BY CHRISTA LINCY
The latest box office release Andhra King Taluka has completed its extended opening weekend on a positive note. Released on a Thursday, the film capitalized on the four-day window to post a respectable total. After opening with Rs 4.15 Crore on Day 1, the movie witnessed a slight dip on Friday but managed to bounce back over the weekend. The total India Net collection now stands at Rs 14.73 Crore after four days, signaling a decent acceptance among the audience in the Telugu and Kannada markets. The film saw an upward trend on Saturday and Sunday, collecting Rs 3.65 Crore on both days, which helped stabilize its run after the Friday drop. In terms of global performance, Andhra King Taluka has crossed significant milestones. As per the latest trade updates, the movie has grossed approximately Rs 12.8 Crore in India and Rs 4 Crore in the overseas markets, taking its total Worldwide Collection to Rs 16.8 Crore. The steady performance in the domestic market, particularly in the Telugu states, has been the key driver for these numbers. Today marks the start of the weekdays for Andhra King Taluka after a four-day extended weekend. Early trends for Day 5 indicate a start of around Rs 0.18 Crore from the morning shows. As is the norm with working Mondays, the footfall is expected to be lower in the first half of the day compared to the weekend. The focus is now on how the numbers pick up during the evening and night shows. A steady trend today will help the film maintain a consistent run over the coming days, adding well to its overall total. Here is a look at the reported box office performance of Andhra King Taluka: Day India Net Collection Day 1 (1st Thursday) ₹ 4.15 Cr Day 2 (1st Friday) ₹ 3.10 Cr Day 3 (1st Saturday) ₹ 3.65 Cr Day 4 (1st Sunday) ₹ 3.65 Cr Day 5 (1st Monday) ₹ 0.18 Cr (Early Estimates) Total ₹ 14.73 Cr With a cumulative total nearing the Rs 15 Crore mark in India, Andhra King Taluka has laid a foundation for a respectable run. However, the drop on Monday morning suggests that the film will rely heavily on word-of-mouth to sustain through the weekdays. If the movie manages to stay afloat above the Rs 1 Crore mark on Monday, it will be well-positioned to close the first week with a healthy total.
