0

Kiran Abbavaram’s ‘Dilruba’, failed to keep the momentum following the huge success of ‘KA’. Before the film’s release, the movie team was confident in its success and even scheduled premieres. However, from its first showing, ‘Dilruba’ garnered unfavorable reviews and terrible word of mouth, which had a considerable impact on its box office results.

The film made a disappointing ₹1.1 crore on its first day, including premieres. Collections continued to drop over the weekend, rather than increasing. Day 2 collections dropped than the first day, and Day 3 saw tremendous decline, indicating lack of public engagement.

After the first weekend, ‘Dilruba’ earned only ₹2.25 crore gross, with a share of less than ₹1 crore. Given this tendency, these figures are expected to be the film’s final box office total, representing a significant setback for Kiran Abbavaram.

This failure is in stark contrast to the smash triumph of ‘KA’. The bad reception and mediocre collections indicate that ‘Dilruba’ failed to connect with moviegoers, underlining the box office’s unpredictability. Kiran Abbavaram will now have to reconsider his plans for future projects.
