Peddi’s Box Office Journey Continues Strong
Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor’s sports action drama Peddi is proving to be a solid performer at the box office, crossing the prestigious Rs 200 crore mark in India. According to industry tracker Sacnilk, the film collected Rs 8.10 crore net on its second Saturday (Day 10), marking a healthy 57.3% growth from Friday’s Rs 5.15 crore. This strong weekend performance has pushed the film’s total India net collection to Rs 206.80 crore, comfortably surpassing the Rs 200 crore milestone.
The film had wrapped up its first week with an impressive Rs 193.55 crore net, and the weekend jump shows that word-of-mouth is still working in its favour. On the gross front, Peddi has accumulated Rs 245.53 crore in India so far, with strong contributions from Telugu-speaking regions.
Overseas Performance Adds to Momentum
Overseas, the film continues to hold its own. On Day 10, it added Rs 1 crore from international markets, taking its overseas gross to Rs 51 crore. The current worldwide gross collection now stands at Rs 296.53 crore, inching closer to the Rs 300 crore mark. The film’s Telugu version remains the biggest contributor, recording an overall occupancy of 40.33% on Day 10, with evening and night shows seeing the best response.
Region-wise, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana once again led the state-wise collections with Rs 7 crore gross, followed by Karnataka at Rs 1.30 crore. The rest of India added Rs 1.10 crore, while Tamil Nadu contributed Rs 15 lakh. The film is holding up better than many big releases, and with strong weekend numbers and decent word-of-mouth, it is steadily marching towards becoming one of the bigger commercial successes of the year for Telugu cinema.
What’s Next for the Sports Drama?
As Peddi moves into the weekdays of its second week, industry insiders suggest that the film’s performance will depend on how well it sustains its momentum. With the Rs 300 crore worldwide gross within sight, the film’s team is optimistic about crossing that milestone in the coming days. The sports drama has already proven its mettle at the box office, and with no major competition in the immediate pipeline, it could continue to rake in numbers.
For now, fans of Ram Charan and Janhvi Kapoor have reason to celebrate as their film continues to roar at the box office, proving that a well-made sports drama can still draw crowds to theatres.
