The movie completed six days at the box office, earning ₹1.70 crore on its sixth day. This is a 17% drop compared to day 5, but the numbers are still considered steady for a weekday. However, this drop is a bit surprising since the film got blockbuster talk and positive reviews. Everyone thought it was on its way to the ₹100 crore club, but now it looks like it might stop around the ₹50 crore mark.

Varun Tej's film is running in profit

The film's budget was ₹38 crore, and it already made back ₹26 crore from non-theatrical rights. This means it only needed to hit a break-even target of ₹12 crore from theatres. With a share of around ₹14 crore already in the bag, the movie is officially profitable. Any money it makes from Monday onwards is pure profit. Interestingly, the film's team had announced a collection of ₹37 crore in just three days. Going by their numbers, the total collection should be around ₹45 crore by now.
