Mad Square takes a superb start at the box office. The film had good advance bookings for its opening day before release and opened with decent word of mouth (WOM) and reviews. At the same time, it received better WOM than competing releases. Due to this and already being the most hyped film among the competition, the film witnessed very good occupancies and houseful shows throughout the day. Night shows registered massive occupancy. Area-wise Day 1 box office collections:

Naga Vamsi overcomes the competition

Tollywood Production House, Sithara Entertainments headed by Naga Vamsi has become the No.1 Production House of the Film Industry. Most of the films they produced have offered good content and became successful at the box office as well. Naga Vamsi also made himself the most talked about Producer in the recent times.

But one thing that hurt the Production House the most was the competition from other films. Last year during the Sankranthi Season, Hanuman badly impacted the prospects of Guntur Kaaram produced by Sithara Entertainments. Lucky Baskhar which had a great content was also affected by the good run of KA and Amaran. Surprisingly, this year, their Daaku Maharaaj starring Balakrishna was also ruined by Sankranthiki Vasthunam which became the biggest blockbuster.

The three films performed well at the box office but could not achieve a much bigger range due to competition. But now their recent film, MAD Square has rocked the box office emerging as the winner even facing the competition from L2: Empuraan and Robinhood. MAD Square registered terrific openings and is also poised to have a sensational festival weekend. It also made the clash one-sided and audience choice has also become MAD Square first now.

Empuraan Enters 100 Cr Club in Record Time

After a record-breaking 68 Cr start at the global box office, Mohanlal’s Empuraan shows a super hold despite mixed reviews. It is widely known that the film had an immense hype before the release. Empuraan enters the 100 Cr Club in record time.

Empuraan: 100 Crores in Two Days

The Malayalam version continues to perform very strongly, as it crosses the 100 Cr club on day 2, which makes it the fastest film ever to do so for Mollywood. The previous best was Prithviraj Sukumaran’s Aadu Jeevitham, which achieved the feat in 9 days.

Empuraan: 3rd 100 Crore Grosser for Mohanlal

Mohanlal’s Empuraan enters the 100 Cr Club within record time. If it had received positive WOM, then the numbers would have been superb in other languages as well.

L2E is the 3rd 100 Cr film for Mohanlal after Puli Murugan and Lucifer, the most by any Mollywood hero. The film’s advances for day 3 are even better than day 2, and the movie is set for a rampage weekend at the box office.

Robinhood Day 1 Box Office Trends: Poor Start

Nithin and Venky Kudumula’s Robinhood was released in theaters today, and it failed to receive positive responses from audiences and critics. Robinhood Day 1 Box Office trends are off to a poor start.

The team did a lot of promotions before the release, but nothing added to the film’s buzz, and a bad release date killed the film on the opening day itself. The film was made on a very big budget of 70 Cr, and theatrically, for producers, it has to recover 40 Cr share to become a profitable project.

Robinhood Box Office: Poor Collections on Day 1

But Nithin’s Robinhood Day 1, Box Office trends indicate a poor start, as it just collected around 4.5 Cr gross, which is a shocking start for the film. And the day 2 advances are even lower than day 1, which means the film is heading towards a big failure.

We need to see whether the film can put some numbers on Ugadi and Ramzan holidays and provide some relief for buyers. If there is no jump on those days, then the buyers will lose more than 3/4 of the invested amounts.

MAD Square Day 1 Box Office Trends: Sensational Start

MAD Square is off to a mind-blowing start at the box office. The film is made as a sequel to the superhit movie MAD (2023), and because of that, it produced a huge craze among audiences. MAD Square Day 1 Box Office trends indicate a sensational start.

MAD Square Box Office: Beyond Expectations in Hyderabad and the USA

Especially in Hyderabad City and the USA, the film goes on a rampage mode and shocks the trade circles. MAD’s 1st part collected around 20 Cr gross worldwide, and the sequel’s opening day collections will itself be closer to that number.

Similarly, last year Tillu Square also did the same by collecting almost the closing collections of DJ Tillu on the 1st day itself. MAD Square Day 1 Box Office trends indicate a sensational start.

MAD Square Day 1 Estimates are Huge

The first day’s early estimates of the film’s collections are in the range of 17 Cr gross, which is a sensational start. The breakeven gross is valued at 45 Cr, and the film recovered almost 40% on the opening day itself, and Day 2 advances are on par with Day 1.

So, Kalyan Shankar’s hilarious sequel is all set to achieve the breakeven by Sunday itself, which will be a truly massive feat.

Robinhood Movie Review: Only For a Few Laughs

Movie Name: Robinhood
Rating: 2.5/5
Cast: Nithin, Sree Leela, Rajendra Prasad, Aadukalam Naren and others
Director: Venky Kudumula
Produced By: Mythri Movie Makers
Release Date: 28th March 2025

Nithin and Venky Kudumula’s second movie, Robinhood, is in theaters today. The lead actress, Sreeleela, stars in the film, which includes a special appearance by Australian cricketer David Warner. In our review, we will find out whether Venky Kudumula repeated his magic of Chalo and Bhesshma.

