Needs Just 4.95 Crores To Be Nandamuri Balakrishna’s 3rd Highest-Grosser, Still An Underperformer
Nandamuri Balakrishna’s Daaku Maharaaj kicked off its theatrical journey on a solid note, but eventually, it slowed down at the worldwide box office and will now fail to score high. Considering the opening, the film was expected to be the actor’s first 150 crores grosser, but now, it is heading for an end much below the mark of 150 crores. On the brighter side, it will be Balayya’s third highest-grossing film very soon. Keep reading for a collection report of 9 days!
Before the latest Sankranti release, the Tollywood star was last seen in Bhagavanth Kesari, released in October 2023. Balayya was coming to the big screen after a gap of over a year, so fans were excited for his latest biggie. As expected, it opened strongly, grossing over 40 crore on the opening day. Unfortunately, the film has failed to maintain its strong momentum.
The tremendous success of Venkatesh’s Sankranthiki Vasthunam has majorly impacted the run of Daaku Maharaaj. In India, the film has slowed down and is moving ahead at an ordinary pace. With Venky’s film attracting the major chunk of audiences, Balayya’s has suffered a lot and in 9 days, it has managed to earn just 79.62 crore net, as per Sacnilk. Including taxes, the gross domestic collection stands at 93.95 crores.
Overseas, Daaku Maharaaj has slowed down tragically after a strong start. The North American market, which is the major contributor, has gone down and is running the film in around 150 locations. Overall, the international tally stands at 17 crore gross (revised) approx.
Combining the Indian and overseas gross, Daaku Maharaaj stands at 110.95 crore gross at the worldwide box office after 9 days. With this sum, it is inches away from beating Bhagavanth Kesari’s 115.89 crore gross. Currently, Bhagavanth Kesari is Balayya’s third highest-grossing film of all time. The Sankranti release will also beat Akhanda’s 120.20 crore gross to become Balayya’s second highest-grosser.
Worldwide collection breakdown of Daaku Maharaaj:
- India net- 79.62 crores
- India gross- 93.95 crores
- Overseas gross- 17 crores
- Worldwide gross- 110.95 crores
