Thandel became a blockbuster hit after its release giving a major relief to Naga Chaitanya who needed this. The film also had a tremendous first-weekend performance at the box office. But, somehow, it failed to take a jump, as expected by the team, for the 2nd weekend. By the 2nd weekend, it was expected to go near the 100 crore gross.
But it has maintained a decent number on the 2nd weekend showing no big jump. Overall, for the 10 days, the film has collected around 82 crores gross worldwide and also earned a 45 crores share including the GST in Telugu States. The Theatrical rights are valued at 40 crores and the film has already become a box office success.
But now, reaching the 100 crore milestone looks tough with the film having no advantage of a public holiday in the first 10 days of its release. The film should maintain a decent collection this week till the Shiva Rathri festival which provides the jump to cross the 100 crores milestone. So, let’s wait and see.
