Excitement levels soared as fans eagerly awaited Mahesh Babu‘s comeback in Guntur Kaaram after a hiatus of one and a half years. With the festive season in full swing, the Tollywood and Kollywood industries are witnessing a fierce clash of releases. Amidst this chaos, let’s delve into the rollercoaster ride of Guntur Kaaram’s box office advance booking for its much-anticipated Day 1.
High Hopes Dashed?
Guntur Kaaram kickstarted its journey with a bang during the initial rounds of advance bookings, crossing the 60-lakh mark within the first few hours. However, the momentum has hit a roadblock, with the latest update revealing a modest Rs 1.70 crore gross in India, including over 74,000 tickets. The snag? Unallotted shows are caught amid a release date tussle among multiple films.
Sarkaru Vaari Paata’s Shadow Looms Large
Comparisons with Mahesh Babu’s previous blockbuster, Sarkaru Vaari Paata, add an intriguing twist to Guntur Kaaram’s tale. The opening day advance booking for Sarkaru Vaari Paata closed at a whopping 20 crores gross (excluding blocked seats). Thus leaving Guntur Kaaram trailing by a considerable Rs 18.30 crores gross—amounting to a 91.5% difference. With just two days left until release, catching up to its predecessor seems like a daunting task.
Overseas Glory Beckons
Despite the domestic setback, Guntur Kaaram is set to shine on the international stage. Pre-sales in the overseas market have also been robust, with the film already raking in a stellar 10 crore gross for the opening day, including premieres. North America leads the charge among all territories, promising a rocking start beyond borders.
The Road Ahead
The domestic box office battle intensifies as the countdown to Guntur Kaaram’s release continues. Can the film overcome the pre-sales setback and create magic on the big screen? The answer lies in the hands of the audience, eagerly anticipating Mahesh Babu’s return to the silver screen after a cinematic hiatus. Stay tuned for more updates on the highs. And the lows of Guntur Kaaram’s theatrical journey! Amid the box office drama, Guntur Kaaram stands at a crossroads, with fans holding their breath for the much-anticipated spectacle. Will the film’s overseas triumph pave the way for a domestic resurgence? Or is it a tale of two contrasting worlds? The cinematic canvas awaits its verdict.
