SHOCKING STATS: BAAHUBALI 2 HAS COLLECTED ALMOST THRICE OF BAAHUBALI 1

Let us see how the other biggies over the past 3 years have fared by the end of their second weekend run at the Chennai City box office. The city has had some additional theatres over the past few months like Palazzo and AGS T Nagar. So show count wise, new films have a slight advantage over films that released last year.

2014 Anjaan - 3,92,73,340 (10 day run)
2014 Kaththi - 5,32,40,818 (12 day run)
2014 Lingaa - 5,34,98,496 (10 day run)
2015 I - 6,88,20,095 (12 day run)
2015 Yennai Arindhaal - 4,90,50,920 (11 day run)
2015 Puli - 4,45,80,861 (11 day run)
2015 Vedalam - 5,15,24,521 (14 day run)
2016 Theri - 6,49,47,650 (11 day run)
2016 Kabali - 8,26,62,295 (10 day run)
2016 Iru Mugan - 4,79,26,838 (11 day run)
2017 Bairavaa - 5,59,88,314 (11 day run)
2017 Si3 - 4,82,47,010 (11 day run)
2017 Baahubali 2 - 9,06,79,175 (10 day run)

The first part of Baahubali has collected only 3,84,25,605 by the end of its 2nd weekend, but Baahubali 2’s Chennai city gross is around 9 crores. That shows the shelf life of the brand. With Baahubali 2 already collecting 9 crores in 10 days, the possibility of the film becoming the highest grossing film ever at Chennai City box office are very high.
