Sometimes a quiet father-daughter story ends up outrunning the biggest openers of the year — and that’s exactly what’s happening with Irumudi.

[Ravi Teja’s](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ravi_Teja) emotional actioner added Rs. 14.50 crore on its second Saturday, pushing the India total past Rs. 134 crore. With over USD 2 million collected overseas, the worldwide gross now sits around Rs. 153.5 crore — a stunning number for a film that opened with modest expectations.

What makes this run remarkable is the company it’s keeping. Irumudi’s second Friday ranked as the second-highest Telugu box office day ever, trailing only RRR in gross while actually beating it on admissions. On the following Saturday, it settled third behind RRR and Pushpa 2 — solid company for a film without the scale of a solo mega-release.

## Irumudi: Key Numbers So Far

| Metric | Figure |
| --- | --- |
| India Total (9 days) | Rs. 134 crore |
| Overseas Total | USD 2.05 million |
| Worldwide Gross | Rs. 153.5 crore |
| 2nd Friday Rank (Telugu, all-time) | #2 (behind RRR) |
| 2nd Saturday Rank (Telugu, all-time) | #3 (behind RRR, Pushpa 2) |
| Nizam Territory Gross | Rs. 58.75 crore |

There’s a personal payoff story here too: Ravi Teja holds the Nizam distribution rights as part of his remuneration deal instead of a flat fee. With Nizam nearing the Rs. 100 crore mark, that arrangement could earn him upwards of Rs. 50 crore — a massive jump from his usual Rs. 7-8 crore paycheck.

Trade estimates suggest the Telugu states alone could cross Rs. 150 crore by the end of this week, with the film on pace to hit the Rs. 200 crore milestone by its fourth week.

This kind of steady, word-of-mouth-driven growth is rare for big Telugu releases, which usually dip hard after opening day.
