Ram Charan's latest release, Peddi, has reached a significant milestone by surpassing 2 million ticket sales on BookMyShow. This mark was achieved in just 2.5 days, as the film crossed the threshold by midday on its third day. The steady pace of bookings suggests that the movie is successfully maintaining its momentum through the first weekend. This achievement places the film among the elite fast-movers in Indian cinema history. By reaching this figure in 2.5 days, Peddi has officially tied with RRR for the fourth-fastest record on the platform. The current standings for the fastest films to reach the 2 million sales mark are as follows: 1st Place: Pushpa 2: The Rule – Reached via pre-release bookings alone 2nd Place: Kalki 2898 AD – 1.5 Days 3rd Place: Baahubali 2: The Conclusion – 2 Days 4th Place: RRR and Peddi – 2.5 Days (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Securing a spot alongside legendary titles like Baahubali 2 and RRR is a huge statement for any film. The momentum started early with a robust pre-sale period that saw 874,900 tickets sold. The opening day on Thursday was explosive, adding 651,040 tickets, while Friday maintained a strong hold with another 387,780 tickets. By the early hours of Saturday, the cumulative total had reached 1,913,720, and it quickly surged past the 2 million mark shortly after. The intensity of the audience's interest is also evident in the peak hour data. Peddi recorded a peak of 47,330 tickets sold in a single hour on BookMyShow. This performance places it fourth in the all-time peak hour rankings, only trailing behind Pushpa 2, Kalki 2898 AD, and Salaar. It managed to outperform several other massive releases in this metric, showing the sheer density of demand during prime booking slots. Here is the list of the top peak hour performances on BMS: 1. Pushpa 2 - 107.65K 2. Kalki 2898 AD - 95.71K 3. Salaar - 54.76K 4. Peddi - 47.33K 5. The Raja Saab - 44.36K 6. Devara - 38.02K 7. Game Changer - 36.74K 8.#MSG - 31.6K 9.#TheyCallHimOG - 28.81K 10.#SKV - 28.02K (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) If we dive into the hourly trends for Saturday morning, the film is showing a very healthy trajectory. While the very early morning slots between 6 am and 9 am were slightly quieter than Friday, the numbers began to jump significantly from 9 am onwards. For instance, between 10 am and 11 am, the film sold 24,480 tickets compared to 23,870 yesterday. The 11 am to 12 pm window was even better, with 27,350 tickets sold today against 21,940 yesterday. Overall, the cumulative sales from 6 am to 12 pm today stand at 97,080, which is higher than yesterday's 92,850 for the same period. According to early trends, Peddi has had a strong start at the box office. On its second day, the film collected 26.90 crore net in India across 10,113 shows. While this represents a 47.3 percent drop from the 51.00 crore net collected on opening day, it is a standard trend for big-budget releases heading into the weekend. The total India net collection now stands at 96.40 crore, while the India gross has reached 114.49 crore. Combined with a steady overseas gross of 36.00 crore, the worldwide total gross for Peddi has touched 150.49 crore in just two days. This upward trend on Saturday suggests that the film is heading toward a massive first weekend. Crossing the 2 million mark within 72 hours is a rare feat that highlights the immense star power of Ram Charan and the strong connect the film has found with the masses. We will keep tracking these numbers closely as Peddi continues its historic run at the box office.
