Box Office at a glance
Peddi, the Ram Charan starrer sports action drama directed by Buchi Babu Venkata, collected 220.1 crore net in India during its 12-day run at the Indian box office. The film opened to 69.5 crore (including paid previews’ 18.5 crore), delivering a strong but front-loaded run.
Peddi at the Indian box office so far
Peddi registered a solid start of 69.5 crore, including 18.5 crore from paid previews. During the 4-day extended opening weekend, it scored 157.65 crore. During the weekdays, it saw much higher drops than expected, and added 35.9 crore between day 5 and day 8. Overall, it concluded its 8-day extended opening week at 193.55 crore at the Indian box office.
It started the second week on a decent note by scoring 5.15 crore on the second Friday, day 9. It picked up well on day 10 and day 11, adding 8.1 crore and 9.2 crore, respectively. So, during the second weekend, the film scored 22.45 crore. On the second Monday, day 12, it displayed a decent hold, scoring 4.1 crore. Overall, the Ram Charan starrer has earned 220.1 crore net in 12 days.
What does it mean going forward?
220.1 crore net at the Indian box office in the first 12 days is undeniably large, and a reflection of just how much muscle Ram Charan’s name carries at the ticket window. But context matters. Peddi is reportedly one of the most expensive Telugu films in recent times, with 350 crore. With collections slowing down (except for weekends), the film is now in a dicey position and needs a miraculous turnaround in the coming days.
