Box Office: Dead Air Shuts Tollywood

The usually lucrative summer season has been torn to shreds by Tollywood with not a single star hero film hitting the theaters. Even the films that have hit the box office recently have wrapped up their run.

Tillu Square and Family Star are done with the theatrical and the subsequent week release, Geethanjali Malli Vachindi has also bombed big time.

With not a single new choice, the Tollywood box office exhibited dead air last weekend and Tollywood filmmakers have no one to blame but themselves.

Had any other mainstream hero come up with even a decent product, the existing vacuum and the summer season advantage could have worked wonderfully well for their films. But strangely, not a single notable film has hit the theaters.

Tillu Square is a clear winner at the box office with its Rs 100+ cr grossing final run. What must be noted is that Tollywood has produced only two blockbusters in 2024 – HanuMan and Tillu Square.

Kalki which was earlier slated for summer release opted out and this meant that the only star film for summer has also vacaed the spot, leaving space for dead vacuum.
