The action-drama social thriller film “Kubera,” featuring Dhanush, Nagarjuna, and Rashmika Mandanna, saw a strong performance despite initial low buzz. The film’s reviews, which emerged after the first show, were super positive. It won the hearts of the Telugu audience, and despite slow bookings in Tamil Nadu, the collections from that region were also impressive. The film’s first-day earnings significantly exceeded expectations.
“Kubera” India and Worldwide Collections
“Kubera” was released in five languages – Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada – across 3000 screens worldwide, with a budget of approximately ₹120 crore.
