Monday box office performance plays a pivotal role in determining the long-term success of any film, as the footfall on this day often sets the tone for its overall trajectory.
In this case, Thandel starring Naga Chaitanya has passed this crucial test with flying colors, registering an amazing 73.12K ticket sales on BookMyShow.
Directed by Chandoo Mondeti, the film is set to cross the noteworthy milestone of 10 million ticket sales in the Telugu states, and it is fast approaching this feat.
With the Valentine’s weekend just around the corner, Thandel, which has already earned 73.20 crore+, is expected to hit the 100 crore mark by the end of its second weekend.
Piracy had a huge impact on the box office performance; without it, the collections would have been much stronger.
Since its release, the movie featuring Sai Pallavi as the female lead has been enjoying a steady stream of positive word-of-mouth, helping it rake in considerable revenue.
Produced by Geetha Arts, Thandel is now inching closer to the breakeven point, and it is expected to cross that threshold within a day or two.
