Will KGF 2 Starring Yash, Sanjay Dutt Will Break Prabhas Starrer Baahubali’s Record At Box Office?

KGF 2 Starring Yash, Sanjay Dutt is Often Pitted Against Prabhas Starrer Baahubali, Will It Break Latter's Box Office Record?

The makers of KGF: Chapter 2 has finally announced the release date. Starring Sandalwood actor Yash, the film introduced the story of a larger-than-life gangster, Raja Krishnappa Bairya aka Rocky. The first film was based on Rocky, who builds an empire for himself through the bad world of crime. In KGF 2, we will see Rocky go up against a bigger villain, Adheera played by Sanjay Dutt, and more deadly challenges.

KGF: Chapter 1 became the first-ever Kannada film to cross the 100-crore mark at the box office and globally it crossed the 200-mark, startling everyone. Interestingly, the film is often pitted against Baahubali: The Conclusion (2017). The film broke records and exceeded expectations at the box office and went on to become the second-highest grosser in India. The film not only earned a well-deserved profit but also added to the fame of the actors worldwide.

A similar thing happened when KGF: Chapter 1 was released. Apart from earning good profit at the box office, Yash gained much popularity globally. It will be interesting to watch if KGF: Chapter 2 breaks the Baahubali franchise record.

Meanwhile, Yash took to Twitter on Friday evening to announce the much-awaited release date of the film. The Yash, Sanjay Dutt starrer is all set to hit the theatres on July 16, 2021.
