This Diwali season was a busy one at the Tollywood box office with as many as four Diwali releases hitting the big screens. Karthi’s Sardar, Vishwak Sen’s Ori Devuda, Sivakarthikeyan’s Prince, and Manchu Vishnu’s Ginna clashed at the box office.
Karthi’s Sardar received great responses in TN as well as Telugu states and the word of mouth and bookings for the weekend have been impressive. Directed by P.S. Mithran, Raashi Khanna and Rajisha Vijayan played lead roles opposite Karthi in heroines in this action thriller.
Ori Devuda also opened to positive reviews and Vishwak Sen and Mithila Palkar’s fresh pairing along with Venkatesh’s entertaining performance were hailed by all. It needs to perform strongly over the next couple of days to make headway toward hit status.
Prince starring Sivakarthikeyan emerged as a big opener in Tamil Nadu and has received a mixed response in Telugu states. The film needs a massive upswing especially in Telugu states to recover business.
Coming to the OTT premiers, the Diwali releases have secured digital deals long back and will be released on OTT platforms in the coming days. While Sardar and Ori Devuda will release on Aha, Prince will stream on Disney + Hotstar.
