Nandamuri Balakrishna has crossed the prestigious ₹100-crore pre-release mark, proving his unstoppable mass power at the box office. His latest film Akhanda2 – Thaandavam has posted a stunning ₹114.25 crore worldwide business, marking the highest pre-release deal of his career.
For Balayya, hitting big numbers has become a habit in recent years. After films like Daaku Maharaaj (₹80.70 crore), Veera Simha Reddy (₹73 crore), and Bhagavanth Kesari (₹67.35 crore), the star has now delivered his first-ever ₹100-plus crore pre-release film. What makes this even more impressive is the jump of nearly ₹34 crore from his previous best — a clear sign of Balakrishna’s expanding market and electrifying fanbase.
The transformation is remarkable. From a phase of back-to-back flops years ago to now delivering consistent, large-scale business, Balayya has rebuilt his box office range like few others in Tollywood. The buzz around Akhanda2 has been exceptional, and trade experts say the film’s strong pre-release numbers reflect massive confidence from distributors and exhibitors.
With the ₹100-crore milestone comfortably crossed, the focus now shifts to theatrical performance. If the current hype is anything to go by, Akhanda2 – Thaandavam is expected to open with explosive collections and may well become one of the biggest hits in Balakrishna’s career.
