Naga Chaitanya's 'Thandel' Worldwide Theatrical Business Details
Hyderabad, February 5 - After a back-to-back couple of box office failures, Telugu actor Naga Chaitanya's romantic action thriller Thandel is gearing up to hit the big screens on February 7 amid high expectations. The movie has created a good buzz and is set for a better start this weekend.



Thandel reunites Naga Chaitanya with actress Sai Pallavi after the superhit Love Story (2021), which was the only solo hit for the former post the Covid-19 pandemic. The movie is directed by Chandu Mondeti, whose last directorial, Karthikeya 2, was a huge blockbuster at the box office.



Despite poor recent records for Chaitanya, Thandel has managed to fetch career-best pre-release theatrical business for the actor. According to T2BLive, the Telugu states (Andhra Pradesh and Telangana) business of the movie is valued at approximately 27.50 crores, including 10.50 crores for the Nizam area.



Apart from AP/TG, the rest of India business is at 3.50 crores, while overseas business is locked at 6 crore, for total worldwide theatrical business at 37 crores. The movie will need to score 38 crores share or 60+ crores gross collection worldwide to emerge as a box office hit.



Produced by Geetha Arts, Thandel has to become the biggest solo grosser for Naga Chaitanya to be deemed a box-office success, which is not going to be an easy task. However, the makers are confident the film will enter the 100 crores club and will emerge as a big success.