Story:

As a young orphan, Ram (Nithin) witnesses the struggles of his fellow orphans who are suffering from hunger. This motivates him to come up with smart plans to steal money from the rich/corrupt persons, which he then shares with those in need. At the same time, a cruel villain, Saamy (Devadatta Nage), is looking to grow his illegal marijuana business on a global scale. He discovers that a special type of marijuana from Rudrakonda village is in high demand. 

Meanwhile, Reena Vasudev (Sreeleela) is on her way to Rudrakonda. What connection does Saamy have with Abhinav Vasudev (Sijju), the head of AV Pharma (Reena’s father) in Australia? Why does Ram decide to join her as a security guard? And how does the drug lord David (David Warner) play a role in this story? The rest of the film answers all the questions.

Performances:

Nithin does a fine job in the titular role. He was impressive in action scenes. Sreeleela gets a chance to do comedy in a few scenes, and she is okay. She looks gorgeous in songs. Vennela Kishore and Rajendra Prasad produce laughs whenever they get an opportunity. Devadutta Nage is okay as the main villain. Shine Tom Chacko, Aadukalam Naren, Lal, Subhalekha Sudhakar, and others are okay.

Analysis:

Director Venky Kudumula is known for making hilarious entertainers with simple plots and emotions. With Robinhood, he tries to move into the action/commercial side. The story is quite predictable, and the way Venky narrated the film is disappointing.

When you make a movie with formulaic elements, all the parts should align perfectly and produce a proper entertainment value to the audiences. But Robinhood fails to do so. There are a few hilarious moments by Vennela Kishore and Rajendra Prasad in the first half which makes it passable despite the main track of the lead being weak.

The interval episode is not so great but post interval, one expects things to change. However, the narration continues to fail in the latter half and picks up only in a few places. Like in many movies, the villain, initially portrayed as a powerful character, becomes a weak figure by the climax, which is disappointing. 

Moreover, the humor that is effective in the first half disappears in the second half, but a few emotional scenes near the pre climax and the key revelation about hero’s character work well, though not great. The most hyped cameo of Cricketer David Warner also falls flat, as it arrives in a silly manner. 

Positives:

  • Comedy Scenes in the First Half
  • Few Crucial Scenes/Dialogues
  • Sreeeleela’s Glamour

Negatives:

  • Weak Second Half
  • Dull Parts
  • Improper situations for Songs

Robindhood Movie Review and Verdict:

Nithin and Venky Kudumula’s Robinhood works only for a few laughs along with a few action/sentiment blocks and good production values. The film fails to engage thoroughly and remains as an ordinary film.

MAD Square Movie Review: A Fun Ride With a Few Boring Parts

Movie Name: MAD Square
Rating: 2.75/5
Cast: Narne Nithiin, Sangeeth Shobhan, Ram Nithin and Vishnu Oi
Director: Kalyan Shankar
Produced By: Haarika Suryadevara
Release Date: 28th March 2025

MAD Square, the follow-up to the hit comedy MAD (2023), has created a huge buzz among viewers. The film’s teaser and trailer have been very effective, complemented by a popular song, Swathi Reddy. Let’s find out whether the film is as hilarious as it intended.

Story:

Manoj (Ram Nithin), Ashok (Nithin Narne), and Damodar -DD (Sangeeth Shobhan), arrive at wedding their best friend Laddu (Vishnu Oi). The rest of the story highlights the Friends gang’s chaotic and funny adventures.

Performances:

Sangeeth Sobhan, Narne Nithiin, and Ram Nithin engage audiences effectively, with Sangeeth shining brightly due to his impressive energy in key moments. Vishnu Oi excels as Laddu, making his struggles and frustrated reactions entertaining for viewers. Muralidhar Goud shines as his father, bringing humor with perfect comedic timing. Sunil, as Bhai, fails to make a mark, except for a few with Muralidhar Goud. Supporting characters like Antony and Satyam Rajesh were not utilized properly.

Analysis:

MAD Square is a lighthearted coming-of-age comedy that delivers a fair share of laughs. The film lacks a strong plot but excels in entertaining moments and the chemistry among Sangeeth Sobhan, Narne Nithiin, Ram Nithin, and Vishnu Oi.The movie includes well-done comedic moments, notably at Laddu’s wedding in the first half. Some points in the second half shine, such as Suneel and Muralidhar Goud’s interactions.

As said by the producers of MAD Sequel, the film features minimal story, but the real issue is the inconsistency in providing laughs. Some jokes fail to impress, making the humor feel unnatural at times. A significant twist occurs at the climax, yet it fails to resonate. The film does not have the entertaining vibe and catchy tunes present in the original.

Positives:

  • Energetic Performances from the Lead Cast
  • Fun Episodes
  • Swathi Reddy Song

Negatives:

  • Repetitive/Forced Humor
  • Boring Moments
  • Music

MAD Square Movie Review and Verdict:

Director Kalyan Shankar intends to make a fun sequel with MAD Square, yet misses the mark slightly. The film has enough fun moments, to entertain along with boring parts. All the lead actors perform well in the film.
