Telugu actor Anand Deverakonda has long been living under the shadow of his brother Vijay Deverakonda ever since his debut with Dorasaani in 2019. Things seem to take a turn now as his latest release Baby is doing wonders, both critically as well as commercially. Baby, which was released on July 14, has been doing phenomenal business at the box office. Having collected more than Rs 70 crore at the box office at the end of just 11 days, Baby has already surpassed the lifetime collections of Vijay Deverakonda’s biggest hit Arjun Reddy. Arjun Reddy had ended its box office run with a lifetime collection of Rs 51 crore.
According to reports, when calculated in terms of Return on Investment, Baby is one of the biggest hits of Telugu cinema. Rendering such collections in a post-pandemic world especially when both the Telugu states are being lashed with heavy rains, is quite commendable and impressive.
Sai Rajesh Neelam wrote and directed Baby, a coming-of-age romance drama. Anand Deverakonda, Vaishnavi Chaitanya, and Viraj Ashwin play the three main characters in the movie. The supporting cast includes Kusuma Degalamari, Lirisha Kunapareddy, Harsha Chemudu, Sathvik Anand, and Nagendra Babu. Baby, a Mass Movie Makers production, has been edited by Vipalav Nyshadam, cinematography by MN Balreddy, and music by Vijay Bulganin.
Along with great box office collections, the movie is also receiving words of appreciation from industry members. Raashi Khanna delivered an emotional speech at the screening of the film while director Sukumar of Pushpa fame also posted a highly positive review on social media. Even Allu Arjun was all praise for the film when he attended the appreciation meeting of Baby.
During his speech, producer SKN offered his gratitude for the love showered upon the film, adding that although housefull boards are rare during the rains, Baby is raining collections. He also expressed his happiness at having been able to deliver hits with both brothers under his banner Mass Movie Makers. Earlier, he had produced Vijay Devarakonda’s hit film Taxiwala.
