Samantha's 'Maa Inti Bangaram' dealt a blow to Peddi
'Peddi' started off well at the box office. It had good collections in the first and second weeks. But from the third week, the collections dropped. Samantha's film 'Maa Inti Bangaram' released at the same time, which was a big blow for 'Peddi'. The movie has now almost finished its theatrical run. It's running in less than 10 theatres with just one show a day.
The movie 'Peddi' has completed 35 days in theatres. According to a Sacnilk report, the film has collected a total of ₹341 crore so far. Out of this, the India gross collection is ₹288 crore, while the net collection is ₹243.83 crore. It earned ₹53 crore overseas. The film needed ₹220 crore to break even but only earned a share of ₹170 crore. So, it fell short by ₹50 crore and will end with that much loss.
