‘Baahubali 2’ All Set to Start the Rs 400-Crore Club in Bollywood

Hail the celluloid juggernaut!

Baahubali 2 is the new juggernaut in town. The Rajamouli film, starring Prabhas and Rana Daggubati, is quite literally minting money at the box office, toppling innumerable records on the way. The Hindi version alone has already collected Rs 390.25 crore in two weeks - a first. And by the looks of it, it will have no trouble entering an all-new Rs 400-crore club.

Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted to the effect:

#Baahubali2 is a ONE-HORSE RACE... Collects ₹ 390.25 cr in 2 weeks... All set to start a new Club for HINDI films: ₹ 400 cr Club. India biz.
