After creating frenzy over the last 3 days, SS Rajamouli's Baahubali 2: The Conclusion released on April 28 created history by breaking all the existing Box Office Collections records. Not just in India, the sequel of Baahubali: The Beginning has now been ranked number 3 in the United States Box Office based on its opening weekend earnings. While a lot of records were broken, there was one thing that the movie failed to do, it could not break the opening day BO collection of Shahrukh Khan's Happy New Year in the Hindi market.

So, though it may have left SRK with a few bragging rights, Baahubali 2 has cornered all the glory and is likely to end up as the first movie in India to enter the Rs 1,000 cr club.
