The key stakeholders – Yash, Prashanth Neel and Hombale Films – dreamt big to create a global film and created history with their vision. They justified their film dialogue – Powerful people make places powerful, as the history of Sandalwood will be split into two eras – Pre KGF and Post KGF. Rocky is a monster and with KGF 2, Yash has taken the shape of a box office Monster, becoming a phenomenon. The trio with KGF 2 has put the Kannada film industry on a global map. Through its four day opening weekend, KGF: Chapter 2 has created at-least 28 prominent records across India. And the records are not just restricted to any particular version. From Hindi to Kannada, Telugu, and Malayalam – the film has set new records in the versions, making it a pan India project in true sense.

It's only the Tamil Version that missed out on creating any records, but that’s because some of the high fairing screens were taken away by Vijay’s Beast. If not for Beast, the movie would have created new records for a non-Kollywood film in Tamil Nadu as well. The costs of KGF: Chapter 2 are limited (more on this soon) and this makes it a cash rich cow in terms of ROI for the stakeholders. Just within its four days run, it’s a blockbuster, fast headed towards attain the all time blockbuster mark. Below are the 29 key records that the film has created in its opening weekend.
