Four films were released for the Diwali Telugu box office: Dude, Telusu Kada, K-Ramp, and Mithra Mandali. K-Ramp, starring Kiran Abbavaram, emerged as the Diwali winner, beating his competitors.
Mithra Mandali was the 1st one to be released of the four movies, and the team even screened paid premieres. As it opened with disastrous word of mouth and reviews, it became an outright disaster.
Telusu Kada received an average WOM from urban audiences and a poor one from mass audiences. The box office numbers reflect the same; some numbers are urban and disastrous in mass belts. Overall, it is also a failure.
Dude, which is the craziest release in Diwali? It opened very strongly but lost momentum after that. For the business value, the film is likely to end up as an above-average venture.
As said above, Kiran Abbavaram’s K-Ramp emerges as the Diwali winner, which is the last release in Diwali, starts with below-par-average collections, picks up the momentum slowly, and becomes the number one preference for audiences.
The film made more than 20 Cr worldwide in 9 days and is a profitable venture for all involved parties, and also the biggest grosser in Diwali releases for Telugu Version, emerging as a clear box office winner.
