"Salaar," directed by prashant Neel and featuring prabhas in the lead role, is set to hit theaters on december 22, raising high expectations among fans. prabhas, who last achieved a billion-dollar film with Baahubali 2, is anticipated to break this streak with "Salaar." Despite the significant release, prashant Neel has opted for limited promotional activities, relying on the strong content and the brand image of Prabhas.

While the film is eagerly awaited by fans, there are hopes that "Salaar" will surpass the highest opening day collection records set by films like "Leo," "Jawaan," and "Animal" this year. "Leo" holds the record with a worldwide collection of 135 crores on its opening day, followed by "Jawaan" with 129.6 crores, and "Animal" with 119 crores.

Fans are optimistic that "Salaar" will break these records and claim the top spot. Given Prabhas's mass appeal, achieving a hundred crore gross is considered feasible, considering his previous successes like "Saaho" and "Adipurush."


 However, industry experts express reservations about surpassing "Leo" due to intense competition in North india from Shah Rukh Khan's "Dunki." Shah Rukh Khan's popularity in the North could pose a challenge for "Salaar." Additionally, the international market will see competition from the release of "Aquaman 2" on the same date, potentially affecting "Salaar's" international performance.


Despite these challenges, Prabhas's mass following and the film's strong content make achieving the hundred crore gross target plausible. However, surpassing the record set by "Leo" may pose a more significant challenge for "Salaar" in the current competitive scenario.
