crores in domestic box office revenue with his incredible comeback last year (543.22 crores from Pathaan, 640.42 crores from Jawan, and 232 crores from Dunki). Shah Rukh was the highest-grossing Indian actor in the post-pandemic era prior to the release of Kalki 2898 AD, but he is now in third position.
With 105 crores from Radhe Shyam, 289 crores from Adipurush, 407 crores from Salaar, and 621.95 crores from Kalki 2898 AD, Prabhas has amassed a total post-COVID collection of 1422.95 crores at the Indian box office. Thus, he has managed to overtake Shah Rukh Khan’s record of 1415.64 crores to secure the position of second highest-grossing actor.
After COVID, Deepika Padukone is the highest-grossing Indian actor, having brought in a staggering 1482.17 crores domestically. It consists of 102 crores for 83, 543.22 crores for Pathaan, 215 crores for Fighter, and 621.95 crores for Kalki 2898 AD.
