Dangal grossed Rs 1,501 crore till now, among which Rs 731.36 crore is from China and Rs 25.78 crore is from Taiwan, according to movie trade analyst Ramesh Bala. In the Chinese box office charts, Dangal has dethroned Guardians of the Galaxy-2 in China in the second week and continues to be at the top since then.
Before the China and Taiwan release, Dangal's worldwide gross was around Rs 744 crore and Rs 387 crore net in India — excluding dubbed versions it was Rs 375 crore.
Dangal is very likely to cross Baahubali-2's worldwide gross collections soon as Baahubali's theatrical run is slowing down in most areas. Baahubali-2's worldwide collections stand at Rs 1,565 crore till Sunday and India collections stand at Rs 988 crore net, according to Ramesh Bala.
However, Dangal's brilliant run can be challenged once the "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales", the fifth movie from the popular franchise, releases in China next Friday.
It is also notable that Prabhas-starrer Baahubali-2 is yet to release in China. But, the first part wasn't successful in that country earlier. However, Baahubali's producer Shobhu Yarlagadda made clear on several occasions that he intends to release the film with a proper strategy this time in China, Japan, Taiwan, Latin American countries, among others.
Both the parts of Baahubali are being screened at the Cannes Film Festival. The first part's screening was on 20 May and the second part's screening is on 21 May. This is being seen as a marketing strategy by the film's team before its release in other countries.
