Tollywood’s Box Office Results for Q1 2024

0

The first quarter at the Tollywood box office was a disappointing one. Small films like Hanuman performed exceptionally well while big star movies like Guntur Kaaram couldn’t stand up to the hype.

Unlike the Malayalam industry which has delivered four massive blockbusters in just three months, Tollywood has witnessed only a couple of blockbusters in Hanuman and Tillu Square. Here’s a Tollywood box office report of films that were released in the first quarter and their performance.

Tollywood January Releases

Guntur Kaaram: Above Average
Hanuman : Sensational Blockbuster
Saindhav: Disaster
Naa Saami Ranga : Hit

Tollywood February Releases

Ambaji Peta Marriage Band : Average
Yatra2 : Disaster
Eagle : Disaster
True lover [Dub] : Disaster
Lal salaam [Dub] : Disaster
Ooru Peru Bhairavakona: Above Average
Sundaram Master : Disaster

Tollywood March Releases


Chari 111: Disaster
Operation Valentine: Disaster
Vyooham : Disaster
Bhimaa : Disaster
Gaami : Hit
Razakar : Disaster
Premalu [Dub] : Blockbuster
Om Bheem Bush : Flop
Tillu square : Blockbuster

In the coming months, we will have several big star movie releases including Prabhas’ Kalki, NTR’s Devara, Allu Arjun’s Pushpa and Pawan Kalyan’s OG among others. It needs to be seen what kind of impact these films along with several other releases make as the year progresses.

Tillu Square total 1st weekend worldwide Box office collections

0

Tillu Square starring Siddhu Jonnalagadda and Anupama Parameswaran has opened to a phenomenal start. The film carried good hype before its release and performed accordingly as well. This is a sequel to the blockbuster DJ Tillu. Tillu Square’s total first weekend worldwide Box office collections stand as below:

Tillu Square had a sensational weekend in all the territories. Most of the territories achieved the breakeven mark by the weekend itself. Few will do it by today or tomorrow. In Nizam, the film has collected a share of 10.5 crores. In Ceded, it is 2.85 and in the Coastal belt of AP, the share is around 7.6 crores. This would take the total share to an approx. 20.95 crores in Telugu States. This would be 24.5 crores if GST is included. The rest of India’s share would be around 2.25 crores. The film has already breached the $2M mark in the US and the share will be around 8.7 crores there.

The total worldwide share of the film will be approx. 31.9 crores. Including GST would take that to 35.15 crores. This is a sensational run for the film. If another weekend promises the same numbers, the film may well touch the 50 crores share mark and even the 100 crores gross mark worldwide too. The film has already created a milestone for Tier 2 range films.

Tillu Square creates a new milestone for Tier -2 range films

0

Recently released Tollywood film, Tillu Square has created a new milestone for a Tier 2 range film category. The film has gone close to a gross of 45 crores worldwide. This is indeed a great achievement for lead actor, Siddhu Jonnalagadda and the team as well.

When the Tillu Square trailer was released, everyone was doubtful about its result. Many thought that it might not match up to its prequel’s magic and success. The trailer looked repetitive and boring as well. The Lead Actor Siddhu Jonnalagadda expressed confidence saying that what they showed in the trailer was just a sample. His words have come true now. The film collected a share of around 7 crores in Telugu states on Day 2 which is a record for any Tier 2 film. Earlier Uppena held this record. Uppena starred a Mega hero which fetched that much number. Dasara was projected as a Pan India film hence the collection. But Tillu Square with no Pan India film budget or making managed to cross these films which is surely a new milestone.

If the same momentum continues, the film may even cross the collections of Dasara. The team is enjoying the success and has already announced another film in the franchise, Tillu Cube. This was even shown in the film during the climax. Let’s see what wonders that would create.

0

Tollywood Actor Vijay Deverakonda shared few insights about his working style and mindset in accepting films. He was talking about these during the press meet fo his upcoming film, Family Star. However his words seemed meaningless when he talked about Debut Directors.

Vijay Deverakonda while answering to a question about encouraging debut directors said that he was not interested in Debutants. He said he wants directors who are experienced in pulling off tasks which include proper budget planning and large scale filming. He said that he needs atleast one or two films directors to bring them on board for his film.

This didn’t go well with audiences and some section of people as they feel Vijay Deverakonda too was once a debtutant. The directors he worked with during his initial days were Debutants mainly Sandeep Reddy Vanga who gave him a lifetime asset, Arjun Reddy. Vijay got a nationwide recognition with this film which was directed by a debutant. Its very sad for him to forget and disregard the talent of Debutants. It became clear with his words that he may not work with a debutant in near future. All his films are already either planned as Pan India films or big budgeted flicks. His Family Star is slated for release this April 5th.
