The film managed to earn this whopping amount due to the advance booking prior to the release. The film sold over 4.7 lakh tickets for the first weekend shows of the Prabhas-starrer. However, with the poor reviews flowing in, we can expect the collections to drop significantly in the upcoming days. That said, the film has already recovered its making cost. Made with a budget of Rs 500 crore, Adipurush is said to be one of the most expensive films of India. Even before the film’s release, the makers earned over Rs 400 crore via satellite rights, music rights, digital rights, and other ancillary rights.
