S.S. Rajamouli’s epic period drama RRR didn’t just launch at the box office — it exploded into one of the most remarkable openings in indian cinema history. The film’s first two days of collections set records and surpassed expectations across multiple regions and languages.

Record‑Setting Worldwide Figures

From the moment RRR hit screens worldwide, audiences flocked to theatres in huge numbers. According to box office trackers and trade estimates:

  • On its opening day, RRR earned roughly ₹223 crore gross worldwide — making it one of the strongest global openings for an indian film.
  • By the end of the second day, the total worldwide gross collection was estimated between ₹340 crore and ₹350 crore.
These numbers mean RRR collected well over ₹300 crore within just 48 hours of release, an extraordinary achievement that put it in the elite company of indian films with the biggest opening periods ever.

Breakdown Across Languages and Markets

One reason RRR performed so strongly was its multi‑language release strategy — catering not just to telugu and tamil audiences, but to nationwide viewers through dubbed versions in Hindi, Malayalam, and Kannada. Early estimates show:

  • The telugu versions continued dominance in their home markets, setting all‑time high Day 2 figures.
  • The Hindi‑dubbed version also made significant gains, contributing strongly to the cumulative total.
  • International markets added substantial value to the two‑day tally, with gross figures from the U.S., Europe, and other regions boosting the worldwide count.
Even with some variation in reported figures from different sources, the consensus is clear: RRR’s box office haul for its first 48 hours was historic.

What This Means in Context

To appreciate RRR’s performance:

  • The film outpaced many previous indian blockbusters in initial global earnings.
  • Its ₹340–350 crore+ two‑day gross placed it among the most successful worldwide openings for any indian film at that time.
  • The numbers reflected not only fan enthusiasm but also strong word‑of‑mouth and repeat viewership — signals of a film that resonated deeply with audiences domestically and abroad.
Overall, RRR’s massive earnings over just two days illustrate a cinematic phenomenon — one that helped reset benchmarks for scale and appeal in indian cinema.
