Box Office: 'Guntur Kaaram' and 'Hanuman' Third Day/First Sunday Early Estimates

Hyderabad, January 14 - Superstar Mahesh Babu's Guntur Kaaram has shown a good hold today compared to its second day at the domestic box office. Though the movie hasn't shown a big spike, it came on the positive side of yesterday's collection, which is good.

According to early estimates, the action drama film scored around 14-15 crores net (16-17 crores gross) collection on its first Sunday, pushing the total collection to around 69 crores net (81 crores gross) after the first 3-day opening weekend.



Despite the mixed reviews, the film didn't drop, which can be seen as a positive trend and the same is expected over the next couple of days during the Pongal holidays. The hold in coming a few days is a must otherwise the film might struggle to get going post-holidays.

Meanwhile, the sensational blockbuster of the season, Hanuman has shown a further spike on its third day, both in Telugu and Hindi versions. According to early estimates, the superhero movie scored 15-16 crores net (18+ crores gross) collection on its first Sunday, jumping around 25% from its second day.

In Hindi, Hanuman minted 6+ crores net while the Telugu version scored 9+ crores net, as per the estimates. The total collection of the movie after the first three days is around 40+ crores net (47+ crores gross), including 12+ crores in Hindi and 27.50 crores in the Telugu version.

Hanuman is moving towards a massive blockbuster success at the box office and it will soon top 100 crores worldwide which is itself a big achievement considering how things have unfolded over the last week or so.
