Andhra King Taluka Box Office Day 15: Ram Pothineni’s Mass Entertainer Slows Down After a Strong 14-Day Run

By ultapaltakhabar Dec 11, 2025 0

After two weeks of steady performance, Andhra King Taluka hits a halt on Day 15 with a ₹0 Cr collection, raising curiosity about its third-week momentum.

When Ram Pothineni decides to go full mass mode, Andhra King Taluka was always expected to rake in its share of whistles, footfalls, and unapologetic masala madness. And for 14 days straight, that’s exactly what happened. But Day 15 has brought the film to an unexpected pause, delivering a flat ₹0 Cr collection — a number that might sound shocking, but also reflects the natural exhaustion of a mid-scale regional entertainer during its third-week slowdown.

Still, with ₹22.68 Cr India net in 15 days, the film has accomplished a respectable run, especially given the competition from multiple releases across Telugu and Kannada circuits.

A Solid Opening Followed by a Consistent Weekend Surge

Andhra King Taluka started its theatrical journey on a strong note, pulling in ₹4.15 Cr on Day 1. Ram Pothineni’s fanbase, combined with Mythri Movie Makers’ brand value, ensured that the film made noise in both Telugu and Kannada belts. The opening weekend held steady:

Day 2: ₹3.1 Cr
Day 3: ₹3.65 Cr
Day 4: ₹3.7 Cr

The first four days alone brought in over ₹14 Cr, cementing the film as a respectable performer.

The Weekday Drop Was Expected — But Not This Sharp

Once the weekday phase kicked in, the fall was steep:

Day 5: ₹1.3 Cr
Day 6: ₹1.05 Cr
Day 7: ₹0.9 Cr

Week 1 closed at an impressive ₹18.6 Cr, a number that exceeded early trade predictions for a mass entertainer without holiday backing.

Week 2 Gives Hope — Weekend Jump, Then Back to Reality

The second Friday saw a noticeable drop to ₹0.6 Cr, but the film picked up beautifully on Saturday and Sunday:

Day 10: ₹1 Cr
Day 11: ₹1.15 Cr

This 2nd-weekend jump showed that the film still has pockets of audience interest, especially among action-movie lovers and Ram Pothineni loyalists.

But the weekdays again brought the momentum down:

Day 12: ₹0.45 Cr
Day 13: ₹0.47 Cr
Day 14: ₹0.41 Cr

That brought the total to ₹22.68 Cr — a solid number for a non-holiday Telugu-Kannada bilingual project.

Day 15: A Flat ₹0 Cr — Collection Freeze or Reporting Gap?

The Day 15 figure shows ₹0 Cr, which may likely be an update-related gap rather than an absolute zero. Usually, second-Thursday collections for mid-budget films hover in the range of ₹0.20–0.45 Cr, so the final number is expected to be updated once full reporting is in.

However, the near-zero occupancy shows that the film is nearing the end of its theatrical run in most circuits.

What Worked for Andhra King Taluka?

1. Ram Pothineni’s Full-Throttle Performance
His energetic screen presence, mass dialogue delivery, and high-voltage action sequences clicked with target audiences.

2. Upendra’s magnetic screen aura
Kannada star Upendra’s presence attracted viewers in Karnataka, contributing to the bilingual’s unique opening strength.

3. Mythri Movie Makers’ strong release strategy
Their distribution ensured wide availability in A, B, and C centers.

4. The mix of action, drama, and rural swagger
The film delivered what its core audience expected: entertainment without logic-heavy baggage.

What Didn’t Work?

1. Weak word-of-mouth in urban pockets
Multiplex audiences did not latch on, thereby restricting big weekday jumps.

2. Competition from major South releases
New releases in both Telugu and Kannada impacted screen retention by Week 2.

3. Content fatigue in mass genre offerings
The formula has worked often, but audiences now demand novelty.

How This Affects Ram Pothineni’s Box Office Graph

Andhra King Taluka adds a notable entry in Ram’s career post the fluctuating performances of his recent films. While not a blockbuster, the film has stabilized his mass market reputation and proves he still commands enough pull to deliver strong opening numbers.

Will Andhra King Taluka Reach ₹25 Cr?

The next two days will decide. If the film manages minor weekend footfalls, it could touch the ₹24.5–₹25 Cr mark before closing. But the chances depend heavily on how theatres retain the film in Week 3.
