Deepika Padukone, the renowned Bollywood actress, has solidified her position as a pan-Indian superstar with the resounding success of her Tollywood debut, “Kalki 2898 AD.” The film’s massive box office collection has not only secured its place as a blockbuster but has also paved the way for a sequel, ensuring her continued dominance in the industry. However, Deepika’s journey is poised to reach an unprecedented milestone that no other actress has achieved.
Since her Bollywood debut in 2007, Deepika has consistently delivered exceptional performances, earning critical acclaim and commercial success. Despite the challenges inherent in a long-standing career, including marriage, she has maintained her top-tier status in the industry. The true measure of her impact lies in the staggering total gross of her hit films. According to reports, her filmography boasts blockbusters like “Kalki 1055 crores,” “Jawan 1143 crores,” “Pathan 1060 crores,” “Chennai Express 422 crores,” “Ae Dil Hai Mushkil 318 crores,” and “Bajirao Mastani 367 crores.”
Beyond her Hindi hits, Deepika’s Hollywood film “Triple X: Return of Xander Cage” grossed an impressive 2300 crores worldwide. When combined, her total earnings exceed 9808 crores, placing her on the cusp of achieving a historic milestone of 10,000 crores. What makes this achievement even more extraordinary is that no other actress has come close to this figure. With several more years of her career ahead and the potential for more pan-Indian projects, it is not unreasonable to expect her total earnings to surpass 15,000 crores.
As Deepika prepares for the second part of “Kalki 2898 AD,” she is currently taking a well-deserved break due to her pregnancy. While the shooting schedule for the film remains uncertain, Deepika is expected to return to work after her maternity leave, focusing on her upcoming commitments, including the highly anticipated “Singham” franchise. Her remarkable journey serves as an inspiration to aspiring actors and a testament to her talent, dedication, and versatility.
