Harsh Roshan scored a hit with Court but later faced a setback with Band Melam. He is now back with Tella Kagitham, directed by debutant Ramesh Bandreddy and produced by Krishna Kommalapati.
Leaked footage created buzz around the film, while the team’s police complaint added to the attention. Released on October 2nd, Tella Kagitham received positive talk, especially for its youthful elements and second half. The film opened decently, though not at the level of Court.
Here are its first weekend collections:
| Nizam | 0.48 crore |
| Ceded | 0.12 crore |
| Andhra (Total) | 0.63 crore |
| AP+Telangana(Total) | 1.23 crore (share) |
| Rest of India+ Overseas | 0.38 crore |
| Worldwide Total (Gross) | 1.61 crore (share) |
Tella Kagitham has a Rs 5 crore break-even target and collected Rs 1.61 crore share in its first weekend. The film earned around Rs 3 crore gross and needs another Rs 3.39 crore share to break even. Strong weekday collections are crucial.
