RRR Has Surpassed All Projections At The Box Office In Japan
Even after fifteen weeks in release, it is tough to predict where exactly will RRR close and that’s the speciality of the Japanese box office as films enjoy very long legs here. A few weeks back, JPY 600/7000 million felt like a good target but now, with the momentum RRR has got, it shall easily go over JPY 1 billion (USD 7.50 million) mark. How much higher is tough to say, it’s better to just sit back and enjoy.
RRR Targets To Become The Highest Indian Grosser Of 2022 Worldwide
RRR is also closing on KGF: Chapter 2 worldwide gross, with Rs. 1162 crores to date and now stands just Rs. 25 crores away from topping KGF 2. It is possible that Japan alone fills the gap but even if it falls short, there is a strong possibility of the film winning an Oscar for Best Song and that may give it some sort of box office run in western markets if released.
