Kantara Chapter 1 becomes 16th film to 500 Cr gross in India

Kantara Chapter 1 has joined the 500 Cr club in India by today, becoming the 16th film to do so. On its 11th day, the worldwide gross reached the 600 Cr range. The film is having a fantastic run at the box office. 

Films that have grossed 500 Cr in India

  1. Baahubali (2015)
  2. Dangal (2016)
  3. Baahubali2 (2017)
  4. 2PointO (2018)
  5. RRR (2022)
  6. KGF2 (2022)
  7. Pathaan (2023)
  8. Gadar2 (2023)
  9. Jawan (2023)
  10. Animal (2023)
  11. Salaar (2023)
  12. Kalki 2898 AD (2024)
  13. Stree 2 (2024)
  14. Pushpa 2 (2024)
  15. Chhaava (2025)
  16. Kantara Chapter 1 (2025)

Prabhas leads the list with 4 films, while in directors, Rajamouli is leading with 3 films.

The pre-release buzz was somewhat underwhelming for a sequel movie, and the reason for a mid buzz is the team’s low-profile promotions. If the production house, Hombale Films, had released proper promotional content, like songs and mini teasers, it would have had solid buzz.

Nevertheless, Rishab Shetty’s spiritual action drama Kantara Chapter 1 is emerging as one of the massive blockbusters, as it became the 16th film to cross the 500 Cr gross mark in India.

The trade expects the film to utilize the Diwali festival days and mint as much money as it can.

Dhanush Signs a Historical Epic

Recently, Dhanush released Idli Kadai, achieving moderate numbers in Tamil and almost none in Telugu. The news is that Dhanush will star in a historic epic by Mari Selvaraj.

Bison, directed by Mari Selvaraj and starring Dhruv Vikram, will release on Diwali, October 17, in Tamil and October 24 in Telugu.

Mari Selvaraj’s next film will be with Dhanush, set under a historical backdrop, and the story was narrated to the actor a long time ago.

The VIP actor was initially set to produce it himself. But now, the project will be produced by Vels Films International. The film’s work will begin soon, and they planned it as a grand, big-budget historical drama.

The actor-director combination joined hands before for a sensational blockbuster, Karnan, and is set for a much bigger film next.

Andhra King Taluka: A Refreshing Treat for Youth

Ram Pothineni and P. Mahesh Babu’s Andhra King Taluka teaser has been released today, and it looks impressive. The video gives a short yet sweet hint about the film’s story.

It’s a complete transformation for Ram, who looks cool and charming in a boy-next-door character. His chemistry with Bhagyashri lights up the screen, making this one a delightful watch backed by the soulful tunes of Vivek and Mervin.

The last dialogue of the Andhra King Taluka teaser hits hard as it tells the harsh truth about movies and heroes, fans. Now all signs point to a winner on November 28.

Nowadays, big heroes and even tier-2 heroes are taking on larger-than-life roles. The audiences are missing regular entertainers and hero characters who they can relate to.

Finally, Ram is coming up with a film that features a regular teenager, along with cinema, love, and fights.

Hanuman Missed It: OG Too

Pawan Kalyan’s OG is entering its last leg of the theatrical run, but the film is most likely to miss the 300 Cr gross point, just like Teja Sajja’s HanuMan.

Released on Sankranti 2024, Teja Sajja and Prasanth Varma’s HanuMan, the sensational blockbuster, collected 294 Cr gross in its full run, and it came very close to the 300 Cr mark but missed the milestone.

Now Pawan Kalyan’s OG is running in its 3rd weekend at the box office, and the film’s worldwide gross is around 285 Cr. Even though next weekend has the advantage of Diwali, there are many films set to release on the weekend.

Dude, K-Ramp, Mitra Mandali, and Telusu Kada are releasing for Diwali, and Kantara Chapter 1 is already running with better occupancies than Sujeeth’s film.

So, collecting 15 Cr from here might be a very tough task for OG, and it is most likely to end up like Hanuman with around 295 Cr closing. If Diwali releases fail to impress audiences, then there is an outside chance for the film to achieve the 300 Cr, but it’s a hard task.

OG Box Office Update: Dil Raju Confirms Nizam Breakeven

Pawan Kalyan’s OG Nizam rights were bought by Dil Raju for a record price in the actor’s career, which achieved breakeven. Track Tollywood also reported that OG is a safe venture for Dil Raju.

Kantara Chapter 1 Day 10: Absolute Rampage at the Box Office

Kantara Chapter 1 sees a massive jump on its second Saturday, which is beyond everyone’s expectations. The spiritual action drama directed and led by Rishab Shetty is showing superb consistency at the box office. 

The film saw 200% growth over Friday and Saturday in most territories. It saw a range of 50 Cr gross collections, which takes the total gross to more than 550 Cr for 10 days.

There were initial expectations that the film could do 600 Cr gross in its full run, but now it is expected to achieve it by the 2nd weekend itself. 

Kantara Chapter 1 Box Office: 700 Cr Full Run Expectations

Rishab Shetty’s Kantara Chapter 1 collects over 550 Cr in 10 days with an extraordinary jump on the second Saturday, and with this trend, 700 Cr is a sure shot. 

The next weekend is Diwali weekend. If the film holds strong collections for that weekend, it can even chase Chhaava’s lifetime collections and become the no. 1 grosser of the year.

Budget Crunch Hits Nithin – Actor Forced to Take a Break

Hero Nithin is going through a very tough phase in his career with continuous failures, and this year makes it even worse, as his two biggest budget films, Robinhood under Mythri, Thammudu, under Dil Raju, joined the biggest disasters ever for Tollywood.

Even if we combine both films’ share, the total is a single-digit gross collection. These stats say how big disasters Robinhood and Thammudu are.

According to the plan, Nithin was all set to start Yellamma immediately under Dil Raju production, directed after Thammudu, and next a big span film with Vikram Kumar. Now, neither film is going on floors because of budget issues.

The OTT market is already down, and Nithin is facing a tough phase and a huge downfall at the theatres. Makers are not ready to spend big budgets on the actor now.

With this, Nithin is yet to start his next film, and he has to come up with entertainers with medium budgets to get back on track.
