At 374+ Cr, Attarintiki Is Bigger Than Baahubali

In its 18th day now at box office, Rajamouli's magnum opus has collected nearly 436.1 crores gross approximately from worldwide box office. With this happening, a virtual war has started between fans of different heroes and fans of Baahubali heroes as one section is now claiming that they have collected double than what the previous industry hit flick "Attarintiki Daredi" has amassed.

Humiliated by these comparisons even by media houses, few 'intelligent' fans of Pawan Kalyan have come up with a stunning explanation. "If Baahubali has collected 239.9 crores of "Share" so far from around the world including all the four languages of its release, then "Attarintiki Daredi" has collected 374.4 crores of share from Telugu version alone. Now tell which film is bigger than whom?" asked Pawan's fans. A little math is needed to understand their claim and here it goes.

In fact, two factors that are impossible for other regular commercial flicks is that "Baahubali" tickets are sold at higher prices in first week and then the film got magnanimous release on part with Bollywood biggies. Also it got released in four languages- Telugu, Tamil, Hindi and Malayalam at the same time. They say Baahubali is made with 250 crores and Attarintiki Daredi is made with 50 crores budget. So, to level the inflation, let us multiply Pawan's movie's final worldwide theatrical "share" of Telugu version, 74.88 crores, with 5 and then the total is 374.4 crores. So, far Baahubali Telugu version has collected somewhere around 160+ crores share from worldwide box office. 

This looks like a logical answer for people who are comparing Baahubali and Attarintiki Daredi. Anyway, Baahubali is a pride of Telugu cinema at any given day but that doesn't mean one should humiliate other films' collections.
