Peddi Slows as Worldwide Total Reaches Rs 331–332 Crore
Sharp weekday drops plus a reported Rs 350 crore budget make full recoupment unlikely.
Overview
- The Ram Charan–Janhvi Kapoor sports drama opened to a blockbuster first week but has shown clear slowdown in later weeks, with trade trackers reporting a roughly Rs 331–332 crore global total after about 20 days.
- Weekday business fell steeply during the third week, with estimates showing a roughly 70.6% decline to about Rs 0.83 crore net on Monday and a further Rs 0.80 crore net on Tuesday from roughly 1,709 shows.
- Domestic net collections sit around Rs 235 crore while overseas receipts total about Rs 52.9 crore, with Andhra Pradesh and Telangana still the film’s strongest markets.
- At a reported production cost of Rs 350 crore, industry estimates place recovery at roughly two-thirds of the budget and say further theatrical gains are unlikely to close the remaining gap.
- Given the current pace, analysts expect Peddi to finish near Tollywood’s tenth-highest worldwide grosser and not overtake Pushpa’s roughly Rs 352 crore, which leaves clear questions about final profitability for the makers.
