Even though it has not been a day of release, ‘Adipurush’ has already reached a big milestone. On Book My Show (BMS), it has more likes than highly expected movies like ‘RRR’ and ‘KGF: Chapter 2’. The movie, which was directed by Om Raut and starred Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, and Saif Ali Khan, has gotten more than 1 million likes on BMS. This has made history and created a buzz that has never been seen before. This is a big deal because, according to recent data, only SS Rajamouli's ‘RRR’ had ever hit this number before.
Om Raut's mythological tale ‘Adipurush’ has gotten a lot of good reviews on the site where people buy tickets. Reports say that the movie has already sold 150,000 free tickets on BMS, with each ticket costing an average of Rs 200. This early success with ticket sales could add around 3 crores to how much money the movie makes at the box office. With 1 million likes and good reviews on BMS, it looks like ‘Adipurush’ is going to set and break a lot of box office records.
Comparing votes and likes on BMS in the year 2023, ‘Adipurush’'s 1 million likes are much more than the best-performing film ‘Pathaan’, which made 543 crores but only had 367.9K likes. ‘The Kerala Story’, which came in second place, made 238.2 crores but only got 226.1K likes. The third-best film, ‘Tu Jhoothi Main Makkar’, which made 146 crores at the box office, only got 89,7K likes on the ticketing site.
Only two films from the year 2022 have more likes on BMS than ‘Adipurush’'s milestone. ‘RRR’, which stars Ram Charan and Jr. NTR has around 1 million likes, while Yash's ‘KGF: Chapte'r 2’ has 923.8K likes. ‘The Kashmir Files’ was another hit movie in 2022. It made 252 crores at the box office and got 600.5K likes on BMS.
In 2022, the Hollywood hit movie ‘Avatar: The Way of Water’ made 390 crores at the Indian box office and got 227.1K likes on BMS. ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’, a much-anticipated movie starring Aamir Khan, only made 58.6 crores at the box office, even though it had 127K likes on Facebook.
The fact that ‘Adipurush’ has gotten as many likes as ‘RRR and even more than ‘KGF: Chapter 2’ shows that people are very excited about this Ramayana-based movie. With Prabhas as Raghav, Kriti Sanon as Janaki, and Saif Ali Khan as Lankesh, ‘Adipurush’ has gotten a lot of buzz and is likely to do well at the box office for a long time.
