It's hardly even necessary to guess what it is that has every Indian going wild over theatres right now. RRR is directed by SS Rajamouli and stars Ram Charan, Jr NTR, Alia Bhatt, and Ajay Devgn in pivotal roles. The film has had a fantastic start, with first-day figures that are nothing short of miraculous. To top it all off, Rajamouli's latest film has outperformed his previous release, Prabhas' Baahubali 2 in all languages.

As of present, RRR's day one international box office total stands at an astonishing 223 crores in all languages. If these figures hold true, Rajamouli's latest film will break his own box office record for the highest opening of all time.

223 crores! No, these aren't a film's lifetime earnings or a film's first weekend earnings; rather, they are an early estimate of what RRR has made in a single day. Yes, you read that correctly. Single-day. SS Rajamouli is a man who enjoys breaking his own records, and he has done it yet again. RRR has comfortably surpassed Baahubali 2's day one box office total (all languages), which still stands at a mammoth 217 crores.

RRR's numbers are crazy, especially given that its Hindi belt has yet to perform to its full potential. Imagine if the Hindi version also earns 35-40 crores in a single day, setting yet another record for the highest single day at the box office.

In terms of all-India openings (all languages), only SS Rajamouli stands at the top of the charts. His Baahubali 2 is the highest-grossing film, grossing 121 crores on its first day. Saaho is in second place, having earned 88 crores on day one. 2.0 (63 crores), War (53.35 crores), and Thugs Of Hindostan (52.25 crores) are the third, fourth, and fifth highest-grossing films, respectively. It's all about the top three spots for RRR, and who knows, it might even outperform Baahubali's numbers.

And it appears that SS Rajamouli will rewrite history once more with RRR.
