The film is doing well in theatres and it has collected around Rs 35-50 crore in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, according to reports. Performances of Nani and Sai Pallavi have been appreciated by the audience and critics.
The popularity of Nani down south can be gauged from the fact that Shyam Singha Roy has performed well despite a clash with two big starrer movies like Allu Arvind’s Pushpa: The Rise and Nandamuri Balakrishna’s Akhanda.
