Dangal and Baahubali 2 were 2 big movies that hit the headlines right from the day they were announced. Both the flicks have been battling each other at the global Box Office; it was difficult to predict the highest grosser of all time.
Dangal had emerged as the highest grosser, but with Baahubali 2’s release, tables turned. The SS Rajamouli film broke all records of Dangal and took its place (Highest grosser). But with Dangal’s release in China, things changed once again.
It was a tough competition; on 27th of May, there was just 1 crore difference between the two. While Dangal’s collections were 1622 crores, Baahubali 2’s collections were 1623 crores. Everyone expected that Dangal would easily overtake it, considering the love it is receiving in China.
And yes, finally it has done it! On 28th of May i.e. yesterday, Dangal went ahead of Baahubali 2 and we have an official proof of the same.
