Following a fantastic opening weekend at the box office, Kantara Chapter 1 is maintaining strong performance on weekdays in Telugu states. The film requires a consistent run to recover the valued business, and it seems to be on the right track.
For 6 days, the spiritual action drama has collected around 68 Cr gross and around 46-47 Cr share, including GST in Nizam and Andhra. The film has been released on an advance basis, and for the valued business, the film needs to collect an 80 Cr share in Telugu states.
Overall, Kantara Chapter 1’s Telugu state collections are going on a consistent note at the box office, and the film will join the 50 Cr share club today or tomorrow. So far, 2.0, KGF 2, and Jailer are the only three dubbed films to have collected a 50 Cr share in the Telugu states, and now Rishab Shetty’s Kantara prequel is set to join this elite club.
With a 70 Cr gross collection in 6 days, the film is certainly on track for a 100 Cr collection. But for the film’s valued business, it needs to collect much more and should aim for at least over 125 Cr gross in its full run.
Produced by Hombale Films, the spiritual action drama is expected to have a huge 2nd weekend, as there are no notable releases this week, and the 3rd weekend will have the advantage of the Diwali festival.
