Mahesh Babu‘s much anticipated movie, “Guntur Kaaram,” is gearing up for release. The movie has been generating immense buzz with its advance bookings and premiere sales high. Despite facing the challenge of high ticket prices due to extra show permissions like 1 AM shows, similar to blockbuster films like Salaar and RRR, the movie seems poised for a fantastic start at the box office.

What sets “Guntur Kaaram” apart is the winning combination of Mahesh Babu’s star power and the influence of director Trivikram, which has been instrumental in drawing audiences to cinemas. The advance bookings in Hyderabad have already surpassed an impressive Rs 5 crore, indicating a strong initial response.

Comparatively, notable films like RRR and Salaar had substantial advance bookings of around 10.8 crore and 10.4 crore respectively on major booking platforms for their opening days. “Guntur Kaaram” is projected to surpass these figures even before its screenings commence.

The 1 AM shows have been acquired by third parties at record prices in Hyderabad, with reports of a single-screen 1 AM show being sold for a staggering Rs 13 lakh, highlighting the film’s immense anticipation and demand. With the combination of a well-established brand in Mahesh Babu and the allure of Trivikram‘s direction, “Guntur Kaaram” appears set to make a remarkable and memorable opening at the box office in Hyderabad.
