Bahubali 2: The Conclusion (Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, and Malayalam) has set a record in every state across India, barring Kerala.

Hindi: 510 crore

Dubbed: 10 crore (Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam from Mumbai, Delhi/UUP, East Punjab, Rajasthan, CP Berar, CI, West Bengal, Bihar, Assam, Odisha, and Marathwada)

Sachin Billion Dreams Highest Grossing Documentary Ever

Sachin - A Billion Dreams grossed 43 crore nett in Hindi Versions. These collections are excellent for what the film is which is basically a doco drama. No other documentary film has ever done business like this in the history of Hindi cinema.

There was Cinema Cinema in 1979 which did well initially but that was driven by faces of huge stars like Dharmendra, Hema Malini, Amitabh Bachchan and Zeenat Aman on the posters so the audience came in expecting the regular Hindi film when it was not.

Here it is the Sachin Tendulkar factor which has made the audience come in. The film has fared best in Mumbai and South. The film had a regional version in these areas with Marathi, Tamil and and Telegu but still the best collections have come in Mumbai, Mysore and Nizam / Andhra.

The business has basically come because of one reason and that is Sachin Tendulkar. Last year M.S. Dhoni - The Untold Story had taken a huge opening but that was a proper feature film which is not the case here.

The film is easily the highest grossing documentary ever as it beat the long standing record of Cinema Cinema (1979). That film had a distributor share of 33 lakhs across in India which would equate to around 70-75 lakhs nett. The 43 crore nett of Sachin - a Billion Dreams is higher than that film in terms of inflation adjusted figures also.

The film also released in Marathi, Tamil, Telugu and English. Film grossed around 8 Crore Nett in these versions combined.

Hindi Nett - 43,00,00,000 (Approx)
Other Versions Nett - 7,50,00,000 (Approx)
All India Nett - 50,50,00,000 (Approx)

The film has fetched a big price for a Documentary Genre so despite such good numbers for this genre movie is just AVERAGE Success.
