KGF Chapter 2 box office collection day 1: Yash starrer creates history

Kannada movie KGF: Chapter 2, starring Yash in the lead role, has stormed the Indian box office. Thanks to the huge demand created by the film's first part in 2018, the sequel reaped the benefit by opening in cinemas across the world to a rousing response.

KGF 2 is said to have been released on about 10000 screens worldwide. As per reports, multiple versions of the film are available across India on about 6500 screens and the Hindi version alone is playing on about 4000 screens.

These are unheard screen counts for an original Kannada movie and KGF 2 has set a new benchmark for the Kannada film industry while adding to the growing demand for commercial movies from the south in the Hindi speaking belt.

The worldwide screen count of KGF 2 is the same as RRR, which became director SS Rajamouli's second film to collect Rs 1000 crore at the worldwide box office.
