Saindhav Box Office Report: 2-Day Collections and Performance
Venkatesh’s “Saindhav” has completed two days in cinemas. While its first-day collection was decent, the film’s second-day collection witnessed a significant drop. This decline is attributed to intense competition from numerous big Telugu films already running, coupled with the release of another new Telugu film on the second day, which led to a reduction in “Saindhav’s” screen count. The film’s reviews have been described as okay-ish, contributing to its lower second-day collections compared to the first.
On its opening day, “Saindhav” recorded an India net collection of ₹3 crore 12 lakh. On the second day, the film’s India net collection was ₹1 crore 30 lakh. The cumulative two-day India net collection for “Saindhav” is ₹4 crore 42 lakh, with an India gross collection of ₹5 crore 10 lakh. From overseas markets, the film collected ₹1 crore 25 lakh. Thus, “Saindhav” has garnered a two-day worldwide box office collection of ₹6 crore 35 lakh. Given the film’s substantial budget, its two-day collection is significantly low.

Guntur Kaaram Box Office: Day 3 Collections and Performance Insights
Mahesh Babu’s “Guntur Kaaram” made a record-breaking collection on its opening day. However, the film experienced a significant drop in collections on its second and third days. Two main factors contributed to this decline: mixed to negative reviews, and a reduction in screen count. Screens initially allotted to “Guntur Kaaram” were transferred to “Hanuman” due to the latter’s positive reviews, and two more new Telugu films released on the second and third days further impacted screen availability. This resulted in decreasing daily collections for “Guntur Kaaram.”
On its first day, “Guntur Kaaram” garnered an India net collection of ₹53 crore. The second day saw a collection of only ₹13 crore 30 lakh India net. On the third day, being Sunday, a slight growth was observed in morning shows, with afternoon, evening, and night show bookings also appearing better than the previous day. As per reports, the film collected an India net of ₹23 crore 50 lakh on its third day.
The film’s cumulative three-day India net collection stands at ₹95 crore 80 lakh, with an India gross collection of ₹114 crore 20 lakh. Overseas, the film collected ₹41 crore 28 lakh. This brings the three-day worldwide box office collection for “Guntur Kaaram” to ₹155 crore 48 lakh. With a budget of ₹250 crore, the film has earned more than its budget from the worldwide market within three days.
Salaar Box Office Collection Update: 24-Day Worldwide Figures

The film performed well for its first three weeks as it faced no major competition. However, upon entering its fourth week, “Salaar” saw a considerable reduction in screens, primarily due to the release of five to seven new films in its original Telugu language, along with one or two new Bollywood films and some new Tamil and Malayalam releases. This has led to a significant decrease in the film’s collections.
“Salaar,” released in five languages (Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada), recorded an all-India net collection of ₹478 crore 21 lakh over its first 23 days. On its 24th day, the film collected an India net of ₹1 crore 75 lakh. This brings the total all-India net collection for “Salaar” to ₹479 crore 96 lakh.
