Chhava has taken the Telugu trade by surprise. While there were decent expectations for the Telugu version, it has exceeded them and shocked everyone.
Despite the Champions Trophy final, the Telugu version managed to earn impressive numbers. In its first weekend, the film grossed just over ₹10 crore in the Telugu states.
However, the real test begins tomorrow as the weekdays start. If the film holds strong on Monday, Telugu distributors are expected to earn handsome profits.
Allu Aravind acquired the Telugu rights for the film and strategically released it at a time when there were no major Telugu releases. This timing has played a crucial role in Chhava’s strong performance.
