Box Office Performance:

The film’s journey in the Hindi market has been notably successful, although it narrowly missed reaching the 300 crore mark. By the end of its theatrical run, Kalki 2898 AD had amassed a substantial 295 crores, positioning it as the second highest-grossing Hindi film of 2024, trailing only behind Stree 2, which has raked in 462.85 crores and is still performing well. In comparison to other major Bollywood releases, Kalki 2898 AD outperformed several notable films, including Fighter (215 crores) and Shaitaan (151 crores).

The film enjoyed a theatrical run of nearly one and a half months, with its performance peaking before being overshadowed by the Independence Day releases. The three-way clash on August 15, featuring Stree 2, Vedaa, and Khel Khel Mein, led to a significant decline in ticket sales for Kalki 2898 AD. Even in its final days in theaters, the film continued to attract audiences, with daily collections nearing 1 crore.

Financial Returns:

The production and distribution costs for the Hindi version of Kalki 2898 AD were estimated at around 115 crores. With box office collections totaling 295 crores, the return on investment (ROI) is estimated to be approximately 180 crores. This translates into a remarkable profit margin of over 156.5%, highlighting the film’s financial success and the positive reception it has received from audiences.
