Another major box-office milestone for Indian cinema, as actor Yash joins Prabhas in an elite club of stars whose films have consistently delivered massive opening-day collections.
With "KGF: Chapter 2" (2022), "Toxic" (2026) and "Ramayana" (2026), Yash has achieved three consecutive worldwide opening days of more than ₹100 crore. He has become the second Indian actor to reach this milestone, after Prabhas.
Prabhas was the first to achieve this feat with "Adipurush" (2023), "Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire" (2023) and "Kalki 2898 AD" (2024). His films recorded opening-day worldwide grosses of approximately ₹127.5 crore, ₹158.1 crore and ₹177.7 crore, respectively.
Yash's three films have also delivered impressive numbers. "KGF: Chapter 2" opened with an estimated worldwide gross of ₹164 crore, while "Toxic" collected around ₹144 crore and "Ramayana" approximately ₹155 crore on their opening days.
However, the comparison between the two actors gets more interesting when we consider different box-office evaluations. The key distinction is between worldwide gross and India net collections.
Prabhas has established himself as one of Indian cinema's biggest global box-office attractions. His success is not limited to India; his films have performed strongly in overseas markets as well.
Apart from his three consecutive ₹100 crore-plus openers, Prabhas has delivered several other massive openings. Films such as "Baahubali 2", "Saaho", "Adipurush", "Salaar", "Kalki 2898 AD" and "The Raja Saab" have all crossed the ₹100 crore worldwide opening-day mark, per trade figures.
Prabhas also extended his consecutive opening-day streak with "The Raja Saab", which reportedly earned around ₹100.6 crore worldwide on its first day. This gave him four consecutive releases with worldwide opening-day collections above ₹100 crore, beginning with "Adipurush".
While Prabhas has the upper hand in worldwide opening numbers, Yash has a remarkable achievement in domestic collections. India net collections refer to the money a film earns within India after entertainment taxes are deducted. This is different from worldwide gross, which includes earnings from both Indian and international markets.
Reported figures show that "KGF: Chapter 2" earned approximately ₹116 crore in India net collections on its opening day, while "Toxic" reportedly collected around ₹101.1 crore. "Ramayana" has also been included in claims about Yash's consecutive ₹100 crore-plus opening-day record.
This has led to Yash being celebrated as the first actor to achieve three consecutive ₹100 crore-plus India net opening days. However, such claims should be assessed using verified domestic collection figures and consistent trade-tracking methods.
Ultimately, both actors have set impressive benchmarks for Indian cinema. Prabhas leads in the scale and consistency of worldwide opening collections, while Yash's reported domestic net figures highlight his extraordinary box-office strength in India. Their achievements show how Indian films are increasingly attracting huge audiences from the very first day of release, both at home and across international markets.
While their records differ in the financial measurements used, one thing is clear: Yash and Prabhas remain two of the biggest box-office forces in Indian cinema.
