Telugu cinema has seen unprecedented success in North America. Several Telugu blockbusters are setting massive box office records. Interestingly, pan-Indian star Prabhas holds a remarkable four out of the top five spots on the region's list of highest-grossing Telugu movies. As fans eagerly await Pushpa 2: The Rule, starring Allu Arjun, many wonder if this highly anticipated sequel can break into the coveted list.

The following is the list of the top five movies.

1. Baahubali 2: The Conclusion – $20.7M

Prabhas’ magnum opus, Baahubali 2, remains the undisputed king of the Telugu box office in North America. Directed by S.S. Rajamouli, this epic saga shattered global records and still reigns supreme years after its release.

2. Kalki 2898 AD – $18.5M

Prabhas’ futuristic sci-fi thriller Kalki 2898 AD, helmed by Nag Ashwin, took the box office by storm with its gripping storyline and cutting-edge visuals. Its performance has further cemented Prabhas’ dominance in international markets.

3. RRR – $15.3M

S.S. Rajamouli’s RRR is another monumental success, starring Ram Charan and Jr. NTR. This historical action epic earned global acclaim, scoring big at international award shows and making waves in North America.

4. Salaar – $8.9M

Prabhas' Salaar, directed by Prashanth Neel of KGF fame, saw a thunderous response from audiences. Its gripping narrative and intense action helped it secure the fourth spot on this prestigious list.

5. Baahubali: The Beginning – $8.4M

The film that started it all, Baahubali: The Beginning, introduced the epic world of Mahishmati. Its massive success laid the foundation for its sequel’s record-breaking run.

With Pushpa: The Rise becoming a pan-Indian sensation, expectations for Pushpa 2: The Rule are sky-high. With its cult following, Allu Arjun's global popularity, and Sukumar's masterful direction, Pushpa 2 has every chance of surpassing Salaar and Baahubali: The Beginning to claim a spot in the top five.

Industry analysts predict that with proper marketing and an expanded release strategy, Pushpa 2 could even challenge RRR’s third-place position, given the franchise's immense fan base and the heightened anticipation built by its iconic dialogue, music, and action sequences.
