Tollywood has witnessed another box-office hit with Thandel, a romantic action drama directed by Chandoo Mondeti, starring Naga Chaitanya and Sai Pallavi. The film has resonated well with audiences, earning widespread acclaim. The production team recently announced that the Thandel box office collection has surpassed the ₹100 crore gross mark globally, making it the fastest film in Naga Chaitanya’s career to hit this milestone. Produced by Bunny Vas and presented by Allu Aravind, the movie’s engaging storyline, along with Devi Sri Prasad’s electrifying soundtrack and background score, has played a significant role in its success.
However, some box-office tracking portals and analysts have provided slightly different figures. Sources like Track Tollywood and other trade estimates suggest that Thandel has earned between ₹80 crore and ₹85 crore in its first 10 days. This discrepancy between official figures and independent trade reports is not uncommon in the industry. While the production team maintains that the Thandel box office collection has officially entered the ₹100 crore club, analysts believe it might take a few more days to confirm this milestone.
Despite the varied numbers, Thandel continues to enjoy a strong theatrical run with minimal competition. Thanks to positive word-of-mouth and a great audience reception, the film is expected to keep its momentum in the coming days, solidifying its status as a commercial success.
