Despite facing several challenges, including piracy concerns, Naga Chaitanya's latest film, Thandel, is performing decently at the box office.
While piracy had a noticeable impact, with the HD version being leaked on the very first day of its release, the film was also affected by its off-season release in February, with no holidays until now, except for Sundays.
Directed by Chandoo Mondeti, with Sai Pallavi playing the female lead, the film has achieved several milestones in its second weekend.
Thandel has crossed significant milestones, including $1 million in overseas earnings and a gross of 100+ crore worldwide.
Producer Bunny Vasu was confident about the movie, and his prediction of it grossing over 100 crore has turned out to be accurate.
The film has emerged as Naga Chaitanya’s highest-grossing project to date and is also his first solo 100-crore grosser.
Thandel has become a profitable venture for the distributors in the Telugu states, even before the second weekend.
Naga Chaitanya has put in his best efforts into the movie, and his hard work has paid off. Akkineni fans are thrilled with this success.
The movie is currently trending on BookMyShow, with outstanding booking numbers for Sunday.
