According to reports Baby John did well on its opening day at the box office earning Rs 12.50 crore. This is a strong start for the film especially considering it was released on Christmas Day a holiday that often brings in a good number of viewers. However the film faced tough competition from Pushpa 2 the sequel to Allu Arjun’s blockbuster hit Pushpa: The Rise. Pushpa 2 was released earlier on December 5 and continued to show impressive box office performance even after weeks in theaters. Baby John vs Pushpa 2 on Christmas day On Christmas Day Pushpa 2 earned a massive Rs 16.82 crore proving that it still holds a strong position at the box office. Despite being released earlier Pushpa 2 continues to dominate drawing huge numbers and ensuring its success.
