Despite a drop from Day 1, Andhra King Taluka maintains solid momentum, strong night shows, and impressive regional occupancy. Here’s the full box office breakdown, trends, and early verdict.
If there’s one Tollywood release that has managed to stir up a perfect mix of curiosity, masala, and mass hype this week, it’s Andhra King Taluka. Starring Ram Pothineni in a full-fledged commercial avatar and backed by Mythri Movie Makers, the film opened decently on Thursday and has now added another respectable chunk to its box office tally on Day 2. With audiences from Hyderabad to Chennai turning up in healthy numbers, the film is showing signs of steady hold in major regions.
A Solid Two-Day Total: ₹7.15 Crore India Net
After a respectable ₹4.15 crore India net opening, Andhra King Taluka collected an estimated ₹3.00 crore on Friday (Day 2). This brings the film’s two-day India total to ₹7.15 crore, which is a decent figure for a mid-scale mass entertainer released during a non-holiday frame.
While the Day 2 number reflects a dip—as is typical for a Friday after a Thursday release—the movie’s late-night shows and metropolitan occupancy have given trade analysts confidence that the film could stabilize over the weekend. With positive visibility in Telugu belts and strong night turnout, especially in Hyderabad and Visakhapatnam, the Saturday pick-up might push the numbers even higher.

How Andhra King Taluka Performed on Day 2
The film registered an overall 26.07% Telugu occupancy on Friday, which shows that despite mixed talk in some pockets, the core mass audience is turning up.

- Morning Shows: 17.28%
- Afternoon Shows: 23.76%
- Evening Shows: 25.67%
- Night Shows: 37.55%
The significant rise in late-night occupancy indicates strong word-of-mouth among mass action lovers and Ram Pothineni fans. This “late growth” pattern is typically a good sign, hinting at a more stable weekend trajectory.
Region-Wise Occupancy: Hyderabad, Vizag & Chennai Lead the Charge

- Hyderabad – 31.75% occupancy
The Nizam region remains the backbone of the film, with night shows hitting 47%. - Vizag-Visakhapatnam – 33.75%

One of the strongest territories for Day 2. - Chennai – A surprising standout with 44.67%

Why Andhra King Taluka Is Holding Its Ground
Several factors are helping the film maintain momentum:
1. Ram Pothineni’s Mass Appeal
Ram’s energetic action roles always bring in the mass crowds, and Andhra King Taluka rides on the same high-octane energy. His chemistry with Upendra and the ensemble cast adds flavor to the narrative.
2. Mythri Movie Makers’ Push
One thing Mythri Movie Makers always ensures is strong distribution in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. Their groundwork has helped the film secure decent screen counts across key towns.
3. Night Shows Are Growing
Unlike many mid-range releases that fade after day 1, Andhra King Taluka is showing growth where it matters—the night shows. This indicates that audiences walking out of theaters are recommending it to others.
4. A Commercial Template That Works
From punch dialogues to slow-motion action sequences, the film delivers what the mass crowd expects. While not necessarily groundbreaking, it’s exactly the kind of “weekend escape” film audiences look for.

About the Film: A True Commercial Cocktail
Directed by Mahesh Babu Pachigolla, Andhra King Taluka features:
- Ram Pothineni
- Upendra
- Bhagyashri Borse
- Rao Ramesh
- Murali Sharma
- VTV Ganesh
Packed with intense drama, action sequences, and whistle-worthy moments, the film follows the familiar yet engaging formula of political rivalry, personal vendettas, and power-packed heroism. Bhagyashri Borse’s presence has also been appreciated by both fans and critics.
Trade Expectations: Will the Weekend Lift the Pace?
If the film maintains the positive trend in its core regions, Andhra King Taluka could see a 10–12 crore weekend, depending on Saturday’s pickup. The makers will be eyeing a strong Sunday to ensure a comfortable first-week total.
Given the lack of strong competition and good regional support, the film has a fair chance at emerging a box office success, provided the growth sustains.
