What This Tells Us
- Massive opening, sharp collapseThe film debuted with strong matchbox ratings—huge pre‑sales (₹ 12.75 cr previews) plus Day 1 numbers gave Pawan Kalyan one of the biggest openings of his career. But Day 2 saw a dramatic fall of nearly 77%, indicating immediate word‑of‑mouth rejection or poor critical response that dampened the momentum
Veera Mallu Success Epic Day 2 & 3 Box Office Day 3 continued low momentum, inching only into single‑digit range (~₹ 3 cr), showing that Saturday, usually stronger than Friday, lacked the usual weekend lift.
- Critical and audience response matters early
Reviews were mixed at best, with critics bemoaning weak screenplay, VFX, slower second half even while praising Pawan’s aura and grand set pieces. Leaks circulating online may also have hurt interest. This early audience feedback clearly impacted box office return from Day 2 onward
- Sets risky tone for next days
Veera Mallu Success Epic Day 2 & 3 Box Office The first three days collectively sum to ~₹ 60 cr net. For a film reportedly made on a ₹ 250–300 cr punch‑budget, this is underwhelming. To recover costs, it must depend on strong footfalls in Days 4–7 (Sunday to Wednesday), plus overseas and non‑theatrical deals. But the Day 3 lull suggests waning interest even in the weekend window.
- Comparison with similar films
The drop stunned analysts: in contrast, Pawan’s Bro and Bheemla Nayak, both post‑COVID, saw Day 2 numbers over ₹ 17–19 cr. This is lowest Day 2 for him in this era
Context: Why July 25 & 26 Numbers Are Crucial
- 25 July 2025 (Friday) was the second full day of screening critical to sustain opening buzz. Instead, it marked a collapse.
- 26 July 2025 (Saturday) is often a pickup (weekend), but here remained weak implying limited pull-through.
- Analysts and studios rely heavily on these two days to predict weekend totals and week‑one forecasts. With their performance, significant pressure builds on word-of-mouth recovery or upcoming Hindi-dubbed and international market performance unlikely given early North America reports ($111K opening)
Summary
Veera Mallu Success Epic Day 2 & 3 Box Office
Pawan Kalyan’s Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Part 1 – Sword vs Spirit was released July 24–25, 2025. After earning a sizeable ₹ 12.75 cr from paid previews on July 24, the movie recorded a strong Day 1 opening (Thursday) of ₹ 34.75 cr net in India (across Telugu, Hindi, Kannada, Tamil, Malayalam), bringing the two-day net total to ₹ 47.50 cr or ₹ 55.5 cr including previews. However on Day 2 (Friday, 25 July), collections plunged by ~75‑77% to ₹ 8.0–8.8 cr. Despite crossing ₹ 50 cr in two days, momentum collapsed quickly due to mixed reviews and poor word-of-mouth.
Veera Mallu Success Epic Day 2 & 3 Box Office On Day 3 (Saturday, 26 July), live estimates from Sacnilk put the takings at ₹ 3.31 cr net (some places report as low as ₹ 1.95 cr, or early data ~₹ 3.06 cr by 4 pm). The three‑day India net runs to roughly ₹ 59–60 cr. Average Telugu occupancy hovered in the low‑20s percent, with half‑day shows performing below par; regional occupancy figures varied with Chennai showing unexpectedly higher afternoon occupancy (~40%), Hyderabad ~25–26%

Thus, for 25 and 26 July 2025, the film drew barely ₹ 8 cr and ~₹ 3 cr respectively highlighting a swift decline after a promising debut. Industry watchers now await Sunday (Day 4) performance to see if any weekend recovery is possible. With such a box office trajectory and a high production cost, the film’s commercial viability hinges on strong regional fill‑ups and non‑theatrical revenue streams but early signs point toward underperformance unless major turnaround occurs quickly.
