The Kannada film industry has yet another reason to celebrate as Mahavatar Narsimha, the animated devotional spectacle directed by Ashwin Kumar, continues its unstoppable run at the box office.

In an official announcement, the makers revealed that the movie has crossed the ₹200 crore gross milestone worldwide — and it achieved this remarkable feat in just 17 days.

With this achievement, Mahavatar Narsimha has become only the 4th Kannada movie to enter the ₹200 crore club, excluding digital and satellite rights. Its popularity has extended beyond Karnataka, with dubbed versions — especially in Telugu — contributing to its massive success.

Even with major releases like Coolie and War 2 lined up for August 14, 2025, trade experts believe that Mahavatar Narsimha will continue to hold strong, especially given its strong family appeal and devotional theme.

Produced by Kleem Productions and presented by Hombale Films, the movie has set a new benchmark for animated films in India. All eyes are now on how much higher it can climb in the coming weeks.
